The Electric Vehicle Range Hack No One Talks About....!

Video Description

Electric cars are heavy, boast instant torque and are ultra-quiet—all factors that put massive stress on standard tyres, leading to faster wear, reduced range, and noticeable road noise. In this episode of Everything Electric TECH, we dive into the fascinating engineering of the rubber rings that connect your EV to the road and discover how Hankook's iON technology has effectively "reinvented the wheel" via the four key pillars of Hankook's iON lineup: 🪶 i Extreme Lightness: Unique compounds and structural design for lower rolling resistance, boosting battery range by up to 6% 🏃 i Super Mileage: Pro-durable compound and 'round even technology' for even stress distribution, helping tires last up to 15% longer. 🤫 i Sound Absorber: Acoustic foam for low-frequency sound and a unique 'corn husk' tread pattern for high-frequency noise, resulting in an 18% reduction in road noise. 🤝 i Perfect Grip: Optimised profile and 3D interlocking sipes (like Lego bricks!) for superior stability and 10% higher grip From the ABB FIA Formula E World Championships to your daily commute, Hankook is solving the biggest EV tyre challenges. ➡️ Find out more about the Hankook iON lineup (including the iON GT with 77% recycled materials, iON Flex Climate, and iON Evo) here: https://www.hankooktire.com/uk/en/brand/ion.html @hankooktire_global | AD 0:00 - The EV Tyre Challenge: Torque, Weight, and Silence 1:17 - How EV Weight and Torque Impacts Tyres 2:18 - Hankook iON Technology is the Solution 2:35 - Boosting EV Range with i Extreme Lightness 3:24 - Making Tires Last 15% Longer with i Super Mileage 3:52 - Reducing Road Noise by 18% with i Sound Absorber 4:42 - Higher Grip and Safety with i Perfect Grip 5:18 - Formula E Validation and Consumer Lineup Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: https://everythingelectric.show Check out our sister channel Everything Electric CARS: https://www.youtube.com/@fullychargedshow Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff Become an Everything Electric Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow Become a YouTube member: use JOIN button above Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy : https://buff.ly/2GybGt0 Subscribe for episode alerts and the Everything Electric newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/ Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show Find us on X: https://x.com/Everyth1ngElec Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/officialeverythingelectric To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: [email protected] Everything Electric SYDNEY - Sydney Olympic Park 6th, 7th & 8th March 2026 EE NORTH (Harrogate) - 8th & 9th May 2026 EE WEST (Cheltenham) - 12th & 13th June 2026 EE GREATER LONDON (Twickenham) - 11th & 12th Sept 2026 #fullychargedshow #everythingelectricshow #homeenergy #cleanenergy #battery #electriccars #electric-vehicles-uk #tyres #hankook #HankookiON
