Website says "Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake" so these are now on my list.I wonder if these tires will be 3MPSF certified? The non-EV tires are, so these will probably be. Very interesting; they look great!
Especially if Toyo is able to keep them energy efficient for EV use.Website says "Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake" so these are now on my list.
The all-new Toyo Open Country A/T III EV is a cutting-edge EV-specific all-terrain replacement tire designed to increase the capability of today’s most popular EV trucks and SUVs. The innovative aerodynamic and rolling resistance features, such as a sidewall AeroWing™, advanced tread compound, and optimized tread pattern, address the unique vehicle requirements, like rapid acceleration, additional weight, and range efficiency. It also delivers exceptional off-road performance, confidence-inspiring on-road handling, and ride comfort – all while being equipped with Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake for all-weather driving confidence. The Open Country A/T III EV provides a significant upgrade to enhance your EV’s capability, appearance, and efficiency.
I had a set of Toyo P295/45R18 tires on my 2000 SVT Lightning, and they wore and performed very well.I'm unfamiliar with this brand, but I'm intrigued. Will probably need new tires around the time these come out.
Not to mention that they maxed out the fuel efficiency rating with no deprecation of any other characteristic. Seems too good to be true.They have a 1-5 scale at the bottom of the page comparing these to the non-EV version of the tire. EV version is listed as 5 for efficiency while non-EV is 3.5. It will be interesting to see how these work out in real world testing. It will be on my list when I eventually need new tires.
The tread "looks" like it would not be a quiet ride.The word "quiet" doesn't appear in their description of the tires. "AeroWing" is nebulous word salad. They look cool.
