The Michelin Latitude Sport is a high performance SUV tyre engineered for drivers of premium sport utility vehicles and crossovers who demand dynamic handling capability without compromising the refinement expected from a luxury SUV. Michelin developed the Latitude Sport with an advanced tread compound and an optimised contact patch geometry that maximises the tyre's footprint under cornering loads, delivering strong lateral grip and responsive steering on dry roads. Deep circumferential grooves and a high-density sipe network across the tread ensure effective water evacuation and short wet braking distances, supporting confident performance in adverse weather. The tyre's construction balances SUV load requirements with a ride quality tuned for refinement, reducing road noise and vibration on highway surfaces. The Latitude Sport is a benchmark high performance SUV tyre for drivers who expect both driving pleasure and everyday composure.
Best for:
Not intended for: Off-road or light terrain use, or standard passenger car fitments.
Advanced high-performance tread compound: Engineered to maximise grip levels on dry road surfaces under the higher loads generated by SUV cornering. Delivers more confident, responsive handling and shorter braking distances than standard SUV tyres.
Optimised contact patch geometry: Maximises the tyre's effective footprint under lateral cornering forces, improving load distribution across the tread. Provides more consistent grip and more precise steering feel throughout a corner.
Deep circumferential grooves with high-density sipe network: Work together to evacuate water rapidly and maintain tread edge contact on wet surfaces. Supports shorter wet braking distances and reduced aquaplaning risk for heavy SUV platforms.
SUV load-rated construction: Built to manage the greater weight and centre-of-gravity demands of premium sport utility vehicles. Ensures stable, predictable handling behaviour whether the vehicle is lightly or heavily loaded.
Road noise-optimised tread architecture: Tread block sequencing and pitch variation reduce tonal noise at highway speeds. Contributes to the refined, quiet cabin environment expected of premium SUV ownership.
