Kumho PS72 EV

The Kumho PS72 EV is a summer performance tyre developed for modern electric vehicles and high-torque hybrids that need confident grip without sacrificing day-to-day refinement. It’s best suited to UK driving from spring through autumn, delivering responsive handling on A-roads and stable manners on the motorway, while remaining predictable in heavy rain.

Its tread pattern is designed to keep a consistent contact patch under load, helping braking and cornering feel secure. Wide circumferential grooves and carefully shaped lateral channels move water away efficiently to reduce the risk of aquaplaning, while the stiffer outer shoulder supports the tyre during faster direction changes. A high-grip compound tuned for warm and wet conditions helps these tyres maintain traction when the weather turns.

For EV use, the internal construction is engineered to cope with the extra vehicle weight and instant torque that can accelerate wear. By spreading pressure more evenly across the tread, the tyre helps promote steady wear and long-term stability. The tread block layout is also pitched to help limit road noise, and the rolling characteristics are optimised to support efficiency and everyday range without making unrealistic claims. A wide spread of 18–22 inch fitments is available, with many sizes offered in higher load (XL) ratings for heavier EVs and SUVs.

Kumho PS72 EV tyres are available to buy online in all available sizes on Tyres.co.uk, with the choice of fitting at a nearby garage of your choice or delivery to a preferred address.
