The letter "р" in the name of the winter tire Nokian Hakkapeliitta 10p SUV means that this model is specifically designed for the Russian market. The key difference from the "original" is the studding system, which had to be changed due to updated regulatory standards.
This model is designed for SUVs and vehicles in the SUV category, which are characterized by significant weight and a high center of gravity, and is based on the same "passenger" tire. The main difference from it is the reinforced construction of the carcass and sidewalls, which contain cord made of synthetic and steel threads of a larger cross-section. Similarly, the rubber compound was made more rigid and resistant to rupture and stretching.
The tread pattern is fully identical to the "passenger" model and significantly differs from the design of the tire tread of the previous generation. The most changes affected the central part, where the arrow-shaped rib became narrower, and the "petals" departing from it significantly increased in size. This solution made it possible to significantly improve the coupling properties and their stability, especially when maneuvering and driving at high speed. These qualities are almost fully preserved on a slippery surface, thanks to the increased number of studs, which is the key difference between this tire and the "original" for other countries.
