hankook winter i*cept evo4 w340 – new premium winter tire

The Hankook Winter i*cept Evo4 W340 is a premium all-season tire introduced in 2026, developed for the changing winter conditions of Central Europe. The new generation winter tire offers balanced driving characteristics on snowy, wet and dry roads, combining solid grip, precise handling, lower rolling resistance and improved ride comfort.

better grip on snowy roads

The winter i*cept evo4 uses an advanced tread pattern with 2% wider transverse grooves for improved grip and traction on snow. Special sipes in the center and shoulder areas of the tread help maintain stability during acceleration, braking and cornering.
Optimized sipe angles and tread block layout improve vehicle handling in various winter road conditions.

effective grip on wet roads

The innovative Balance Grip Compound rubber compound contains optimized silica compounds that help maintain the rubber compound's elasticity at low temperatures and ensure balanced grip on wet and snowy roads.
The v-shaped tread pattern quickly directs water away from the tire's contact patch, reducing the risk of aquaplaning and improving driving stability in rainy and slushy conditions.

longer service life and lower fuel consumption

The tire's optimized contact patch and more even pressure distribution help reduce tread wear. According to Hankook's manufacturer, the new model's wear resistance has improved by 15% compared to its predecessor.
Advanced rubber compound and manufacturing technology reduce rolling resistance, contributing to lower fuel consumption and better energy efficiency.

quieter and more comfortable ride

The new chamfer technology uses beveled edges on the tread blocks to help reduce road noise. The optimized center groove layout dissipates road noise and makes the ride quieter and more comfortable.

designed for Central European winter conditions

The Hankook Winter i*cept Evo4 W340 is a Central European type all-season tire , which is particularly suitable for cold, wet, slushy and snowy roads. The tire is intended for use mainly on well-maintained city streets and highways.
Unlike Nordic soft rubber compound all-season tires, this model is not specifically designed for long-term driving on heavily icy roads.
