Korea-based tire maker Hankook Tire has introduced iON evo and iON evo SUV, two tires specifically designed for high-performance EVs and summer driving conditions.

Hankook says its proprietary technologies deliver superior handling and wet grip as well as reduced tread wear, rolling resistance and noise.

The iON evo is available in eight sizes from 18 to 21 inches; the iON evo SUV is available in eight sizes from 18 to 22 inches.

“The acceleration in the performance EV market means that drivers are looking for tires that maximize their experience during the varied conditions that summer driving can bring,” said Kijong Kil, Hankook Tire Vice President of RE Development.
