Game changing tyres for electric vehicles
We equip half of all car brands that produce EVs(1) and it's no coincidence
Our engineers work closely with leading electric vehicles manufacturers such as Porsche, Mercedes-AMG, BMW, Volkswagen, Ford, Hyundai, ... to design tyres with performance that matter to EV owners and make electric mobility more enjoyable.

Optimising tyre performance for your EV
Fitting your EV with the right tyres ensures you get an optimal performance in terms of range, longevity (mileage), silence in the cab and safety(2), all while making the most of your driving experience.
Go further between every charge
To maximise battery range, EVs need low rolling resistance tyres. Since 1992 starting with the MICHELIN EnergyTM tyre, we have halved the rolling resistance of our car tyres.(3) Today, we offer tyres, like MICHELIN Pilot Sport EV, that extend range by up to 60km thanks to low rolling resistance.
Go the distance on your set of tyres
EVs need tyres with increased longevity. High torque and battery weight impact the wear of tyres. In 1946, we developed MICHELIN X, the first radial tyre, which significantly increased the durability of our tyres (by 2 to 3 times). Since then, we have continued to offer long-lasting tyres.

Introducing MICHELIN Pilot Sport EV tyre
The MICHELIN Pilot Sport EV tyre is inspired by the heritage of the FIA Formula E championship, from 2014 to 2022.

From pioneers to the new generation of EVs
For more than 100 years, we design innovative mobility solutions that answer drivers' expectations, while minimising their environmental impact.
MICHELIN e.PRIMACY
MICHELIN e.PRIMACY tyre is designed to reduce the energy consumption(5) of passenger cars. It is chosen by car makers to equip their electric, hybrid or low fuel consumption vehicles.
MICHELIN City Grip Saver
MICHELIN City Grip Saver tyre is specially developed for electric scooters. It increases battery range thanks to low rolling resistance(6) while maintaining the renowned longevity of the MICHELIN City Grip range!

(1) Source: Michelin Automotive Original Equipment Department - internal database analysis on December, 2021.
(2) Results may vary according to vehicle, tyre range and size, speed and road conditions.
(3) Rolling resistance of tyres have been divided by 2 between the MICHELIN Energy (RR>12kg/T) compared to MICHELIN e.Primacy and MICHELIN Pilot sport EV (RR <5kg/T)
(4) MICHELIN Acoustic Technology reduces the perceived noise level, inside the car, by nearly 20% (Internal noise measurement, done in 2020 on size 245/45 R19 on KIA Cadenza. Noise level measured on the range "170-230Hz".) Results may vary according to vehicle, tyre range and size, speed and road conditions.
(5) When new, MICHELIN e.PRIMACY generates 2kg/t on average rolling resistance less than competitors equivalent in fuel consumption reduction of up to 0.21l/100km for a VW Golf 7 1.5 TSI or equivalent of gain of up to 7% in battery range for a VW e.Golf. Energy consumption means petrol for thermic and hybrid vehicles, electricity for electric vehicles.
(6) very low rolling resistance thanks to new “Electric ready” silica-based materials with very low power dissipation, so your battery lasts longer than with the original MICHELIN City Grip. (Modelling of power dissipation between a 100/80 - 14 M/C 48S CITY GRIP SAVER TL and a CITY GRIP. Done at the Michelin Research Centre in France, in July 2018).

(7) Low fuel consumption - MICHELIN ENERGY SAVER+ has been awarded by AutoBild as "Eco Champion" in 2013
(8) These extreme situations refer to the practice of racing on track. Excessive speed and other dangerous behavior is prohibited
