  Feb 17, 202610 minS1

  <p>I recently had the opportunity to attend the launch of Michelin’s new X-Ice Snow+ winter tire. It was an incredibly interesting event, with time spent behind the wheel getting a feel for how the new rubber performs in its natural setting - the frozen and snow-covered Mecaglisse proving grounds deep in the Canadian wilderness.</p><p>A highlight was sitting down with Michelin’s David Griese, who is the Product Category Manager, Winter, for a podcast chat.
