Nokian TF00053 Hakkapeliitta R5 EV SilentDrive 265/35R19 98T XL Winter Tire

The Nokian Tyres Hakkapeliitta R5 EV (TF00053) is a non-studded winter tire purpose-built for electric vehicles, hybrids, passenger cars, crossovers, and SUVs. Engineered with environmentally friendly technology, it delivers maximum winter safety, superior acoustic comfort, and an extended driving range for EV and hybrid drivers.

Arctic Winter Grip

• Arctic Grip Crystals embedded in the tread compound act like micro-studs, creating sharp biting edges for best-in-class ice traction without metal studs
• Double Block Grip shoulder design increases the rubber and biting edges on the road for enhanced handling on packed snow and ice
• Directional tread pattern with angled grooves channels water and slush efficiently out of the contact patch, reducing hydroplaning and slushplaning risk

SilentDrive™ Technology

• An acoustic foam layer bonded to the inner liner absorbs tire cavity resonance, significantly reducing in-cabin road noise — critical for the quiet interior of electric vehicles
• The Silent Touch tread design further minimizes airborne tread noise by channeling airwaves through the footprint before they contact tread elements

EV-Optimized Performance

• Green Trace compound made with natural rubber, plant-derived oils, and pine resins delivers low rolling resistance to extend EV driving range
• Eco-conscious construction uses recycled steel and sustainably sourced materials to reduce environmental impact
• Reinforced XL (Extra Load) construction rated at Load Index 98T supports the additional weight of EV battery packs

Safety & Durability Features

• Winter Safety Indicator (WSI) — Nokian's patented tread depth indicator provides a quick visual check of remaining winter tread life
• Three Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) certified for severe snow service
• Designed and tested in the most demanding Nordic winter conditions

Sized at 265/35R19 98T XL (Nokian part number TF00053), this tire is the ideal upgrade for high-performance electric and hybrid vehicles that demand uncompromising winter safety paired with the low noise and extended range that EV drivers require.
