Description

The Imperial EcoSport 2 is a high-performance summer tire designed for passenger vehicles, offering a well-balanced combination of handling, fuel efficiency, and long-lasting durability. Released in 2015, it replaced the earlier Imperial EcoSport model, bringing significant improvements in both wet and dry performance. This tire is particularly suited for drivers seeking reliable high-speed stability and excellent wet weather performance while maintaining fuel efficiency and a quiet ride.

Features & Benefits

  • Asymmetric Tread Design: The asymmetric pattern is carefully crafted to balance traction, handling, and noise reduction. This design ensures high-speed stability while delivering precise steering response and improved cornering performance.
  • Stiff Longitudinal Ribs: Continuous, narrow ribs running along the center of the tire enhance directional stability, reduce rolling resistance, and prevent premature wear, all of which contribute to better fuel efficiency and enhanced durability.
  • Reinforced Shoulder Blocks: The broad shoulder blocks increase cornering grip, shortening braking distances and enhancing control during aggressive maneuvers.
  • Noise Reduction Features: The inclusion of rigid bridge elements between the outer tread blocks reduces road noise, offering a quieter and more comfortable ride compared to other high-performance tires.
  • Efficient Drainage System: Wide, deep drainage grooves, combined with numerous sipes, quickly channel water away from the contact patch, helping to prevent hydroplaning and ensuring reliable traction on wet roads.
