Snow and ice performance

• Feature: Directional V-shaped tread pattern with greater edge length and edge density
  
• Effects: Improved build-up of forces in longitudinal and lateral direction
  
• Benefits: Very good handling characteristics and winter performance
  

Aquaplaning

• Feature: V-shaped tread pattern + wide lateral grooves in shoulder section
  
• Effects: Excellent water pick-up and very good water dispersion
• Benefits: Improved aquaplaning safety
  

Rolling resistance

• Feature: Rolling resistance-optimised tyre design
  
• Effects: Minimised tyre flexing means reduced energy loss when entering the ground contact patch
  
• Benefits: High economy, thanks to reduced fuel consumption

Handling/braking on dry roads

• Feature: V-shaped sipes in wide and compact shoulder blocks
• Effects: Increased block stiffness in lateral and longitudinal direction due to sipe interlocking and block compactness
• Benefits: Good handling and braking performance on dry roads with enhanced characteristics in snow
