Description

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV (275/40R21 107Y XL)

“Passion and Safety Made to Last.” The Global Leader in SUV Control.

The Pilot Sport 4 SUV (PS4SUV) focuses on “Life-Long Performance,” ensuring that its industry-leading wet and dry grip remains consistent from the first kilometer until the tyre reaches the legal wear limit.

✨ Key 2026 Performance Technologies

• 🏎️ Dual Sport Tread Design:

  Inspired by Formula E, the tread is divided into two functional zones:

  • Outer Side: Rigid blocks designed for dry asphalt, providing massive lateral grip during aggressive cornering.

  • Inner Side: Specialized “functional elastomers” and silica that act as a suction cup on wet roads to eliminate hydroplaning.

• 📐 Dynamic Response Technology:

  A hybrid belt made of Aramid and Nylon ensures the tyre maintains its shape even at extreme speeds. This results in surgical steering precision, allowing you to place your heavy SUV exactly where you want it on the road.

• 🛡️ High-Density Double Casing:

  SUVs require more structural integrity than sedans. Michelin uses a double-ply carcass to provide superior robustness, protecting the tyre against sidewall damage from curbs or potholes—common in urban driving.

• 📏 MaxTouch 2.0 Construction:

  This technology optimizes the contact patch to distribute the forces of acceleration, braking, and cornering evenly. This ensures longer tread life compared to other UHP SUV brands like Pirelli or Continental.

• 🎨 Premium Touch Sidewall:

  The exterior features a patented laser-engraved micro-texture that creates a deep velvet-black finish. This adds a refined, high-performance aesthetic that complements luxury 21-inch alloy wheels.
