The Kumho Ecsta PS71 EV is an ultra-high-performance summer tyre specifically engineered for electric vehicles. It builds upon the popular PS71 performance pattern with upgraded construction, reduced weight, and improved rolling resistance to enhance energy efficiency and extend vehicle range. The tyre features a modified asymmetrical tread pattern with large blocks and wide notches designed for exceptional grip and control on both wet and dry surfaces, offering excellent aquaplaning resistance and secure handling. Key technologies include high-dispersion micro silica compound technology for improved wear and fuel efficiency, high-strength ultra-light hybrid components, and an enhanced profile design that reduces distortion during powerful EV acceleration. The tyre delivers best-in-class dry braking performance and confident wet-weather grip, making it suitable for electric passenger cars and SUVs across various road conditions. Noise levels have been noted as a compromise, with some users reporting higher road noise.
