Since quieter and less-vibrating tires offer a more comfortable driving experience, our research drills deep into the details on the sound of tires. Our sound absorber technology brings into play the varying aspects of technologies, ranging from pattern construction and design to special materials, to reduce road noise in a tire and absorb the shock generated, offering a quieter and more comfortable ride.

To offset the ordeal of unexpected flats, the Hankook Runflat System (HRS) has reinforced the sidewalls of its tires to ensure their peak performance. This means that the tire retains its shape even with drops in internal air pressure. In fact, with our runflat tire technology, a punctured tire is still able to travel a good 80 km or more at up to speeds of 80km/h.

So long as a vehicle is fitted with our tires, one need not worry about nails, broken bottles or other sharp objects along the path. When a tire is punctured by external shock, the layer of special sealants in our Sealguard tires fills in the hole and effectively prevents air from escaping. Any object-induced punctures 5mm in diameter or smaller are instantly sealed to ensure hassle-free mobility even in the event of emergency.

EV Tires

Electric vehicles (EVs) weigh considerably more and measure a stronger power output than internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs). Therefore, without reinforced loading capacity, grip force, and dramatically reduced noise, EVs cannot drive in optimum conditions. Hankook Tire remains dedicated towards developing advanced technologies to produce the best-in-class EV tires.

EV exclusive tire iON

Hankook introduces the world's first full line-up of exclusive tires for EVs With continuous technological innovation for electric vehicles.

Partnerships

The world’s eyes are fixed on the tire performance that goes far beyond imaginable limits. Hankook Tire has been named the official tire supplier for the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, the most precious EV race, and has also partnered with many global leaders in the EV industry for joint R&D.

Mobility Trend

Airless tires which offer a safe ride, easy maintenance, and sustainable technology all began with our creative imagination for future mobility.

Airless Tire

Unlike ordinary tires, airless tires do not require air pressure and are, therefore, also referred to as air-free fires. With these innovative tires with no air, you don’t ever have to worry about flat tires again. Our game-changing technology in structural design enables a robust, yet dynamic driving experience.
