OVERVIEW

The Yokohama Tornante is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Yokohama offers a 75,000 mile treadwear warranty with H and V speed rated sizes and an 85,000 mile treadwear warranty with T speed rated sizes of this model.

All season traction is guaranteed with this model as it utilizes the all season compound and the asymmetric tread design. The tire upgrades the dry, wet and winter weather grip on the road surface. The strengthened compound maintains the rubber flexibility in various temperatures. The asymmetric wider block placement upgrades the grip on the road surface with extra biting edges. The four deep circumferential grooves and the sweeping cross grooves work together to channel water and slush from the footprint, significantly boosting the wet weather traction and preventing hydroplaning.

The tire promotes a lengthened usability. The tread design and the durable all weather compound increase the tread life. The asymmetric tread design utilizes the 3D adaptive siping placement are full length, which means that they do not disappear with the tread wear. In this manner, the tire maintains the ideal surface grip throughout the tire's lifetime. The advanced rubber flexibility of the stronger compound keeps the tire cool during its performance. It prevents heat build-up along the tread area which minimizes the tread wear rate. This combination allows the tire to improve the model's overall service life.

The model's strengthened all weather traction offers a fuel conscious drive. The advanced compound and the asymmetric tread design ease the driving pressure off the tire, which minimizes the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the driving pressure affecting the model, which determines the vehicle's needed fuel intake levels. As a result, the tire significantly reduces the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions during its performance. This provides the tire's fuel efficient and environmentally friendly driving experience.

The stabilized tread block placement upgrades the surface contact during the tire's performance. The asymmetric tread pattern's cross supporting tread blocks and the constant contact ribs maintain the surface grip on the road surface during the drive. This upgrades the steering responsiveness and the driving stability, ensuring the driver's better control over the vehicle. The cross supporting tread blocks also boost the cornering ability. These blocks enhance the number of biting edges gripping the road surface, upgrading the maneuvering power.

The Tornante lowers the road noise levels heard in the vehicle's cabin. The asymmetric pattern's special multi-pitch block placement reduces the road and tread pattern noise during the drive. The multi-pitch block pattern generates a special sound frequency which negates the sound waves created while the tires are in motion. This prevents road and tread pattern noise from reaching the passengers in the vehicle's cabin, providing a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
