Ultra-High-Performance 'Ventus S1 evo3 ev'
Emerging as a Key Partner in Porsche's Electrification
On July 18, Hankook Tire & Technology announced that it will supply its ultra-high-performance tires exclusively designed for electric vehicles as original equipment tires for Porsche's all-electric sports utility vehicle (SUV), the Macan, in Germany.
The supplied product, the 'Ventus S1 evo3 ev,' is characterized by an optimal balance of powerful driving performance, excellent energy efficiency, and low noise. Hankook Tire has satisfied Porsche with its innovative technology, earning the 'NE0' mark, which designates original equipment tires for new vehicles.
Hankook Tire expects to strengthen its position as a key partner in Porsche's electrification sector through this original equipment tire supply. The company has expanded its portfolio from the brand's first electric sports car, the Taycan, in 2020, to now include the Macan.
Hankook Tire continues to maintain a strong partnership with Porsche in both internal combustion engine and electrification sectors by consistently supplying ultra-high-performance tires for the super-premium SUV Cayenne, the Taycan, the high-performance sports roadster 718 Boxster, and the four-door sports sedan Panamera.
Meanwhile, the 'Ventus S1 evo3 ev' minimizes rolling resistance, which greatly affects driving range, to provide ideal energy efficiency and durability. Its wide and stable tread block (the tire surface in contact with the road) delivers outstanding grip on both wet and dry surfaces.
