Michelin e.Primacy

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Summer performance
• Improved controllability
• Fuel-efficient driving experience
• Longer-lasting tread life

OVERVIEW

The Michelin e.Primacy is a touring, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.

This model offers excellent controllability. The asymmetric tread design keeps the road contact at all times, which significantly improves steering responsiveness and driving stability. As a result, this improves the steering response time and accuracy to the driver's instructions, while the structure is stabilized against driving pressure. At the same time, the optimal tread blocks strongly grip the road surface for better cornering and maneuvering. Thanks to these elements the driver has full control over the vehicle.

Excellent summer weather traction is promoted, with this asymmetric tread design and summer compound. These elements work together to improve dry and wet road grip. In this manner, the asymmetric tread design firmly grips the road surface, while the compound prevents heat build-up along the tread area in warm summer conditions. The tire can also avoid hydroplaning, thanks to the large circumferential grooves on the tread area. They eliminate water from the footprint and promote a safe driving experience.

This tread design and rubber compound lengthen the tire's service life and usability. In other words, the tread design evenly distributes driving pressure along the tread area, while the compound slows the tread wear rate down. As a result, these elements prevent irregular and premature wear formations, which leads to longer-lasting tread life.

The Michelin e.Primacy has optimal tread elements and a special compound to provide a fuel-efficient driving experience. The tire is able to lower the rolling resistance, the force that determines how much energy is needed to maintain a consistent forward motion. As the rolling resistance is lowered, the tire is able to lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. In other words, the tire guarantees a fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly performance.
