Product description
- Sports tyre
- Reduce braking distances
- Improved handling on wet roads
A tyre designed for sports use, the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo² offers drivers a good balance between high performance and fuel savings.
Handling: the specific composites used in the rubber compound make for improved braking on the wet and the dry. The tyre’s high-density steel carcass gives it its rigidity offering a typical sports drive. Cornering grip is enhanced by the 3D blocks. Excellent handling on wet surfaces thanks to the wide grooves in the directional tread, which make for effective water drainage.
Performance: the wing tips at the base of the grooves disperse heat more effectively, giving the tyres a longer lifespan. The styrene polymer used in the compound reduces rolling resistance and improves performance on the wet.
What is the rezulteo score?
The rezulteo score is calculated considering three performance categories: economy, comfort and safety. When it comes to winter tyres, the performance criteria snow and ice are added. By weighting different basic performance criteria an overall score is determined. This weighting is calculated based on the tyre size category: economic, high performance or sports.
