Description
The Hankook IH01A iON evo AS SUV is an all-season tire specifically designed for electric SUVs, focusing on reducing noise and enhancing performance for EVs. It features technologies like “Noise Guard” and “Quiet Flex” to minimize road noise, alongside “ProDurable Compound” and “Opti Cure” for extended tread life and even wear. This tire also aims to improve grip and cornering stability, crucial for the higher torque and weight of electric vehicles.
Here’s a more detailed breakdown:
Key Features and Technologies:
- Noise Guard: Reduces tread pattern noise through internal groove modifications.
- Quiet Flex: Uses noise-absorbing material inside the tire to minimize cavity noise by up to 9dB.
- Optimized Multi-Pitch Sequencing: Adjusts the pitch sequence to minimize noise and ensure a quiet ride.
- Noise Guard: Reduces tread pattern noise through internal groove modifications.
- ProDurable Compound: Designed to handle the increased weight and torque of electric vehicles, promoting even tread wear.
- Grip Claw Technology: Provides enhanced grip and cornering stability, important for EVs with instant torque.
- Grip Boost Technology: Increases cornering and lateral rigidity to improve grip performance.
- Opti Cure: Optimizes curing technology to reduce rolling resistance and improve battery range.
- ProDurable Compound: Designed to handle the increased weight and torque of electric vehicles, promoting even tread wear.
- Offers strong traction and handling in various weather conditions, including dry, wet, and light snow.
- Optimized Ground Pressure Distribution: Ensures even wear across the tire, extending its lifespan.
- EVolution Compound: Combines high-concentration silica and eco-friendly materials for extended mileage.
- Optimized Ground Pressure Distribution: Ensures even wear across the tire, extending its lifespan.
- Sound-Deadening Layer:Some versions include a sound-deadening foam layer to further minimize noise.
