Michelin Crossclimate 2 VOL
EU tyre label for every size: 6 sizes of this all-season tyre compared with the rest of the market
The Michelin Crossclimate 2 VOL is a all-season tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 6 sizes (6 registrations including load and speed variants), for 18″ to 20″ rims.
Wet grip is rated B in every size, fuel efficiency A–B and external rolling noise 71 dB. Every size carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF), the mark for tyres tested in severe snow.
The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 235/55 R18 (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency A · 71 dB), the weakest 235/40 R19 (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency B · 71 dB).
On the EU market since April 2021; the earliest production week registered is 45/2019.
How it compares in its sizes
We compared each size with all other all-season tyres of the same size and class in EPREL (6 sizes had at least four rivals). A size scores when its label is at least as good as 75% of them.
Strongest point: wet grip. Weakest point: rolling noise, where most same-size rivals do as well or better.

Wet braking from 80 km/h
≈37 m with wet grip class B, the most common class in this size.
Fuel efficiency
Class A vs the typical C: ≈0.32 L/100 km less, about 47 litres less over 15,000 km for a 1,500 kg car.
Rolling noise
71 dB against a median of 71 dB in this size.
Estimates from the class ranges in Regulation (EU) 2020/740. A label class is a range, so a real tyre can sit anywhere inside it. Every 3 dB doubles the sound energy.
All 6 sizes
The small figure under each class is the share of same-size, same-season tyres this size matches or beats (“–” when fewer than five tyres share the size).
