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. It features technologies like Noise Guard, Quiet Flex, and Sound Absorber to minimize road noise. Additionally, it incorporates features like ProDurable Compound and Opti Cure for extended tread life and even wear, as well as Grip Claw and Grip Boost for improved grip and stability.
Here’s a more detailed look at the tire’s features:
Noise Reduction:
- A noise-absorbing material is placed inside the tire to reduce cavity noise by up to 9dB, contributing to a quieter ride.
- Noise Guard Technology:This technology reduces tread pattern noise by optimizing the groove design and surface area.
- Optimized Multi-Pitch Sequencing:The tire’s pitch sequence (the arrangement of tread blocks) is optimized to minimize noise and ensure a quiet driving experience.
- Knurling Technology:Narrowing the air path within the grooves with knurling helps reduce tread pattern noise while maintaining the groove’s performance.
Performance and Durability:
- ProDurable Compound:This compound, composed of high-concentration silica and eco-friendly materials, is designed to provide long-lasting mileage and even wear, even under the additional weight and torque of electric vehicles.
- This compound is designed to deliver satisfactory mileage and even wear, addressing the specific demands of electric vehicles.
- This technology enhances grip and cornering stability, providing confident handling in various driving conditions.
- This technology increases tire stiffness for improved grip, especially in cornering, addressing the unique demands of electric vehicles.
- Optimized Ground Pressure Distribution:The tire is designed to distribute ground pressure evenly, which contributes to longer tread life and less frequent replacements.
- Extended Range:The tire’s low rolling resistance helps extend battery range by reducing energy consumption.
