YOGYAKARTA - Along with the times and the dwindling of petroleum content, we will finally arrive at the electric car flood and start leaving ordinary cars. But it turns out that apart from fuel and engines, it turns out that tires from electric cars and ordinary ones are different! So what's the reason the electric car tires are different from ordinary car tires?
Color may be both black, size and shape may be the same, but there are some that make the difference between fueled car tires and electric cars, so what's the reason?
According to several sources, apparently there are four reasons that underlie the differences between electric car tires and conventional car tires about their different characters. As for the answer, see the review below!
The first reason is that because the weight of the electric car is heavier, the tires have also been designed in such a way as to be able to adjust the use to support the weight of the electric car.
The reason is, in this case, the increase in weight is due to the fact that the battery used has a fairly heavy weight on the car itself.
With these circumstances, the tire manufacturers have implemented developments to overcome these problems so that they must increase their ability to withstand loads by strengthening sidewall construction and using tougher rubber materials.
The second reason, did you know that the torque produced by this electric car is bigger than ordinary cars. That way, the power channeled to the driving, immediately triggers the driving system instantly. Thus, the character of the electric car tires is prepared to withstand large torques and it is feared that it has the potential to cause wear on the tires.
The third reason, you must pay attention to the aspect of tire noise. Because electric cars usually do not produce sound or are not noisy, contact between tires and asphalt or other contours must be clearer.
This is a challenge for tires so as not to make noise and not to enter the cabin as much as possible, thus disturbing the comfort of the trip.
To work around it, the tire manufacturer makes a wide block of various random appearance to minimize noise and to create the design is also under strict supervision.
The last reason is that this aspect is related to rolling resistance, which is where the rolling resistance that arises because it is produced from electric cars is 10 percent larger than ordinary cars.
As a solution, electric car tires manufacturers have also increased new compounds for their products with Green Chili 2.0 technology which consumes less energy when changing shape (when rolling) and is able to reduce energy use by 15 percent compared to the previous product.
Tips For Choosing Electric Car Tires
The choice of sturdy tires is an important key for the performance of electric cars. This is due to the presence of a fairly heavy battery in the electric car body like the one we talked about earlier. The reason is, the battery weight alone can reach 40% larger than the usual car components in the selezim. Not to mention the torque in a very large electric car, so it requires strong tires to withstand the acceleration speed.
Due to large and spontaneous torques, electric cars require tires with strong grip to offset them. Therefore, good tires for electric cars, namely those with compounds called Electric Grip Compounds, are hard compounds for the middle so that they can provide optimal grip and handle large torques on electric cars.
The reason is, electric cars are the type of electric vehicles (EVs) that use electricity as their main energy source. If the electric power runs out, then the car needs to be charged to recharge, right? Therefore, you should sort out tires that are specially designed for electric cars because they will definitely affect their energy efficiency.
As we talked about above, it was also because electric cars did not have a noisy or noisy sound due to the absence of internal combustion engine operations like fuel cars.
The last tip to choose good tires for electric cars is to ensure that the tires have a low roll resistance level. Rolling resistance, or in Indonesian, is expressed as a scroll barrier, is a burden that must be borne by cars to turn around. That is, electric car tires must be able to rotate more smoothly and lightly when the car is traveling. At the same time, tires must also have maximum grip power so that the road can be stable.
