Hit the road safely with Kumho WinterCraft WP52+ and enjoy a comfortable journey! The tyre has been designed to cope with all winter conditions, allowing you to reach your destination safely and calmly. This is a good choice for drivers who value reliable solutions combined with elegant design. The WinterCraft WP52+ model is designed for installation in electric and hybrid vehicles.
Designed for winter conditions
When designing the WinterCraft WP52+ model, the manufacturer opted for a directional tread pattern, which ensures excellent control and predictable handling in winter conditions. A specially developed 3D sipe system, known as K-Sipe Control, effectively transfers braking and driving forces to the road surface. This allows the tyre to remain stable even during sudden manoeuvres or attempts to stop abruptly, which is crucial in changing winter conditions.
Effective protection against aquaplaning
Wide, sharply pointed tread grooves effectively drain water and slush from under the wheels. This reduces the risk of aquaplaning and improves handling stability on wet surfaces. The K-Xtreme HLC technology used improves the contact surface with the ground. This translates into firm tyre behaviour on both wet roads and snow.
Reinforced construction
The durability of the WP52+ model is enhanced by its construction based on high-strength steel bands. They prevent deformation, increase stability at higher speeds and improve resistance to high loads. An extra stiffened base layer reduces deformation and gives the driver a greater sense of control, even in difficult road conditions.
Flexibility in sub-zero temperatures
The rubber compound used in the WinterCraft WP52+ model has been enriched with sunflower oil, which lowers the glass transition temperature during production – i.e. the moment when the rubber changes from a liquid to a solid state. In practice, this means that the tyre retains its elasticity even at very low temperatures. This allows the tread to better adapt to the surface, offering higher traction and better control over the vehicle on snow-covered roads.
Good durability
Thanks to optimised contact pressure, the WinterCraft WP52+ tyre wears more slowly and evenly. The risk of premature tread and shoulder block wear is reduced, which directly extends the service life. As a result, the model offers stable driving characteristics over a longer period of time and allows you to enjoy greater driving comfort.
