At the Irish press launch of the new Kia EV9 earlier this week, both models available were equipped with tyres from Continental and Nexen Tire.<\/p>\n

The entry level ‘Earth’ model was fitted with 19 inch Nexen N’Fera Sport SUV tyres in size 255\/60 R19, while the 21 inch wheels on the higher spec ‘GT-line’ were shod with the PremiumContact C tyre from Continental in size 285\/45 R21.<\/p>\n

The latter is said by Continental to benefit from low rolling resistance for greater eco-friendliness and high fuel efficiency, while the noise-breakers in the tread pattern allow for peaceful journeys. The tyre has been designed to be compatible with electric, hybrid and combustion engine vehicles.<\/p>\n

Nexen Tire’s N’Fera Sport SUV is claimed to boast excellent handling performance in both dry and wet driving conditions, thanks to its wide out-side block design. The tyre’s wide longitudinal groove offers improved drainage performance, while its rigid centre block has been designed to provide improve control response and strengthen stability.<\/p>\n

The Kia EV9 is the company\u2019s first three-row electric flagship SUV and has just gone on sale in Ireland.<\/p>\n
