Product description & features

Kumho Ecsta PS71 EV is a summer ultra-high-performance tyre developed for modern electric cars and sporty petrol or hybrid models that demand sharp steering and dependable grip. It’s built to cope with the instant torque and higher kerb weights common to EVs, making it a strong choice for fast road driving on UK A-roads and motorways.

An asymmetric tread pattern helps balance dry cornering stability with wet-weather security. Broad circumferential grooves and well-placed lateral channels are designed to move water away quickly, supporting confident braking and reducing the risk of aquaplaning in heavy rain. A stiffer outer shoulder and optimised contact patch help the tyre hold its line through bends and maintain stable handling during rapid direction changes.

The casing and belt package are engineered to stay composed under load, which can translate into more consistent wear on heavier vehicles and a reassuring feel at speed. For everyday refinement, the tread layout is tuned to limit pattern noise, while the compound aims to deliver strong grip without unnecessary rolling resistance—helpful for drivers looking to protect EV range without compromising control.

Available to buy online in all available sizes on Tyres.co.uk, with fitment options typically covering larger rims (commonly 18–22 inch, depending on vehicle). Choose fitting at a nearby garage of your choice or opt for delivery to suit your schedule.
