As you know, Electric vehicles (EVs) use electricity stored in rechargeable batteries to power an electric motor and move the vehicle. Battery weight makes the car up to 30% heavier than the standard version of the same model. It can cause abnormal wear on non-EV-specific tires. For this reason, Hnkook produces a special lineup. One of the most outstanding models from their lineup is iON Evo AS SUV. It uses a compound specifically to evenly spread road pressure to account for this difference and extend tire life.
For instance, Hankook iON Evo AS SUV IH01A uses all new rubber compound shaped into a symmetrical pattern with a heavy siping design. The 3D GripKontrol contour of the tire ensures exceptional performance in wet, dry, and light snow situations. In addition, a high concentration silica rubber compound made from the best materials increases tread life and ride comfort. Its unique pattern benefits from noise canceling materials, shaped into multi-pitch sequencing. As a result, the cabin noise becomes lower by up to 9dB without losing acceleration and mileage performance.
Compared with the passenger version(iON Evo AS), the SUV version benefits from reinforced sidewalls designed to help protect its casing against punctures and cuts. Another improvement of this model is its stiffer construction which provides better stability and handling for heavier vehicles. It is the best fitment for BMW iX, Audi Q4, Mercedes-Benz EQB, Jaguar I-Pace, and Subaru Solterra. The best part is that Hankook has provided a 50,000-mile guarantee on the iON Evo AS SUV. This guarantee provides the buyer with peace of mind and trust in the quality of the goods, which is a fantastic approach to strengthen the relationship between the producer and the customer. Consequently, this encourages customers to select Hankook tires over those of its rivals.
