In the summer tire performance test hosted by ADAC magazine, which boasts a 120-year history and the largest circulation in Germany, Kumho Tire’s ‘ECSTA HS52’ ranked third overall behind Continental and Michelin, receiving the highest evaluation among domestic companies.


This test was conducted by ADAC purchasing representative European summer tires (size 215/55R 17) from 16 global tire companies, including Kumho Tire.


The evaluation criteria included driving satisfaction on dry and wet surfaces (Driving Safety) and satisfaction with environmental balance factors such as mileage, wear, noise, and sustainability.


Kumho Tire achieved third place overall and received the highest (Good) grade, awarded only to top-tier companies.


The ‘ECSTA HS52’ is designed to provide drivers with a comfortable driving experience and high safety, making it suitable for both sedans and sports vehicles.


By applying a solid block design to the tread pattern, the tire maintains consistent road friction pressure when in contact with the road surface, reducing impact and noise while improving ride comfort.



Additionally, by incorporating high-tech technology, the firm and strong shoulder blocks enhance handling performance, aiding stable driving.
