Thanks to smart technologies such as freely selectable drives modes, the Ford Focus Active offers innovative handling which is boosted even further by the Ventus Prime 3.<\/p>\n<p>Hankook\u2019s latest ultra-high-performance (UHP) tyre shows a good driving performance and excellent braking performance on wet and dry surfaces. Its wide four channel grooves with rapid drainage provide an optimised wet performance and, its grooves have an optimised design for each position, minimising the trade-off between wet and dry performance. Innovative compounding technologies were applied during development, making use of a high-grip silica tread compound that provides improved wet braking.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring development of the new Ventus Prime 3, special attention was paid to a high traction and braking performance, particularly on wet road surfaces,\u201d explained Dipl.-Ing. Klaus Krause, Head of the European Research and Development Center at Hankook. \u201cBy using an adapted asymmetrical tread, the actual contact surface between the tyre and the road has been increased by ten percent. This means the Ford Focus Active will hit the road especially safely and precisely thanks to Ventus Prime 3.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Premium tyre maker, Hankook is factory-fitting the new Ford Focus Active with the Hankook Ventus Prime 3.
