- First-class safety on ice and snow
- Superb handling on wet and dry roads
- Saves on fuel costs
The new Hakkapeliitta R2 Nordic winter tyre is the number one choice for drivers who value unique driving comfort and greener motoring, as it offers substantial fuel savings and lower carbon dioxide emissions.
The extremely low rolling resistance is over 5% lower than that of the predecessor Hakkapeliitta R, which already crushed the competition with its superior fuel efficiency.
Furthermore, the safety characteristics of the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 on ice, snow, and wet roads were fine-tuned using a new-generation rubber compound, a tailored tread model, and the Cryo Crystal concept.
The improved winter grip is especially evident on slippery ice, where the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 takes over 10 metres less to stop from a main road speed of 80 km/h than the Hakkapeliitta R, which is already known for its excellent grip on ice.

Steering feel is very vague and grip worse than my previous winter tyres from Vredestein. Very disappointing considering Nokian's reputation for great winter tyres.

Easily the best winter tires I've ever purchased. Liked them so much I'm getting Nokian zLines for my summer tires now.

drives like a studded tyre,
Need to go carefully on dry roads, outstanding grip on snow, ice and slush, ruts don't pull car off line.
