Michelin Pilot Sport 4 and Sport 4 AS tire tests | Car Reviews

Sonoma, CA - In mid-March, French tire manufacturer Michelin held a media conference at the Sonoma racetrack in California. The purpose of the Michelin Sustainability Summit was to unveil the company's latest program to promote the environment and sustainability.

With all these demands, it will be some time before designers arrive at ideal solutions across the board. But for the time being, Michelin - the company responsible for so many innovations, including the radial carcass tire, low rolling resistance tires and the famous Tweel airless tire - is starting to offer tires designed specifically for electric vehicles, but which can also be used on conventional vehicles.

Before the tests, we were treated to some advice from the instructors Photo: E.Descarries The instructors' role was to lead each group through three laps, including the two sports cars followed by the SUVs. Of course, despite the speed, the instructors had to encourage us to keep to a reasonable pace. Following the recommendation of the instructors and technicians, I chose to start the session at the wheel of one of the two Ford Explorers.

The most spectacular cars used for this presentation were Porsche Taycans.

Despite this, the car responded well to this kind of exercise. I even pushed things a little more in the S-curves, riding the vibrators with a bit of arrogance at every turn... and trusting the Michelins. Near the end of the day, Michelin offered us other vehicles, including a new Lucid Air Sapphire sedan with three electric motors and all-wheel drive.
