Latitude Sport 3

The Latitude Sport 3 (third-generation Latitude on-road SUV tire) is Michelin's Street/Sport Truck Summer tyre developed as Original Equipment for high performance SUVs and crossovers such as the Porsche Macan S and Macan Turbo. 

In addition to enhancing vehicle fuel economy by meeting Michelin's Green X* low rolling resistance objectives, Latitude Sport 3 tyres are designed to deliver world-class dry and wet road traction, handling and cornering. However, like all summer tires, they are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.

Latitude Sport 3 tyres feature a new tread compound molded into an asymmetric design that offers an increased void ratio to improve wet grip compared to its predecessor. Variable thickness sipes reduce tread block deformation, which improves rolling resistance to enhance vehicle fuel economy.

The tyre's internal structure includes two high-tensile, steel cord belts that are further reinforced by size-optimized, precisely placed individual aramid/nylon hybrid filaments that resist tire distortion to provide high-speed durability and enhanced ride quality.
