Hankook launches Dynapro AT2 Xtreme
With its new Dynapro AT2 Xtreme, Hankook says it is presenting a high-performance, all-terrain tread that has been specifically designed for versatile use on camper vans, classic off-road vehicles and construction site transporters.
The all-season tyre is said to combine reliable traction with driving comfort and durability, no matter the surface or season. It comes in a total of 15 sizes ranging from 15- to 17-inches, which also cover the classic 4×4 segment.
The Dynapro product family continues to include the Dynapro AT2 available in sizes up to 20-inches, ideal for many off-road vehicles.
“With the Dynapro AT2 Xtreme, we are strengthening our position in the growing all-terrain segment by delivering a reliable, robust and comfortable solution for vehicles that switch between on-road and off-road use,” said Jongho Park, president of Hankook Tire Europe.
The Dynapro AT2 Xtreme complements the Dynapro product family as an all-rounder positioned between the on-road-focused Dynapro HPX and the off-road specialist Dynapro MT2. According to Hankook, it ticks all the boxes of a modern off-road tyre with high suitability for everyday use through a combination of innovative tread design and advanced material mix.
The tyre’s distinctive shoulder design with deep side wall blocks protects it against cuts and damage during off-road use. At the same time, the sophisticated tread geometry with multi-directional sipes and grooves ensures the best possible traction – even on snow.
The Dynapro AT2 Xtreme is 3PMSF-certified, meaning it carries the mountain/snowflake symbol and is also suitable for winter use under challenging weather conditions.
Specially graduated block edges and additional tie-bars between the tread blocks reduce driving noise and stabilise the tread for a comfortable and safe journey.
The newly developed tread compound benefits from functionalised polymers that ensure an optimum silica distribution as well as integrated particles that are resistant to deformation and temperature extremes for improved grip. The result is an even longer life compared to the tyre’s predecessor.
Thanks to this “Max Mileage” technology, Hankook says the Dynapro AT2 Xtreme achieves extremely high mileage.
