MICHELIN X-ICE SNOW+ – master the unpredictability of harsh winters

Be prepared for whatever winter throws at you – with the MICHELIN X-ICE SNOW+, a studless winter tyre designed for extreme winter conditions.

Stay in control even in extreme winter conditions:

Stay in control even in extreme winter conditions with the MICHELIN X-ICE SNOW+ studless winter tyres. The advanced MICHELIN Flex-Ice 3.0 tread compound supports fine-tuned braking on ice, snow, slush, and on wet and dry roads (1).

Reliable performance in winter conditions:

The MICHELIN X-ICE SNOW+ gets you reliably through the winter. Its V-shaped tread pattern with wider lateral grooves provides strong lateral grip and an efficient claw effect. This gives you stability and control in deep snow and on icy roads.

Built to last through many Winters:

MICHELIN MaxTouch technology distributes forces evenly during acceleration, braking and steering. This helps to ensure a long service life. The tyres offer up to 40% more mileage than the previous generation (3) – without compromising on control on winter roads.

Legal notices:

(1) Braking on ice, snow, wet and dry surfaces. Based on external braking tests carried out between February and March 2025 by an independent body, TÜV SÜD Product Service, on behalf of Michelin. The tests were carried out on an Audi Q5 fitted with 235/55R19 105H tyres, using the new MICHELIN X-ICE SNOW + as the baseline (100%) compared with the MICHELIN X-Ice Snow SUV** (98.7%; 96.2%; 86.3% new and 87.9% worn; 92.9%): On ice, measurement of deceleration from 25 km/h to 5 km/h. On snow with ABS, from 30 km/h to 10 km/h. On wet roads (new tyres) from 80 km/h to 20 km/h. On wet roads (worn tyres) from 60 to 20 km/h. On dry roads from 100 km/h to a standstill (0 km/h).

*‘Worn’ means: worn down by machine to the tread depth of the statutory wear indicator in accordance with European Regulation ECE R30r03f.**MICHELIN X-Ice Snow SUV is the previous generation of the MICHELIN X-Ice Snow+.

(2) Acceleration on snow and handling on ice – tests carried out by TÜV SÜD Product Service on behalf of Michelin. Tested in March 2025 in size 235/55 R19 105H on an Audi Q5. Comparison on ice (lateral handling, lap time): MICHELIN X-Ice Snow+ (100%) versus MICHELIN X-Ice Snow SUV (96.9%). Snow acceleration test (5 to 30 km/h): MICHELIN X-Ice Snow+ (100%) compared with MICHELIN X-Ice Snow SUV (98.2%).

(3) Mileage – External tests carried out by the DEKRA TEST CENTER on behalf of Michelin in April 2025. Tested in size 235/55 R19 105H on an Audi Q5. Comparison: MICHELIN X-Ice Snow+ (156 per cent) versus MICHELIN X-Ice Snow SUV (100 per cent). The mileage test was carried out under average real-world conditions (D50) with a mileage of 7,712 km. The projection is based on an estimated remaining tread depth of 3 mm in the centre groove and 1.45 mm on the shoulder of the Front axle. Additionally, the annual mileage per vehicle of 12,000 km in Europe for the whole of 2024, as per the S&G Global database, was taken into account. One winter season corresponds to six months. Results may vary depending on usage, road surface and weather conditions.

(4) Rolling resistance – tests carried out in March 2025 by TÜV SÜD Product Service on behalf of Michelin. Measurements taken on a drum test rig in the size 235/55 R19 105H. Comparison: MICHELIN X-Ice Snow+ (6.2 kg/t) versus MICHELIN X-Ice Snow SUV (6.5 kg/t). Results may vary depending on usage, road surface and weather conditions.
