The iON evo AS (IH01) by Hankook Tire is specially engineered to meet the unique demands of electric vehicles. Combining cutting-edge technologies, this tire offers an ideal balance of performance, durability, and noise comfort. It delivers excellent grip while controlling tread wear and significantly reducing road noise, making it the perfect companion for EV drivers in all driving conditions.

• iON INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY: optimizes contact pressure for even wear and extended tire life.
• Grip Claw Technology and Progrip Compound: ensure superior traction on dry, wet, and light snow conditions.
• Noise Guard Technology and Opti Pitch Technology: effectively reduce road noise for enhanced driving comfort.

iON INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY is at the core of the iON evo AS design. This technology optimizes the tire’s contact structure through Round Even Technology, ensuring uniform contact pressure across the tread. This is especially important for electric vehicles, which can weigh up to 30% more than internal combustion engine cars. By minimizing uneven wear, the tire achieves a longer lifespan, providing excellent cost efficiency with less frequent replacements and consistent performance over time.

The iON evo AS also features advanced grip performance with Grip Claw Technology and the Progrip Compound. Strategically placed 3D sipes maintain the tire’s optimal shape, improving traction on dry, wet, and lightly snowy roads. The specially formulated rubber compound withstands the high torque of electric motors, while Grip Boost Technology increases lateral and cornering stiffness, delivering stable and confident handling in all conditions.

For acoustic comfort, Hankook has developed Noise Guard Technology and Opti Pitch Technology. Noise Guard expands the groove surface area to reduce tread pattern noise generated by road contact, while Opti Pitch optimizes the number and size of pitches to minimize unwanted sound. This dual approach significantly lowers tire noise, making every ride quieter and more pleasant—an essential feature for electric vehicles where silence enhances the driving experience.
