The Latitude X-Ice Xi2 is Michelin's Studless Ice + Snow winter tire developed for the drivers of vans, crossover and sport utility vehicles, as well as light-duty pickups that want a boost in winter driving confidence. Latitude X-Ice Xi2 winter tires are designed to combine X-tra ice and snow traction with enhanced handling on wet and dry roads.

Michelin's FleX-Ice silica-based winter tread rubber compound (offers firmness at higher temperatures for wet and dry road stability while it remains flexible at lower temperatures to enhance packed snow and ice traction) is molded into a directional tread design that helps evacuate water and slush to improve hydroplaning resistance. Independent shoulder and intermediate tread blocks feature a combination of multiple micro-pumps and Cross Z-Sipes to deliver traction on ice- and snow-covered roads.

Additionally, the Cross Z-Sipes increase tread and shoulder block stability to provide the lateral and longitudinal stiffness that enhances driving precision on dry and wet roads. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wound polyamide cord to optimize the tire profile while enhancing high-speed capability. Latitude X-Ice Xi2 winter tires meet the industry's severe snow service requirements and are branded with the mountain/snowflake symbol.

EU Tire Label and Efficiency Classes?

The European Union has introduced the EU Tire Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tires, light commercial vehicle tires and heavy commercial vehicle tires produced after 01.07.2012.

Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tire makes on the road.

The following are not affected by the EU Tire Label: retreaded tires, professional off-road tires, racing tires, tires with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tires, T-type emergency tires, special tires for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tires with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tires for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.

With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.

Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tire Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tire labelling, tires have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.

Tire manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tire labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
