Audi SUV Q5 Runs Equipped with Kumho Tire

Supply of 'Cruzen Premium'

[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] Kumho Tire announced that it will supply the 'Crugen Premium (KL33ㆍphoto)' as original equipment (OE) tires for the German Audi's sports utility vehicle (SUV) 'Audi Q5'.

The Crugen Premium supplied to the Audi Q5 is Kumho Tire's best-selling tire dedicated to SUVs. It is equipped with functions such as handling on the road, braking power, and high-speed driving stability to realize sports performance optimized for high-performance SUVs, attracting attention as an SUV-specific tire not only in Korea but also overseas. In particular, Kumho Tire explains that it is regarded as the standard for SUV tires because it allows the quietness and comfortable ride of a luxury sedan to be felt even in an SUV.

Upgraded silica compound material improves fuel efficiency, and an optimized platform is applied to secure ride comfort and quietness. The contact surface pattern is designed to improve driving stability and wear performance, and thanks to semi-nailing (adding patterns on the block surface to prevent slipping) and 3D blocks within the blocks, as well as four wide drainage grooves, stable driving is possible even on wet roads such as rainy surfaces.

Currently, the Audi Q5 is produced at the Mexico plant for the global market, and the Kumho Tires mounted on this model are supplied from the Georgia plant.

Insoo Kim, Executive Director of OE Sales at Kumho Tire, said, "The supply of Audi Q5 OE this time is the result of our product being recognized for quality and technology as it is supplied in large quantities as the main specification," adding, "We will strive to develop dedicated tires that can satisfy customers and drivers."
