The Hankook Ventus SI evo3 EV tire

The other South Korean tire manufacturer, Hankook , appears to specializing increasingly in high-end performance tires, especially with its Ventus line. Within this line, we note that the impressive SI evo3 is also available in an EV version. This is an ultra-high performance summer tire (not all-season) and is not recommended for cold temperatures. But it is highly recommended for cars like Porsches! The price? If you take four of them, expect to spend as much as $2,000, perhaps more.

The Hankook Kinergy AS X EV tire

On the other hand, if you have a more “modest” electric vehicle, the same South Korean manufacturer offers you an all-season touring tire (except winter, of course), the Kinergy AS X ev . However, it's only available in two sizes for now, 235/55 R19 and 255/50 R19, which makes it an appropriate replacement tire mainly for an SUV or CUV. Available at a “reasonable” price around $225 to $250, this would be one of the most indicative products of what is to come to the market in the near-future.
