The Hankook Dynapro HPX is specifically designed for SUVs and all-wheel-drive vehicles in Europe and North America.
The Hankook Dynapro HPX Performs Exceptionally Well on Wet Surfaces
Hankook unveiled on 13 August 2024 the new Dynapro HPX, a summer tyre specifically designed for SUVs and all-wheel-drive vehicles. The new tyre sets standards in its segment concerning safety, comfort, and durability.
The Dynapro HPX impresses with uniform tread wear and high mileage, which are made possible by a newly developed material mix and an enlarged contact surface that evenly distributes the ground pressure. In addition, the Dynapro HPX offers improved adhesion during braking and when cornering in wet conditions. New 3D GripControl sipes placed on the main tread keep their shape even under load helping to provide outstanding grip.
The Dynapro HPX also shows its strengths on wet surfaces. Compared with its predecessor, the Dynapro HP2, it achieves not only a 15 per cent reduction in braking distance on wet surfaces but also a seven per cent improvement in wet handling performance.
Reduced Noise Level
The Dynapro HPX sets standards with its new tread design for comfort. The knurling technology inside the grooves effectively reduces the rolling noise by narrowing the air path while maintaining the grooves’ intended performance features. In addition, an optimisation of the outer tread blocks, whose number and size vary, ensures quieter rolling behaviour ensuring a quieter ride.
“With the Dynapro HPX, we are presenting the newest member of our tyre family, which is specifically designed for the different requirements of SUVs and all-wheel-drive vehicles,” says Sanghoon Lee, President and COO of Hankook Tire Europe. “We are proud to be able to offer our customers a tyre with very high mileage, without any compromise on comfort and safety.”
The Dynapro HPX is specially tailored to the needs of the European and North American market. It offers reliable performance even in adverse weather conditions. It comes in all standard tyre sizes from 16 to 19 inches and has been available in retailers since June.
