The Brand

Vredestein is a Dutch premium tyre brand founded in 1909 and owned by India's Apollo Tyres since 2009. It is recognised for its winter and all-season ranges, along with ultra-high-performance summer tyres, and for tread and sidewall styling developed with Italian designer Giugiaro. It suits drivers wanting a European premium option across seasonal and performance categories.

The Pattern
Ultrac+

A durable, comfort-focused Vredestein tyre engineered for longer mileage on everyday family and compact cars.

The Vredestein Ultrac+ is built as the successor to the Ultrac, with a focus on making tread last longer and lowering the whole-life cost of running a set. It uses an updated compound and a square footprint that spreads pressure evenly across the tread, which Vredestein's own testing links to a marked gain in mileage and reduced wear. A revised sidewall design and centre rib are intended to keep steering responsive while smoothing out the ride on daily journeys.

  • Square footprint spreads contact pressure evenly across the tread
  • Updated compound aimed at longer tread life and lower wear
  • Slightly reduced rolling resistance to help efficiency and range
  • Centre rib with lateral grooves for steering response
  • Revised sidewall and flex zone for a smoother ride
Best for Everyday family and compact cars covering high mileage
