OK on Rainy and Snowy Roads in the Americas... Hankook Tire Launches 'Kinergy XP' Locally

New All-Season Grand Touring Tire
Enhanced Wet Surface Braking and Handling
Improved Tire Longevity and Ride Comfort Maintained

Hankook Tire & Technology is targeting the North American market with a new product from its comfort tire brand 'Kinergy.'

On the 24th, Hankook Tire announced the launch of the all-season grand touring tire 'Kinergy XP' in the North American market.

'Kinergy XP' is a grand touring product that embodies Hankook Tire's all-season tire technology. It can be fitted on various vehicle types, including sedans and sport utility vehicles (SUVs).

It features enhanced braking and handling performance on wet roads and snowy surfaces. By increasing the number of sipes (fine grooves) on the tire surface and adopting a special shoulder groove (thick horizontal groove on the tire sidewall) design, it increases the contact area with the ground, improving acceleration and braking performance on snow.

Among Kinergy brand products, it also boasts the best tire lifespan (mileage). Through optimal profile design that evenly distributes contact pressure and shape during driving, and the application of the latest compound, it has significantly reduced abnormal tire wear.

Additionally, technologies such as 'Knurling,' which minimizes resonance noise for ride comfort, shoulder groove expansion, and optimal 'multi-pitch sequencing' have been applied.

Hankook Tire stated, "With this new product launch, we will strengthen the Kinergy brand lineup and further solidify our leading position in the North American all-season tire market."
