Hankook Tire has launched the Dynapro AT2 Xtreme, a premium all-terrain tyre engineered for demanding applications across camper vans, off-road vehicles and construction transporters. This versatile all-season performer delivers uncompromising traction, durability and comfort across diverse surfaces and weather conditions. Available in 15 sizes from 15 to 17 inches, it covers the core 4x4 segment while complementing Hankook's existing Dynapro lineup that extends up to 20-inch variants.
Positioned strategically between the road-oriented Dynapro HPX and rugged Dynapro MT2, the AT2 Xtreme strikes the perfect balance for adventure-seekers who need everyday practicality. Its innovative design features aggressive shoulder blocks with deep sidewall protection to withstand off-road hazards while maintaining on-road refinement. The advanced tread pattern incorporates multi-directional sipes and grooves that provide exceptional snow traction, earning the tyre 3PMSF winter certification with the mountain/snowflake symbol.
Engineered for quiet comfort, the AT2 Xtreme utilises graduated block edges and stabilising tie-bars between tread blocks to minimise noise and enhance stability. Hankook's breakthrough ‘Max Mileage’ technology employs a specialised compound with functionalised polymers and temperature-resistant particles for optimal silica distribution, delivering superior grip and extended tread life compared to previous generations. This advanced material science, combined with the tyre's robust construction, ensures reliable performance in extreme conditions while achieving remarkable mileage – making the Dynapro AT2 Xtreme a smart choice for drivers who demand year-round capability without compromise.
Jongho Park, President of Hankook Tire Europe, said, “With the Dynapro AT2 Xtreme, we are strengthening our position in the growing all-terrain segment by delivering a reliable, robust and comfortable solution for vehicles that switch between on-road and off-road use.”
