Why Choose Specialised Tyres for Hybrid Cars?

Hybrid vehicles often combine the benefits of electric and traditional combustion engines, but their unique design requires specific tyres. These tyres help maintain fuel efficiency and handle the extra weight that hybrid cars typically carry due to their battery systems. The right tyres can significantly affect your car’s performance, mileage, and safety.

Key Benefits of Hybrid Car Tyres

• Fuel Efficiency: Tyres designed for hybrid cars have low rolling resistance, which means less friction on the road. This helps your vehicle maintain better fuel efficiency and extends the battery’s electric range.

• Durability: Hybrid car tyres are engineered to handle the extra weight of the vehicle’s battery system, providing longer-lasting durability and better wear resistance.

• Noise Reduction: Hybrid tyres are designed to complement the quiet nature of hybrid vehicles. They offer lower road noise, making for a smoother and quieter ride.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Do I need special tyres for my hybrid car?

A: Yes, hybrid vehicles benefit from tyres specifically designed for them. These tyres have lower rolling resistance to improve fuel economy, enhanced durability to manage the car’s additional weight, and better noise reduction for a quieter drive.

Q: Can I use regular tyres on my hybrid vehicle?

A: While regular tyres can be used, they may not provide the same level of efficiency or longevity as tyres designed for hybrids. Hybrid tyres are engineered to optimise performance, reduce fuel consumption, and handle the heavier weight of the car’s battery.

Q: How do hybrid tyres improve fuel efficiency?

A: Hybrid tyres are designed with low rolling resistance, which reduces the amount of energy needed to move the vehicle. This means the engine (or electric motor) uses less energy, improving fuel efficiency and extending the battery’s range.

Q: How often should I check the pressure on my hybrid car tyres?

A: Tyre pressure should be checked at least once a month or before long trips. Maintaining the correct pressure is essential for hybrid vehicles to maximise fuel efficiency and ensure even tyre wear.

Q: How long do hybrid car tyres last?

A: Hybrid car tyres typically last between 40,000 to 60,000 miles, depending on driving conditions and how well they are maintained. Regular rotation, proper inflation, and alignment checks can help extend the life of your tyres.

Q: What are the signs that I need new tyres on my hybrid car?

A: Common signs include low tread depth, uneven wear, decreased grip in wet conditions, or visible damage like cracks or bulges. If you notice any of these signs, it's time to replace your tyres.

Electric & Hybrid Tyre Performance

Due to the structure and compartments of an electric vehicle, the battery is heavier than a usual engine and therefore, needs more power to get the vehicle started. By choosing premium, electric and hybrid tyres, you can ensure your tyres will respond well to the extra power and weight of the car and reduce the longer braking distance hybrid and electric cars are usually susceptible to. Choosing the correct electric car tyre or hybrid tyre will increase the longevity and performance of your EV or HEV as well as keep other drivers on the road safe. Electric Tyres Noise LevelsWith the large reduction in engine noise for the electric and hybrid vehicles in comparison to regular vehicles, they perform well with tyres designed to reduce noise levels when driving at high speeds. The Goodyear Wrangler HP is an excellent choice to keep the hybrid vehicle smooth and quiet.How to Identify Suitable Electric TyresAlthough there is currently no standard for identifying electric or hybrid tyres, many manufacturers, such as Continental have made the distinction between the two by using E or EV. Well-known brands such as Bridgestone have developed their Ecopia tyre range which is an eco-friendly alternative.We identify all suitable tyres using the tag: EV/HEV

Reduction in Rolling Resistance

To reflect the performance of an EV or hybrid electric vehicle, it is recommended that tyres are fitted with low rolling resistance to help save energy and increase fuel efficiency. These hybrid tyres offer excellent grip and safety without compromising on battery performance. As a great premium option, try the Bridgestone Turanza T005.
