Michelin Latitude Sport 3
This model is a Summer tire developed to meet the needs of millions of SUV owners who are looking for fuel economy, less CO2 emissions, and the best summer driving experience. It has a Michelin Green X technology designed to boost vehicle efficiency, environmental impact reducing fuel usage and carbon dioxide emissions.
Michelin Latitude Sport 3 received a new tread compound molded into an asymmetric pattern with the purpose to boost grip on dry and wet roads, acceleration, and braking performance compared to its predecessor. To improve rolling resistance and vehicle fuel economy the Michelin engineers use variable thickness sipes to reduce tread block deformation providing a safer and more comfortable ride experience.
This model uses a special tread design backed by Michelin Acoustic Technology to provide a significant reduction of vibrations caused by the road by approximately 20%, providing a quiet, comfortable, and enjoyable driving experience. For safety reasons, this tire has wide longitudinal grooves designed to efficiently and quickly water evacuation from under the tire footprint, increasing hydroplaning resistance.
The tire presents an advanced internal structure that includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped polyamide on top of a polyester cord casing to ensure strength, efficiency, comfort, strength, and high-speed durability as well. The Michelin Latitude Sport 3 is available from 17 to 21-inch sizes, backed by 6 years of standard limited warranty, or 20,000 miles tread life. It is used as Original Equipment for high-performance SUVs and crossovers like the Porsche Macan S and Macan Turbo.
