The Latitude Alpin is Michelin's Light Truck/SUV Performance Winter tire developed for the drivers of all-wheel drive crossover and sport utility vehicles. The Latitude Alpin is designed to combine a smooth, quiet ride and long wear with traction on cold, wet, snow-covered and icy roads.
The Latitude Alpin features a Helio Compound (sunflower oil-enriched compound) molded into a directional tread design combining a continuous center rib with independent intermediate and shoulder blocks to blend stability on dry roads with hydroplaning resistance on wet roads and traction in slush, snow and on ice. Bi-directional self-locking sipes allow greater sipe density that bites into snow and ice for sure-footed braking and traction in cold weather conditions. Michelin Stabiligrip technology featuring variable geometry sipes (wavy at the tire's surface and straight at their base) enhances handling at higher speeds. Michelin Comfort Control Technology combines computer-optimized design and precision manufacturing methods to reduce vibration and road noise. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced with spirally wound polyamide cord to support the tread, while a polyester cord casing enhances ride comfort.
Latitude Alpin winter tires meet the industry's severe snow service requirements and are branded with the mountain/snowflake symbol.
Install Latitude Alpin tires in sets of four only.
Vehicles should always be equipped with equivalent tires at all wheel positions. These winter tires, due to their exceptional snow and ice traction provided by their unique tread compounds, must be used in sets of four to help ensure proper vehicle control.
*Specific sizes featuring Green X technology are identified as such on the Sizes tab, as well as on the tire's SPEC tab.
El Latitude Alpin de Michelin es un neumático de la categoría: Invierno Para Camiones Ligeros y fue diseñado para conductores de utiliautos (crossover) con tracción en todas las ruedas y vehículos utilitarios deportivos. El diseño del Latitude Alpin combina un manejo parejo, tranquilo y desgaste lento, con tracción en climas fríos, superficies mojadas, cubiertas con hielo y nieve.
El Latitude Alpin posee un compuesto que contiene aceite de girasol enriquecido, conocido como Helio Compund, y es moldeado en una banda de rodamiento con diseño direccional. Este diseño combina un segmento central continuo, con bloques independientes intermedios y en los hombros, para mezclar estabilidad sobre superficies secas con resistencia al deslizamiento en agua (hydroplaning) sobre superficies mojadas, además de tracción sobre aguanieve, hielo y nieve. Ranuras en dos direcciones que se cierran por si solas, permiten gran cantidad de “mordidas” en hielo y nieve, asegurando un mejor frenado y tracción sobre condiciones climatológicas frías. La tecnología Stabiligrip de Michelin cuenta con ranuras con geometrías variables (onduladas sobre la superficie del neumático y rectas en las bases de los hombros) que mejoran la maniobrabilidad a velocidades elevadas. La tecnología "Comfort Control" de Michelin reduce la vibración y los niveles de ruidos, gracias a un diseño optimizado por computadora y un método de fabricación preciso.
La estructura interna cuenta con correas gemelas de acero con un cordón de poliamida envuelto en espiral para soportar la parte exterior de la banda de rodamiento; mientras que un armazón con cordón de poliéster, mejora el confort del manejo.
Los neumáticos de invierno Latitude Alpin cumplen con los requisitos de la industria relacionados a condiciones severa de nieve y posee el símbolo “montaña/copo de nieve” (mountain/snowflake).
Instale el Latitude Alpin solamente en grupos de cuatro.
Los vehículos deben estar equipados con neumáticos equivalentes en las cuatro posiciones. Debido al compuesto único de caucho y la tracción excepcional que produce en hielo y nieve, estos neumáticos de invierno deben ser usados en grupos de cuatro, para mantener el control correcto del vehículo.
