Davanti launches brand new ultra-high performance tyre – Protoura Sport Evo
2nd November 2026
Drivers can unleash the full potential of their vehicle with the launch of Protoura Sport Evo, our newest flagship ultra-high performance (UHP) tyre now available.
Built on the success of the original Protoura Sport – launched in 2021 – the Evo model is engineered to set new standards in handling, braking and driving confidence across both wet and dry conditions.
Available in rim sizes ranging from 17”-22”, Davanti is meeting demand for the evolving automotive landscape. The ultra-high performance (UHP) sector has become a critical pillar of the tyre market, as rim sizes of 17 inches and above now account for nearly 60% of overall tyre sales, while 19-inch fitments alone represent 1 in every 6 tyres sold*.
Developed through comprehensive research, advanced virtual design, and rigorous real-world testing, Protoura Sport Evo has been validated at leading European testing facilities to ensure peak durability, predictability and safety. Performance data and feedback gathered through our long-standing partnership with the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve (AIA) racing school in Portugal has also directly informed its dynamic tuning under extreme track conditions, so motorists can feel in control whether driving on the road or on the track.
Engineered for enhanced handling and stopping power
Designed specifically for modern UHP vehicles and performance SUVs, the Protoura Sport Evo incorporates several key technical features:
- Silica-Enriched Compound & Continuous Centre Rib: Delivering superior cornering traction, high-speed stability, and a direct steering response.
- EV+ Ready Construction: Structural optimisations are designed to handle the instant torque, heavier weight, and quiet cabin requirements of electric vehicles (EVs).
- A-Rated Wet Grip: Delivering exceptional braking performance and maximum safety in rainy conditions.
- Serrated Tread Block Edges: These bite into the road surface under longitudinal load to deliver significantly shorter braking distances and controlled stopping power.
- Constricted Outer Noise Channels: These compress airflow to reduce cabin noise, providing a quieter and more refined driving experience.
- Integrated Rim Guard: Protecting alloy wheels from kerb scuffs and everyday damage.
The Davanti Protoura Sport Evo is initially available in 29 key rim sizes ranging from 17” to 22”.
