About This Tire

The Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 ev 235/55R20 is a summer tire designed for electric vehicle drivers who prioritize nimble handling and reliable traction in warm weather driving. Its tread design and compound focus on reduced rolling resistance, lower weight, and enhanced load-bearing capacity specifically engineered for battery electric vehicles.

The tire features Hankook's HSSC (Highly Enriched Synthetic Silica Compound) molded into an asymmetric tread pattern with stiff outside shoulder blocks for lateral grip and dry handling. Four wide circumferential grooves evacuate water from the contact patch for hydroplaning resistance, while interlocking outside grooves and optimized pitch sequences enhance wet grip and cornering performance. With only 3 driver evaluations available, comprehensive performance data remains limited at this time.

Compared to standard summer performance tires, it emphasizes the unique requirements of electric vehicles including energy efficiency and higher load capacity. Overall, it's a solid choice for electric vehicle owners used primarily for spirited driving in dry and wet conditions during warmer months.
