Michelin Pilot Sport EV Summer Performance Tire

The Michelin Pilot Sport EV is a high-performance summer tire (also called an EV summer performance tire) designed for electric vehicles. It is a member of the Pilot Sport family. It was inspired by Michelin's Formula E experience. It is built to handle the extra weight and instant torque of battery electric and plug-in hybrid sport sedans, crossovers and SUVs.

Key Features:

• ElectricGrip Compound: A high-stiffness rubber compound in the center of the tread. It supports efficient transfer of EV torque and helps give long-lasting wet grip.
• MaxTouch Construction: Optimizes the contact patch. It spreads braking and cornering forces evenly and helps extend tread life.
• Low rolling resistance: Helps support increased battery range.
• Michelin Acoustic Technology: Uses a custom polyurethane foam solution to reduce perceived cabin noise.
• Confident handling: The construction is designed to keep handling stable and responsive, even at high speed.
• Wet-weather design: Wide circumferential channels and lateral grooves move water away from the tire to resist hydroplaning.
• Eco-designed: Built to deliver sporty driving with less environmental impact.

The Pilot Sport EV is a summer tire. It is not marked 3PMSF (Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake), so it is not intended for winter use. Michelin made it for drivers who want sharp steering feel, grip in wet and dry conditions, and a quiet, refined ride in an electric performance vehicle.
