On display at Electrify Expo will be Hankook’s full family of iON products designed for EV performance across segments and weather conditions. Hankook’s iON line is unparalleled in the market and built on exclusive technology that focuses on tread wear, noise reduction and unique grip performance for EVs.
The display will showcase an EV offering for every season, including the iON evo and iON evo SUV, which deliver uncompromised performance in summer conditions for high-performance EVs. Also on display will be the iON evo AS and iON evo AS SUV, designed for all-season performance. In addition, Hankook will showcase new seasonal offerings which will be released in the U.S. next year.
Hankook’s experience in EVs is extensive, with the company’s tires optimized for EVs in use by leading global automotive brands.
