Kumho Tire provides tyres for latest all-electric models

Kumho Tire is supplying its ECSTA PS71 SUV as original equipment (OE) for the ŠKODA Enyaq and Elroq. The tyre will be available in two EV-compatible sizes: 235/55 R19 and 255/50 R19.

The ECSTA PS71 SUV is a flagship model within the ECSTA range, a lineup specifically developed for today’s high-powered SUV models. Its handling and braking performance are optimised for both dry and wet driving conditions.

Building on the core technology of the existing PS71 range, the SUV version features enhancements tailored to larger vehicles, including a more robust structure, an increased contact area for improved braking performance, and enhanced fuel efficiency. Its asymmetrical tread pattern, combined with new hybrid technologies, ensures stable handling at high speeds across a range of road conditions.

“Our supply of OE tyres to the automaker is a testament to our quality and technological prowess,” said Insoo Kim. “We will continue to leverage our world-class quality and technology to expand our OE tyre supply for global premium carmakers.”
