Hercules Avalanche XUV
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Winter weather traction
- Enhanced controllability
- High driving comfort levels
OVERVIEW
The Hercules Avalanche XUV is a touring, winter tire made for SUVs.
This tire offers excellent winter-weather traction thanks to the detailed tread design and the winter compound. Their combination helps to increase the winter weather, ice, and snow traction. Thin-gauge sipes and the Snow Grabber Grooves generate biting edges, creating traction to improve its ice- and snow-covered road surface conditions. This also boosts snow-on-snow traction. Stronger rubber materials keep the tire pliable in freezing temperatures. Hydroplaning is avoided as zigzag circumferential grooves, which channel water and slush from below the footprint.
Great controllability is offered with this model. The stable ribbed tread design maintains surface contact while the tires are in motion, improving their steering responsiveness and driving stability. Quicker and more precise steering responses are guaranteed with this model, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. The thin-gauge sipes manage to effectively improve its cornering and maneuvering ability. Cornering elements firmly grip the road surface with extra biting edges. These elements generate friction in order to shorten the tire's overall braking distance.
The Avalanche XUV maintains surface contact at all times. Close road contact helps to absorb the shock of driving, minimizing vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. Since road disturbances do not reach the vehicle's cabin, ensuring its safer performance. As a result, the tire offers a comfortable driving experience.
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.
