Optimal performance, excellent grip and a stable driving experience in any situation are the main attributes of the Michelin PRIMACY 3. The tyre is noted for its innovative construction, specially designed to handle difficult weather and road conditions. Its asymmetric tread pattern means that it disperses water very quickly, preventing the car from skidding. Wide grooves help disperse water to the sides, which means that the liquid layers are removed from under the tyre, ensuring that it maintains its grip.
The model has been designed from an innovative compound noted for its lightness and durability. The light compound reduces rolling resistance, resulting in lower fuel consumption - in the space of a year this can mean big savings for the driver. Reduced fuel consumption also results in lower CO2 emissions, which helps limit the tyre's negative impact on the environment.
The model is particularly well suited to drivers looking for optimal performance in any weather and in any conditions. The Michelin PRIMACY 3 ensures a quiet and comfortable driving experience. Thanks to the model's construction, tyre noise is instantly muffled. Optimal performance, shorter braking distances and excellent steerability are all features that mean that the Michelin PRIMACY 3 has gained the recognition of even the most demanding drivers.
