Features and Benefits

Electric vehicles have a large increase in weight because batteries are hefty, putting additional strain on electric vehicle tires. Tires for electric vehicles bear a larger weight and must endure high immediate torque; therefore, they have stronger structures and more robust rubber formulations. The Yokohama Advan Sport, EV A/S tires, are cutting-edge all-season tires that offer the perfect balance of comfort and efficiency thanks to their long tread life and refined design.

• Enhanced all-season traction: Its all-season compound with silica and a unique mixing technique boosts all-season traction. Its wave sipes & Z grooves contribute to better traction in the rain and snow by creating biting edges. In addition, its three straight grooves and one serpentine groove remove any standing water from the tread to improve wet grip. Additionally, the serpentine groove offers better winter traction.
• Responsive handling: Tire’s performance shoulder with extra-large outside shoulder blocks for improved cornering. Its enhanced sidewall structure provides the ideal balance of dynamic handling and ride comfort. These tires are also designed for excellent handling and responsiveness, with evenly distributed pressure over the contact patch, making them ideal for electric vehicles' high torque.
• Increased longevity: Its innovative tread design ensures a long-lasting tread life. Furthermore, its upgraded rubber compound enhances mileage and snow performance.
• Quiet and comfortable drive: The tire's improved sidewall and 4-pitch pattern noise reduction feature contribute to a quiet and comfortable ride.
