Nokian TF00024 Hakkapeliitta R5 EV 265/40R22 106T Studless Winter Tire

The Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 EV is a premium studless winter tire engineered specifically for electric vehicles, hybrids, passenger cars, crossovers, and SUVs. Designed with environmentally conscious technology, this tire delivers exceptional ice and snow performance while maximizing safety, comfort, and driving range for modern EVs and hybrid vehicles.

Arctic Grip Crystal Technology: Third-generation microscopic grip crystals are embedded throughout the tread compound, working like built-in studs to create sharp, aggressive grip edges. As the tire wears, these crystals continuously emerge to activate a reserve grip system, ensuring consistent winter traction throughout the tire's life.

• Non-studded winter tire with official ice grip certification for superior ice braking performance
• SilentDrive Technology with acoustic foam inner liner reduces road noise and cabin resonance for ultra-quiet operation
• Green Trace compound optimized for low rolling resistance to extend EV range and improve fuel efficiency
• Double Block Grip design with increased shoulder tread blocks for superior handling on slippery surfaces
• Directional tread pattern for enhanced water evacuation and grip at high speeds

Designed for Electric Vehicles: The Hakkapeliitta R5 EV addresses the unique challenges of electric and hybrid vehicles, which are heavier due to battery packs and require extra grip for safe stopping. The optimized compound maintains flexibility across all winter temperatures while delivering the low rolling resistance essential for maximizing EV range.

Performance: This tire covers all northern winter conditions, performing predictably on bare, wet, icy, and snowy roads. The tire has earned Consumer Reports recommendations and performs exceptionally in independent testing for ice braking, snow cornering, and hydroplaning resistance. Manufactured in Finland or Dayton, Tennessee, the Hakkapeliitta R5 EV represents Nokian's legendary expertise in winter tire engineering.

Important Note: As a dedicated winter tire with a flexible rubber compound, the Hakkapeliitta R5 EV should only be used when temperatures are consistently below 45°F to prevent premature wear.
