Hankook renews its UHP winter tire range with the new Winter i*cept evo 3 (W330) for passenger cars and the Winter i*cept evo 3 X (W330A) for SUVs. This new development is focused not only on changing weather conditions, but also on the requirements for hybrid and electric vehicles. This is due to the fact that in the future manufacturers plan to equip them with these new winter UHP tires from Hankook directly at the factory. For the first time, the company's engineers have chosen a directional tread pattern for a new flagship winter tire. This solution not only provides excellent grip when driving on snow, but also effectively reduces the risk of aquaplaning.
“The Winter i*cept evo 3 (W330) and Winter i*cept evo 3 X (W330A) models are two lines of winter tires created by our development engineers with a wide range of characteristics that respond especially well to changing and extremely difficult winter weather conditions. "Said Mr. Sanghoon Lee, President of Hankook Tire Europe. “Therefore, we are confident that the new models will meet the high expectations of our customers, including in terms of modern driving concepts.”
