EV Tyres
EV tyres are designed for higher weight, torque and low noise.
What is EV Tyres?
They often have low rolling resistance. Some include foam to reduce noise. They wear faster under high torque. Electric cars are heavier and deliver instant torque, which can increase tyre wear, especially with an enthusiastic driving style. Tyres marked HL have a higher load capacity at the same size. Choosing tyres with low rolling resistance can noticeably improve range.
How it works
Special compounds and construction handle loads.
Why it matters for your car
Check load ratings. Rotate tyres regularly.
