Product description & features
The Hankook Kinergy Eco 2 is a car tyre, designed to fitment on small, compact and mid-range cars.
Hankook have designed the Kinergy Eco 2 tyre with an emphasis on optimised rolling resistance - for improved fuel efficiency.
The tyre's tread features a high grip silica compound, helping to improve traction in both wet and dry conditions.
Wide lateral grooves within the tyre's tread pattern work to quickly and efficiently remove water from the Kinergy Eco 2's path - reducing the risk of aquaplaning.
What are summer tyres?
Summer tyres are specifically designed for warm weather conditions, particularly during the summer season. This type of tyre performs best when in seasons with warmer temperatures - above 7°C.
How does a summer tyre perform better in summer?
The technologies and tread patterns used in a summer tyre mean the tyres have high-quality features that are of benefit to driving in warm conditions. They typically use a softer rubber compound – designed for good grip and traction when driving on dry and wet roads.
Can you use summer tyres in winter?
Whilst summer tyres still offer adequate performances in wet and cooler conditions, it is recommended that you change. The tread design and technologies that are featured in summer tyres can harden in colder temperatures, resulting in reduced flexibility and decreased traction on snow and ice.
