The ultimate winter

Millbrook’s winter proving grounds in Northern Finland, 300km north of the Arctic Circle, are home to purpose-built indoor and outdoor winter test tracks for vehicle and tire testing.

The Finnish test teams specialize in year-round cold weather testing. The facilities allow for simultaneous, controlled and repeatable testing on snow, ice, and wet and dry asphalt, 365 days a year.
