EV tyres are specifically designed and recommended for electric vehicles. They are tailored to provide optimal performance, efficiency, and safety for electric cars. EV tyres are designed to carry a heavier weight load and improve rolling resistance, which contributes to higher durability and better range efficiency, allowing EVs to drive further on a charge. These tyres are recommended specifically for EVs, which are heavier, more powerful, and quieter than cars powered by internal combustion engines. As long as you select the correct size, speed and load rating you can legally fit any make of tyre to an electric vehicle. However, a tyre that’s been designed specifically for an EV will ensure you’ll retain the performance and unique characteristics that make your electric vehicle such an enjoyable and safe drive.

It’s always advised where possible to fit the EV approved tyres your electric vehicle was supplied with when new. These are often referred to as the OE tyres (original equipment) and are the tyres developed alongside the vehicle manufacturer to deliver the best performance, comfort, safety and EV battery range.
