ESCOT is an abbreviation for Excellent & Smart Contour Optimization Theory, which is Kumho's advanced technology to promote safe and comfortable driving.
It sustains the performance of the tyre by maintaining its shape throughout the speed range.
At the same time, the tyre maintains its ground contact pressure distribution to enhance tread life and braking capability, and also optimizes the carcass tension to improve steering stability and comfort.
