Hankook Kinergy Eco 2 K435: The Summer Tyre You Need
Searching for a reliable summer tyre? Meet the Hankook Kinergy Eco 2 K435. Perfect for modern small, compact, and mid-range cars, this tyre promises top-notch performance, come rain or shine. Here’s why you’ll love it.
Rock-Solid Performance
The Kinergy Eco 2 K435 is all about versatility:
Wet Performance: With its wide lateral shoulder grooves, this tyre laughs in the face of hydroplaning, ensuring great handling and braking on wet roads.
Aqua-Edge Tech & Optimum Chamfer: These features boost wet braking without compromising handling. They let the tyre’s contact area widen instantly during braking, giving you better traction.
Hydroplaning? Not Here
Driving on wet roads can be a drag, but not with these tyres:
Wide Straight 3 Channel Groove: Smartly positioned grooves ensure you glide smoothly even in wet conditions. The wide outer grooves efficiently chuck water away, boosting wet traction and keeping the tyre cooler in dry conditions.
Aqua Turbine Technology: This nifty tech improves water drainage, both lengthwise and sideways, so your tyres grip the road better.
Shhh... Less Noise
Nobody wants a noisy ride, and with the Kinergy Eco 2 K435, you’re in for a quiet journey:
Optimised Pitch Sequence: Specially designed block sizes cut down road noise, making your drive quieter and more comfortable.
Smart Tyre Structure
High Grip Silica Compound: Enhances both dry and wet traction while reducing rolling resistance.
Jointless Full Cover Reinforcement Belt: Offers perfect tread strength.
Wide Steel Belt Layer: Expands the contact area width for superior handling.
Equilibrium Polyester Carcass Line: Boosts sidewall stiffness and durability without sacrificing comfort.
High Stiffness Bead Filler & Strong Single Strand Bead Wire: Improves handling, steering response, uniformity, and tyre fitting.
In short, the Hankook Kinergy Eco 2 K435 is your go-to for a safe, quiet, and efficient ride. Give it a spin and feel the difference!
The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher. (Source: European Commission Impact Assessment * when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note: Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).* *Source: wdk Economic Association of the German Rubber Industry eV
Please note: Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016. B The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016. C The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.
