Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 245/45R18 100T XL Winter Tire

The Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 is a non-studded winter tire for passenger cars designed to deliver uncompromising grip and smart driving features for every day of winter. The Nokian Tyres Hakkapeliitta R5 has earned recommendation from Consumer Reports. Offering the purest form of safety, the Hakkapeliitta R5 is an innovative combination of pure winter grip, silence and eco-friendliness.

Key Technologies:

• Arctic Grip Crystals: Microscopic, third-generation grip crystals are mixed in the tread rubber. These crystals work like built-in studs, creating sharp, tough grip edges inside the rubber. As the tire wears down, the crystals emerge and activate the grip reserve.
• Double Block Grip Design: Compared to its predecessor, the Nokian Tyres Hakkapeliitta R5 has 40% more tread blocks on the shoulder and intermediate area. This offers superior grip and handling, which can be seen especially on the shoulder areas of the tire.
• Winter Safety Indicator: The patented Winter Safety Indicator (WSI) is embedded in the tread to further improve safety. It displays the remaining tread in millimeters together with a snowflake symbol. The snowflake remains visible until four millimeters of tread remain.

Eco-Friendly Construction:

The eco-friendly driving features come from ingredients like natural rubber, recycled steel, plant derived oils and pine resin. More than one third of the compound consists of renewable and recycled materials. Due to the lightly rolling tread design and the Green Trace compound, the rolling resistance of the Hakkapeliitta R5 has been improved even further, making it ideal for extending the range of electric vehicles.
