About This Tire

The Hankook iON evo AS 235/45R18 is a grand touring all-season tire, designed for electric vehicle, sedan, and coupe drivers who prioritize quiet operation and balanced traction in everyday driving. Its tread design and compound focus on EV-specific weight management, noise reduction, and maintaining grip across wet, dry, and light snow conditions.

The tire features a specialized tread compound developed to handle the heavier weight of electric vehicles, using an optimized curing process for more even road contact. Hankook incorporates 3D GripKontrol sipes working alongside four longitudinal grooves to resist hydroplaning, while tread pattern pitch variation and groove knurling patterns are enhanced by a sound-deadening foam layer to minimize road noise. Driver feedback points to strong dry performance and comfortable ride quality, with reliable wet weather handling in typical driving situations.

Compared to performance-oriented tires, it emphasizes comfort, stability, and long-term usability. Overall, it's a solid choice for electric vehicles and premium sedans used primarily for daily commuting and highway travel in varied weather conditions.
