The latest member of the MICHELIN CrossClimate range, the expert 4-season tires, for SUVs
On May 1, Michelin launched the MICHELIN CrossClimate 2 SUV tire in Europe. A new generation of 4-season tires that combine multiple performances, the MICHELIN CrossClimate 2 SUV tire allows you to contend with the majority of weather conditions, no matter the season. A 3PMSF (3 Peak Mountain Snow Flake)certified tire, it copes with drops in temperature and occasional snowfall.

The leader for braking on snow, and on dry and wet ground, as well as fortraction on snow1
The MICHELIN CrossClimate SUV tire benefits from an innovative combination of cutting-edge technologies such as the MICHELIN EverGrip technologies that contribute to optimize braking on dry, wet, or snow-covered ground
The expert 4-season tire, MICHELIN CrossClimate 2 SUV is the leading tire
o snow2, an average of 5 meters;
o wet ground3, 2 meters on average (tires at the legal wear limit);
o and dry ground4.
Compared to its competitors, it thus allows for gaining almost 20% traction5 onsnow. The MICHELIN CrossClimate 2 SUV tire is homologated for winter use andconsequently benefits from the 3PMSF mark.
The leader in terms of longevity, with no comprise on safety1:performances made to last right up to the legal wear limit
Thanks to the MaxTouch Construction technology, the MICHELIN CrossClimate 2SUV tire allows for driving an additional6 5000 kilometers on average, compared topremium competitor tires, while maintaining a high level of safety, even when thetire is at legal tread wear limit2-3-4, and regardless of the weather conditions.By avoiding premature removal every season, the tires are changed less often. Drivers can therefore control their budgets thanks to an extended tire lifespan. Less tires to replace also means less material to be used and less waste generatedfor the planet. As of May 1, the MICHELIN CrossClimate 2 SUV tire will be available in 40 dimensionsfrom 17 to 20 inches. It is aimed at drivers seeking a safe ride first and foremost,regardless of the SUV category.
1 Balance of performance - Balance of performance proven by tests conducted in 2020 and 2021 on Dry braking, Wet braking new and worn,Snow braking new and worn, Snow traction new and worn, Longevity - see test details in legal mentions 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 - MICHELIN CrossClimate2 SUV grabs 8 leading positions out of 8 tests. Legal wear limit or "worn" mean when worn on machine (buffed) to the depth of Tread WearIndicator according to European regulation: ECE R30r03f.2 Snow braking tests - Snow braking tests, conducted by TÜV SÜD Product Service on Michelin’s request, between 50 and 0 kph, October2021 – January 2022 (on new and on 2mm buffed), on dimension 235/60 R18 107V and 107W on Audi Q5 40TDI 204hp, Audi Q5 50TFSIe300hp comparing MICHELIN CrossClimate 2 SUV (new : 30,5m - worn : 38,4m) versus BRIDGESTONE Weather Control A005 EVO (new : 37,1m - worn : 57,3 m) ; CONTINENTAL AllSeasonContact (new : 32,6 m - worn : 46,0 m) ; GOODYEAR Vector 4Seasons SUV Gen-3 (new : 33,9 m- worn : 45,8 m) ; PIRELLI Scorpion Vere All Season SF (new : 42,5 m - worn : 62,7 m).
