Davanti launches first all-season passenger car tyre

Davanti Tyres has launched its first all-season passenger car tyre, the Alltoura 4-Seasons.

The tyre maker says that after “rigorous development” in both summer and winter conditions at recognised industry leading proving grounds, the Alltoura 4-Seasons delivers a “leading performance and balances key technical attributes” of winter and summer tyres to deliver an all-round strong cross-climate tyre, without the traditional trade off in performances.

The Alltoura 4-Seasons features a directional tread pattern to ensure reliable winter traction. A specially-formulated compound delivers an engaging drive with safe and stable performance across a range of temperatures experienced with the changing seasons, according to Davanti.

Its intelligent sipe design allows for efficient clearing of water and extra grip on snow and ice while maintaining tread block stability on dry roads ensuring driver focused, enjoyable driving characteristics, Davanti adds.

According to the British brand, engineering innovations allow the Alltoura 4-Seasons tyres to tackle snow and icy surfaces, as well as giving superior grip on wet and dry surfaces.

The advanced silica compound delivers traction and longevity for year-round lasting performance, providing an economical and practical tyre and removing the need to change between summer and winter tyres.

Peter Cross, Davanti Tyres general manager said: “It’s great to bring a new, innovative all-season passenger car tyre to the market which offers year-round lasting performance.

“The team have worked incredibly hard to take it from concept to market and we’re excited to present a tyre which can react and adapt to the varying climate conditions, offering limitless possibilities.

“It’s also important we’ve created a product which gives consumers an economical option whilst providing confidence, thanks to its credentials and our rigorous testing process.”

Davanti’s Alltoura 4-Seasons tyres have been stringently tested in summer conditions at the New Davanti European Development Centre, Applus+ IDIADA Proving Ground in Spain, as well as comprehensive winter testing at UTAC Ivalo (part of the Millbrook Group) in Finland.

The tyre is also Three Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) certified, which make it legally approved to be driven in countries with winter tyre legislation.

This is the first all-season passenger car tyre developed by Davanti and adds to its ever-growing portfolio including the Vantoura 4-Seasons developed for commercial vans. The range covers sizes 14-18 inches.
