Michelin has unveiled the ALPIN 7 winter tyre, featuring an advanced tread design with additional sipes and an evolving tread pattern to maintain traction as the tyre wears. The new model aims to enhance braking and acceleration on snowy and wet roads while improving overall efficiency for a variety of vehicles. Unlike the Alpin 6, which was considered a bit overpriced for its performance, the Alpin 7 is expected to offer better value and address concerns in upcoming winter tests.
MICHELIN Alpin 7 offers improved winter safety and braking on snow-covered roads by 6%, with a 9% reduction in rolling resistance for reduced energy consumption.
Designed for all vehicle types (combustion, electric, hybrid) with 62 available dimensions, suitable for various mid-range sedans.
Includes new rubber mixture for low temperatures, directional tread for increased grip on wet and snow-covered roads, and progressive sipes for consistent performance throughout tire life.
Utilizes Michelin's 3D metal printing technology for complex tire molds, enabling innovative design features to maintain performance levels and meet new EU regulations on tire performance.
