Michelin CrossClimate 2 is the peerless year-round performance tire. It is also Michelin's most advanced and most versatile passenger tire in more than two decades, with innovations in tread compound and design that deliver unmatched year-round performance in unexpected weather conditions, an improved combination never seen before in a passenger or crossover tire for North America. The CrossClimate 2 improves on the industry-leading record of its predecessor, the Michelin CrossClimate+: CC+ earned top scores against all other “performance all-season” tires from one independent testing agency (Consumer Reports, Nov. 2019, test results for “Performance All-season tires”), and it was also ranked “most recommended” by another independent firm in consumer ratings for the “Grand Touring All-Season” category. It grips to the last stop for drivers who want to get out there safely year-round and confidently in all conditions, delivering unmatched gripping performance in the rain, even when worn. And let's face it, everyone is driving on worn tires. When it rains, the worn CrossClimate 2 beats Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady, a leading competitor, by more than 50 feet in wet-stopping tests from 50 mph; among four leading competitors, it stopped even as the others were still going 24 mph or more. When it's dry, stopping first still matters: the CrossClimate 2 stops up to 16 feet shorter (more than one full car length!) on dry pavement than four leading competitors, so you can keep your cool even when traffic heats up. When it snows, its “3-peak mountain snowflake rating” extends your safe-driving confidence, and even when worn it delivers up to 31% better traction in the snow than four leading all-season competitors. Real-road testing shows the incomparable CrossClimate 2 rolls safely and wears longer than leading competitors, and it's not even close. This first-of-its-kind tire delivers unsurpassed performance across all seasons without compromising treadwear, consistently delivering up to one year of additional wear compared with four leading competitors: that's more than 15,000 miles of year-round safe driving and safe stopping (based on U.S. DoT, 13,500 average annual miles per driver). It lasts 11–23% longer than the other leading all-season tires from the largest competitors (Continental CrossContact LX25 & PureContact LS; Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady; and Bridgestone Turanza QuietTrack). Dealers' concerns about treadwear (mileage or longevity), noise and servicing are solved by Michelin's innovative combination of rubber compound and directional tread design. Directional V-formation tread design optimizes rain and snow traction while improving dry handling and long wear without compromise. Other “all-season” tires can deliver one of these performances, but not all. Wear: V-formation and 3D-SipeLock distribute forces evenly for long wear while also delivering maximum grip and sporty handling in dry conditions. Noise: you can't hear a difference! Michelin applied PIANO Noise Reduction Tuning to design a tread with blocks and angles that cancel out “harmonic” road noise and create ideal amplitude for the contact patch, as quiet or better than Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady and Bridgestone Quiet Track, based on internal test results.
