La marca española Velca equipará de serie en su gama de motos eléctricas urbanas neumáticos Michelin City Grip 2
Michelin has an ambition, which is summarized in a phrase: "All sustainable in 2050".The tire manufacturer does not only want.For Michelin, sustainability has gone to the forefront, being as important in its future strategy as offering durable and safe tires.And this applies to all areas, not only to tires.
To give some examples, Michelin, who for many years has manufactures technical soles for different footwear brands, especially sports, now collaborates with Ecoalf in a line of sustainable moccasins whose sole, for the first time, is made taking advantage of the remaining sole of the manufacture of the manufacture of the manufacture of the manufacture of the manufacture ofOther shoes.And in the renowned Michelin guide the chefs and restaurants that demonstrate their commitment co a sustainable gastronomy are also charging a special prominence, for which the Michelin Green Star has created the badge.
But returning to the tires, it should be remembered that, at present, Michelin tires already contain almost 30% of sustainable materials.Not long ago the French manufacturer gave us his recipe of how he will get to the 100% sustainable tire for 2050.Meanwhile, we already have the Michelin and.Primacy, an eco-responsible tire that saves fuel and extends the autonomy of electric vehicles.Or the new Michelin Pilot Sport EV, especially developed to adapt to the specifications of the new generation of electric sports vehicles.
Recently we have also seen a competition tire prototype manufactured with 46% sustainable materials, which will be used in a hydrogen prototype in resistance tests.Michelin continues to resort to the competition as a test laboratory to test solutions that will subsequently apply to their street cars tires.
Michelin has not yet launched a tire developed specifically for electric motorcycles, although we may not be late to see such a solution in the market.More and more manufacturers are committed to electromobility, and the brand is involved in competitions such as Motoe.If the "play" is repeated between Formula E and the new Michelin Pilot Sport EV, users electric motorcycles of new generation will also have "footwear" Michelin at their disposal.
Meanwhile, Michelin has signed an alliance with Velca so that the Spanish electric scooters manufacturer its range with Michelin City Grip 2 tires.Michelin joins Velca when offering users safe and sustainable mobility in big cities, something very necessary in these times when the electric motorcycle provides individuality and versatility to move intelligently and unpaidly contaminated in the greatcities.
During a test day we could conduct some of Velca's electric scooters, equipped with the new Michelin City Grip 2.A tire specially developed for scooters, which stands out by characteristics such as the incorporation of silica (first time in this segment) and the rubber compound or a special drawing that provides a magnificent grip, especially in wet and sliding surfaces.Available in 30 dimensions for tires of 12 to 16 inches, it is also a tire with M+S marking, maximum security sign in any climatological situation.We could say, therefore, that we are facing the "All Season" tire or "all time" for Scooters.
As for Velca's motorcycles, the range has four models, all of them very attractive "retro" aesthetics, and with removable batteries, which allows its recharge comfortably at home in a domestic plug.We tried the most powerful, the calima and the section S, with 4 engine.000 watios, equivalent in benefits to a 125 cm3 scooter.Autonomy can reach the 80 km without problems in the first case, and the 100 km in the tramontana s model, with an answer to the soft accelerator that combines progressivity and forcefulness, and that allows us to move with great agility between urban traffic.The range is completed with the Bora models (which can be driven with cyclomotor permission) and section in its 3 version.000 watios and double battery.
