As electric vehicles (EVs) become popular, and there’re a lot of manufactures launching tyres specific for EVs, we tend to notice that EV tyres are wider and with thinner side walls (means the aspect ratio is higher) compare to the traditional passenger car tyres.

Here are some reasons why EV needs those specific EV car tyres:

Reason1 Weight Distribution

EV batteries are positioned low in the car, adding more pressure to the tyres. Wider tyres help distribute this weight evenly, improving stability and handling.

Reason 2. Instant Torque & Traction

EVs deliver power instantly, so wider tyres provide better grip, helping the vehicle handle acceleration and braking more safely. Thinner sidewalls reduce flex, enhancing responsiveness and stability, better for high-torque cars.

Reason 3. Noise Reduction

Wider tyres are often with simpler tread patterns, which reduce road noise by minimizing vibrations. This helps maintain the quiet nature of EVs, which is especially noticeable on smooth roads.

Reason 4. Efficiency & Range

Simpler tread patterns reduce rolling resistance, allowing the tyres to roll more efficiently. This improves energy usage, helping the vehicle travel further on a single charge
