Michelin Primacy 5 Energy

When you choose MICHELIN Primacy 5 Energy summer tyres, you can be sure you’re opting for quality and reliability. Both daily commutes and long journeys will be a real pleasure, and thanks to its excellent fuel efficiency, they’ll also be more economical. This advanced premium model combines a high level of driving comfort with excellent vehicle control, which directly translates into confident handling and safety. The Primacy 5 Energy is designed for fitting on petrol and diesel vehicles, as well as electric and hybrid cars. 

Choose safety

Safety is one of the key priorities for Michelin’s engineers. The Primacy 5 Energy stands out for its impressive grip in all the conditions you might encounter on the road during the summer season. The tyre performs confidently and predictably on both dry and wet surfaces. The asymmetrical tread pattern enhances responsiveness, giving the driver even greater control. Four circumferential grooves – three wide ones complemented by one narrower one – effectively drain excess water from beneath the tyres, improving grip on wet roads. The tyre has been awarded an ‘A’ rating on the European tyre label for wet braking performance, confirming its effectiveness. 

Longer distances

The MICHELIN Primacy 5 Energy not only guarantees premium handling, but also longer distances. The use of MICHELIN MaxTouch technology optimises the tyre’s contact surface with the road. The result is an even distribution of force during acceleration, braking and cornering. This results in more even tread wear and, consequently, a longer tyre life. At the same time, the tyre ensures a high level of safety throughout its entire service life. Longer distances also mean tyres need to be replaced less often, which translates into lower running costs. 

Tire that supports efficient driving

The Energy version has been designed to reduce rolling resistance. High energy efficiency (class ‘A’ on the European label) helps to reduce fuel consumption in combustion-engine cars and increase the range of electric vehicles.

The new-generation rubber compound used (Energy Passive 2.0) effectively dissipates the heat generated whilst driving, which is particularly important for owners of electric and hybrid cars. This means you can cover longer distances whilst maintaining optimal driving performance.

Travel in peaceful comfort

The modern tread design has been developed to reduce rolling noise. The strategic arrangement of the tread blocks and the optimised groove pattern help to reduce the noise generated whilst driving. This solution enhances the comfort of travel – something that is particularly noticeable in quiet electric vehicles.
