Product description & features

The Michelin e.Primacy 2 is a tyre that is tailor-made for use in the summer. This tyre employs specific strategies to assist in preserving the useable range of battery in Electric Vehicles (EVs) and in the case of Internal Combustion Vehicles (ICVs) or Hybrids, to be more efficient in the use of fuel whilst driving in warmer weather. With the summer season, the concern of rolling resistance is more critical in terms of tyre design. The Michelin e.Primacy 2 utilises a rubber technology that is called Energy Passive Compound.

Tyres experience a great deal of forces when a vehicle is in motion; forces such as acceleration, deceleration and cornering. Michelin also employs a technology referred to as MaxTouch Construction, which helps to make the tyre wear more uniform over its lifespan.

Some variants of this tyre are manufactured with a design to assist in reducing the noise level entering the vehicle's cabin, and Michelin also offers e.Primacy 2 XL to assist in carrying heavier loads. XL means that the tyre is an extra load tyre and is designated as such on the sidewall. We have e.Primacy 2 tyres, including the XL and noise-reducing variants, in stock at Tyres.co. We stock the Michelin Eprimacy 2 at Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Summer tyre design
  • Energy Passive Compound
  • More even tyre wear
  • Noise-reducing variants available

There are no issues with grip during my daily drives. The steering feedback feels just right and I think the car's handling is much improved. The tread pattern also looks good for longevity.

No complaints up to this point, the handling is accurate and responsive. On wet roads, they give me confidence for sure. I have not tested them in winter conditions yet, but I am feeling good about how they have performed so far.
