🇯🇵 Dunlop SportMaxx LUX SC-EV (235/55R19 105W XL JP Y26)

“Master the Silence.” The 2026 Flagship for the Electric Luxury Era.

The SportMaxx LUX SC-EV is Dunlop’s most advanced comfort tyre, designed to replace the VEURO VE304 as the premier choice for silent cruising. It addresses the unique challenges of EVs—specifically the lack of engine noise to mask road hum and the increased weight of heavy battery packs—by integrating high-volume acoustic foam directly into the tyre’s carcass.

✨ Key 2026 Technical Features

• 🧽 SilentCore Technology (Acoustic Foam):

  Inside the tyre is a specialized polyurethane sponge that absorbs “cavity resonance”—the vibration of air inside the tyre. This reduces cabin road noise by nearly 9dB, delivering a near-silent ride that perfectly complements the hushed powertrain of electric and hybrid vehicles.

• ⚡ EV-Specific Reinforced Carcass:

  Marked with the “EV Suitable” badge, this tyre features a high-rigidity internal structure designed to handle the instant torque and 300kg+ of extra battery weight typical of modern electric SUVs without sacrificing steering precision or longevity.

• 🧪 New Generation Hybrid Polymer:

  The 2026 compound utilizes a modified polymer that reduces internal heat generation. Lower heat equals lower rolling resistance, which directly maximizes your battery range and improves the vehicle’s total energy efficiency.

• 🌊 Silent Wave Tread Design:

  A combination of variable-pitch blocks and “seamless grooves” interrupts sound waves before they leave the contact patch. This provides a whisper-quiet journey even on rougher expressway surfaces like the PIE or KPE.

• 🌧️ Class-A Wet Braking:

  Equipped with deep longitudinal grooves that act as high-velocity water pumps. This ensures maximum safety during Singapore’s heavy tropical monsoons, providing elite resistance to hydroplaning even under heavy loads.

📊 Performance Summary

• Cabin Silence: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Industry-leading via SilentCore foam)

• Energy Efficiency: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Optimized for EV/Hybrid range)

• Wet Safety: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Elite Class-A braking performance)
