The Hankook iON ST AS (IH61) is an innovative all-season tyre for electric vehicles (EVs). Hankook designed the iON ST AS (IH61) with an understanding of the unique demands of EVs. Unlike traditional vehicles, the instantaneous torque and braking of EVs cause uneven and unpredictable wear on tyres. The iON ST AS (IH61) is engineered to withstand the demands of EVs and reduce the energy consumption to increase driving range. The ProDurable compound contains a high percentage of eco-friendly silica and an eco-friendly polymer that increases the ability of the tyre to maintain its tread. In Hankook’s design of the iON ST AS (IH61), the sipes are interlocked, which helps provide additional support to the tread and the blocks when stopping and turning.
Hankook’s Round Even Technology helps provide more uniform pressure on the tyre during its service life. The design of the iON ST AS (IH61) helps provide a more consistent wear on the tyre during its life. The iON ST AS (IH61) also includes the M+S designation, which identifies tyres that are optimised for all weather and road conditions. Tyres.co.uk sells the iON ST AS (IH61).
