Notable Features
Semperit Speed-Grip 3 is a directional studless tire designed by the Austrian brand to ensure maximum driving safety for the owners of midsize passenger cars and city SUVs on slippery winter surfaces.
According to the manufacturer, this model, launched into mass production back in 2017, is characterized by excellent snow traction, efficient ice braking, and crisp steering response on dry pavement.
The Semperit Speed-Grip 3 came to replace the Semperit Speed-Grip 2 tire model, manufactured since 2011, which, in spite of its affordable price, demonstrated very decent results in independent winter tire tests.
The six yearsâ difference between the two generations has not been in vain â the performance of the â3â model has been significantly improved. Among other things, the engineers were able to improve the ice braking performance, handling response, traction on loose and packed snow, as well as take the tireâs hydroplaning resistance on a whole new level. To further optimize the Speed Grip 3 winter performance, the engineers increased the number of the tread friction blocks that form numerous biting edges. Due to this feature, the water film that forms on the ice surface during the braking is dispersed faster, which leads to shorter stopping distances.
In addition, the transition area between the tire shoulders and sidewalls features small sipes that visually look like a mountain range. These provide still more biting edges and strengthen the Semperit Speed-Grip 3 snow grip. The efficiency of snow braking performance of this directional tire model is ensured by the numerous tread blocks, strewn with 3D winter sipes. The handling response and extra lateral stability during cornering and maneuvering is further improved by the special little âsnow clawsâ hiding at the bottom of the traversal grooves. The deep circumferential grooves ensure quick evacuation of water and melting snow from the contact area, thus preventing the occurrence of hydroplaning and slushplaning effects.
For the driversâ convenience, the Semperit Speed-Grip 3 surface features two tread wear indicators that provide information about the remaining tread depth. The tire model designed for cars with a high clearance is named Semperit Speed-Grip 3 SUV. At the same time, its tread design is totally the same as that of its passenger-car counterpart. All the differences lie in the reinforced construction with an increased load capacity.
