The Michelin Defender 2 is a standard touring all-season tire designed for sedans, coupes, crossovers, and minivans. It is specifically built to handle the higher weight and torque of modern vehicles, including electric vehicles (EVs). While most tires focus on a few years of performance, the Defender 2 is built to provide a consistent, quiet, and safe ride until the very last kilometer of tread.
EverTread™ 2.0 Compound: A next-generation, high-stiffness rubber formulation that provides exceptional abrasion resistance, allowing it to outlast leading competitors by up to 40,000 kilometers in wear tests.
MaxTouch 2.0™ Technology: Optimizes the tire’s contact patch to evenly distribute the forces of acceleration, braking, and cornering. This prevents irregular wear and ensures the tire stays quiet as it ages.
SipeLock™ Technology: Features 3D interlocking sipes that provide additional biting edges for grip on wet roads and light snow, while keeping the tread blocks rigid for stable handling on dry pavement.
Piano Acoustic Tuning: An advanced tread pattern design that minimizes the vibrations and road noise generated by each tread block, resulting in one of the quietest in-cabin experiences available.
EV-Compatible Construction: Reinforced internal architecture allows the tire to easily manage the heavy battery weight and instant torque of electric vehicles without premature wear.
Category: Standard Touring All-Season
Vehicle Compatibility: Family Sedans, Minivans, Crossovers, and EVs
Tire Type: All-Season M+S (Mud and Snow Rated)
Longevity: Features an industry-leading 130,000 km (80,000 mile) limited treadwear warranty—one of the highest in the tire industry.
The Defender 2 is available in over 38 sizes ranging from 16" to 20". Because it is a top choice for high-volume vehicles like the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Tesla Model 3, inventory can move quickly.
