Hankook Ventus S1 evo 3 K127 are summer UHP tyres designed for modern passenger cars and SUVs. It combines the heritage of two generations with the latest technological solutions - the final product is a tyre with unprecedented parameters.
The model is another milestone in the development of the Korean manufacturer. Exquisite sports parameters are intertwined with high durability and care for the natural environment. It is a great choice for drivers who want to drive quickly, economically and ecologically.
New version, new possibilities.
Constructors working on the project have prioritized the combination of safety and performance on each surface. The top layer is made of an aramid composite, which reduces unwanted increase in tyre circumference at high loads (up to 60% more efficiently than with classic nylon solutions). The solution increases the stability of driving at high speeds and ensures a longer lifespan. It is a clear nod towards the owner of the machine owners.
So called hyper-skews were placed on the central ribs of the tread, to improve the precision of cornering through putting the appropriate pressure on the key zones. Additional external bridges increase the rigidity of the structure and help maintain stable driving.
Economics and ecology in a sport edition
Hankook Ventus S1 evo 3 K127 is a worthy successor to its popular predecessors, which offers environmental properties on top of great performance and the highest quality.
The rubber compound for the new version was created on the basis of natural resins and addition of silica. Their application has significantly reduced the rolling resistance (by about 2.5% compared to the results of the predecessor), which translates into lower combustion and carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere.
Ecological and economic values, however, are not the only advantages of the original mixture. Its characteristics increase tyre performance in a wide temperature range, expanding its adaptation threshold. The modern technology of mixing polymers and filler material has additionally provided a shorter braking distance on wet surfaces.
Hankook is a middle class producer, strongly aspiring to the premium segment for the past several years. The brand's products are a combination of the latest technological solutions and attractive prices. Hankook uses very rich experience and extensive expert staff to create unique models for the specific needs of modern drivers. They are characterized by good resistance to conditions, long runs and sportiness - both in terms of design and parameters. Hankook is one of the most popular tyre suppliers in the world, ranked among the top producers.
