The Quatrac Lite is the tyre for low mileage motorists who value safety, energy efficiency and convenience all year round! It is the first 'green' 4-season tyre which, thanks to advanced technologies such as a “Full Polymer Compound”, has a low rolling resistance. A striking feature of this tyre is the numerous notches, or “Flexing Points”.

These give the tyre adequate grip on snow. But the Quatrac Lite also stands out for its wet grip and excellent steering characteristics. Ideal for compact (electric) city cars, which need to be fast and instantly manoeuvrable in the busy traffic. An additional advantage is the convenience of not having to change and store tyres. Together with the low rolling resistance, this offers real benefits for the user.

 EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes

EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes

The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.

Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.

The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.

With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.

Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.

Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.

Perfect!

Good tyres in a good price.
04.01.2014 from Robert F
The handling is a bit softer than with previous Michelin Energy, but wet grip seems good once you've got used to the additional body roll. There has not been any snow yet, so I cannot comment. They are a bit noisier inside than the preivous tyres, but I cannot assess how they perform on drive by. Those areas where I have not had any experience or measured (snow, exterior noise) I have rated the tyre as **. For this reason, the score bar should also have an additional column for not rated.
