Sumitomo HTR A/S P01

Sumitomo HTR A/S P01 — a high-tech all-season model designed for dynamic driving style. The model's design provides improved handling and stability, effective braking on wet surfaces, optimal fuel efficiency, and comfortable driving characteristics.

The tread pattern is designed with a directional V-shaped scheme with a massive central rib of stiffness, ensuring stability at high speeds and reducing air resistance. Fragmented grouping of side blocks with extended transverse edges enhances traction and braking characteristics, especially on wet surfaces, providing precise response to control actions and reliable grip when performing maneuvers.

The design includes an optimized tread profile with an increased contact area due to the dense arrangement of pattern elements. The central segmented rib provides trajectory stability during high-speed operation. The use of a modified rubber compound with improved elastic properties improves wet traction while maintaining resistance to mechanical damage.

Key features of Sumitomo HTR A/S P01:
- all-weather application on a wide range of passenger cars;
- stable handling in any conditions thanks to the directional tread with a wide central rib;
- advanced segmentation that improves the edge effect, responsible for acceleration and braking characteristics;
- a compound with modern additives that maintain the working condition of the tread in a wide temperature range.
