Michelin continues to raise the bar in all-season tyre performance, that being highlighted in their ever-successful CrossClimate tyre series.
The Michelin CrossClimate 2 SUV, introduced in 2022, marked a significant evolution in the brand's approach to tyres built specifically for larger vehicles.
Now, Michelin is taking the next step forward with the CrossClimate 3 – a model set to build upon the CrossClimate legacy.
This comparison is between the Michelin CrossClimate 3 passenger car tyre and the Michelin CrossClimate 2 SUV, which has been developed specifically for larger SUVs and crossovers.
Michelin CrossClimate 3 vs CrossClimate 2 SUV: What's the difference?
The biggest difference between the Michelin CrossClimate 3 and Michelin CrossClimate 2 SUV is that the CrossClimate 3 builds on the success of its predecessor with improvements in wet braking, tyre longevity and overall all-season performance.
While both tyres are premium all-season options designed to provide dependable grip in dry, wet and snowy conditions, the CrossClimate 3 introduces Michelin's latest tyre technologies, including a Thermal Adaptive Tread Compound and enhanced MaxTouch Construction. Michelin states the CrossClimate 3 delivers up to 4% shorter wet braking distances and 15% more mileage than the previous generation.
In simple terms:
Choose the CrossClimate 3 if you want Michelin's latest all-season technology and improved overall performance.
Choose the CrossClimate 2 SUV if you need an all-season tyre specifically designed for your SUV and it's available in your size.
