Information on the tyre: Hankook Kinergy 4S H740 is a medium-class all-season tyre that will match the expectations of drivers looking for safe and comfortable models which flexibly adapts to road conditions. Their impressive parameters make it possible to get high performance no matter the season.
The Kinergy 4S H740 is refined in every detail. With the use of advanced technology, the manufacturer obtained a 10% shorter braking distance on snowy surfaces. At the same time, the tyre provides 6% better and safer driving on dry and wet roads. This comes, among other things, from its appropriate tread structure which includes two sipe types which are different in the internal and external sections. Another quality is their robust body made of polyester. Its use translates into higher durability of lateral walls and higher grip. With this, the model stands out for its extended lifespan and ensures stability on the road, also during a dynamic drive.
Hankook Kinergy 4S H740 is based on a rubber compound including silica. The use of such a compound translates not only into a reduced level of noise and higher comfort during braking. It also makes for the lower weight of the tyre, and consequently lower rolling resistance. Therefore, Kinergy 4S H740 is fuel-efficient.
