Federal Couragia XUV

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All weather traction
• Enhanced controllability
• Reduced road noise levels
• Longer lasting tread life

OVERVIEW

The Federal Couragia XUV is a highway terrain all season tire manufactured for SUVs and light trucks. This model has some touring sizes for passenger vehicles as well.

The tire promotes great all weather traction. The tread pattern with the detailed siping design finds firm grip in dry, wet and winter weather to ensure exceptional performance all year. The four wide circumferential grooves manage to actively resist hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire's footprint. The better hydroplaning resistance and all weather traction increase the tire's driving safety throughout the year.

The special tread design also improves the model's controllability. The solid center rib and the shoulder tread block placement increases the steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the steering is faster and more precise, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure. The shoulder tread blocks also enhance the number of biting edges that firmly grip the road surface during cornering and maneuvering. The safer cornering capability ensures a secure driving experience in all weather.

The asymmetric tread design with the siping detail manages to evenly distribute the driving pressure along the tread area. This enhances the tread life by actively preventing irregular tread wear formations. The longer lasting tread life upgrades the tire's usability greatly, making the model more cost efficient. The tread design also manages to channel the airwaves through the footprint without letting them come into contact of the tread elements. In this manner, the siping detail decreases the road noise heard in the vehicle's cabin and ensures a quiet and enjoyable drive.

The Couragia XUV features a reinforced structure. The maintained optimal shape under the load and driving pressure enables the model to perform to its best ability. The twin steel belts and the polyester body optimize the tire's shape and keep its road contact in all weather. As a result, the tire is capable of performing well in all conditions with ease.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
