FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Winter weather traction
- Improved controllability
- Enhanced driving durability
- Fuel-efficient performance
OVERVIEW
The Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV is a touring, winter tire made for SUVs.
The ideal tread pattern and the winter compound work together to boost winter-weather traction. In this manner, the directional tread pattern can easily maintain road contact in the winter season. At the same time, the compound keeps the rubber pliable in freezing and harsh winter temperatures. As a result, this tire can easily perform on ice- and snow-covered roads. The tire also boosts hydroplaning resistance. Large grooves eliminate water and slush from the footprint and promote a safe driving experience.
The directional tread pattern and its close road contact boost steering responsiveness and driving stability. The steering response time is faster and more precise to the driver’s commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Large elements and the special siping detail upgrade the cornering and braking abilities during the drive. These elements enable the driver to have excellent control over the vehicle.
The model also offers a fuel-efficient performance. The optimal tread pattern and the special rubber compound reduce the rolling resistance. It is the pressure that determines how much energy the vehicle needs to keep the tires in motion. This results in lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, which leads to a fuel-conscious and environmentally friendly driving experience.
The Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV also boosts driving durability and damage resistance. The reinforced internal structure and the durable rubber compound maintain the ideal tire shape under pressure. As the tire does not deform, it can safely perform all the time. On the other hand, the strong rubber compound protects the tire from external damage, such as punctures, cuts, and tearing across the tread area. This improves driving safety levels in winter-weather conditions.
