Description
The Hankook K127A Ventus S1 evo3 SUV is a high-performance summer tire designed for SUVs, emphasizing excellent handling and optimal performance in wet conditions. It features a high-grip full-silica tread compound and a special mixing technology for improved braking in the wet and reduced rolling resistance. The tire also incorporates features like interlocking outside grooves for wet grip and hydroplaning resistance, and an Aramid Hybrid Reinforcement Belt for increased strength and durability.
Key Features and Technologies:
- This compound enhances driving performance and mileage by improving the vulcanization process and blending between molecules.
- Increases tire strength to handle high initial output and acceleration, while also contributing to ride comfort by absorbing external shocks.
- Improve wet grip and prevent hydroplaning, enhancing safety in wet conditions.
- Dual Pitch Design (Inside & Outside):Optimizes the tire’s contact with the road for better performance in both wet and dry conditions, and also helps reduce pattern noise.
- Maximizes road contact and distributes forces evenly during acceleration, braking, and cornering, contributing to increased mileage.
- Sidewall Design:Reinforces block stiffness and improves thermal circulation, air permeability, and ride comfort.
Performance Highlights:
- Wet Performance: The K127A excels in wet conditions with good braking and straight-line aquaplaning resistance, though it may struggle slightly in wet cornering and handling.
- Dry Performance: The tire offers decent dry handling and braking capabilities.
- Refinement: It provides a smooth and comfortable ride with low cabin noise and good bump absorption.
- Fuel Economy: The tire offers decent fuel efficiency.
