Electric Car Tyres Wear Faster🛞
Here's what New Zealand EV owners need to know about tyre wear, replacement intervals, and choosing the right tyres👇

Why do EV tyres wear faster?
There are three main reasons EV tyres tend to wear more quickly than those on petrol vehicles:

1. Greater vehicle weight

EV batteries are heavy. A typical EV is 200–400kg heavier than a comparable petrol vehicle. More weight means more load on each tyre, which increases wear, particularly on the inner and outer shoulder of the tread.

2. Instant torque delivery

Electric motors deliver maximum torque from zero RPM, that's what makes EVs feel so responsive from a standing start. But that instant torque transfer is harder on tyres than the more gradual power delivery of a petrol engine. Hard acceleration, even in normal driving, can accelerate front tyre wear on front-wheel-drive EVs, and rear tyre wear on rear-wheel-drive models.

3. Reduced benefit from regenerative braking on tyres

Regenerative braking is gentler than friction braking, which is mostly good news. But because deceleration forces are applied through the drivetrain rather than the brakes, there can be uneven wear patterns particularly on driven wheels if tyres aren't rotated regularly.
