Kumho Tire just debuted two new tires built for a segment it barely competed in until now, and both of them are engineered to handle EV torque and weight, not just gas powered trucks and SUVs. In this video, Torque News takes you inside Kumho's Ride and Drive event in Seattle, where the Road Venture HT and the brand new Crugen GT Pro were put through wet corners and sharp turns at Evergreen Raceway in front of dozens of media and journalists. You will see how the Road Venture HT holds up on half ton and full size trucks like the F-150, Tundra, Silverado, and RAM, including their EV and hybrid variants, and how the all new Crugen GT Pro performs on today's larger, heavier crossovers and SUVs, backed by a 75,000 mile treadwear warranty and 85 available sizes.
This video also includes an exclusive conversation with Carolina Wagner, Kumho Tire U.S.A.'s VP of Marketing, and Chris Han, Senior Marketing Manager, where they explain the bigger strategy behind this launch, Kumho's push to become a true full line tire player in the light truck and SUV market without the confusing lineup of dozens of overlapping products other Tier 1 brands offer. If you drive a truck, SUV, or crossover, gas, hybrid, or electric, and you are wondering whether your current tires can actually handle the weight and torque of today's vehicles, this is the video for you.
