iON GT (IK41)
205/65 R16 95H 4PR EV SBL
Hankook - Hankook manufactures premium high-performance tyres for a wide range of vehicle categories from cars to trucks as well as for motorsport. Much of the development and production takes place in Europe for the European market, including original equipment for Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and VW.
2. Ratio of tire height to tire width in%
3. Tire design: 'R' = radial tires (widely used), 'D' or '-' = diagonal tires (rare)
4. Required rim diameter for this tire in inches
5. Key figure for tire load capacity
6. Key figure for the permissible maximum speed (speed index)
7. Motorcycle tire identification, tires only approved for motorcycles
8. DOT labeling
9. Date of manufacture of the tire (week of production / year of production)
PR is an abbreviation of "ply rating". This label originally indicated the number of layers of cotton fishing line in the shell. A large number of bearings means a higher load capacity. When stronger materials were introduced for bearings, this term was removed from the actual number of bearings. Currently, a tire with 8 PR can only have four nylon linear bearings. Today, the stability of a controlled tire is expressed in terms of load capacity and speed capacity, and not in terms of the ply rating.
The efficiency class label evaluated based on customer preferences.
Delticom centralized survey results from more than 40.000 customers from 15 European countries and created this index.

Triple the Advantage
Thanks to Hankook's iON INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY, the iON GT has pushed the limits to bridge the gaps between grip performance, noise, and tread wear.
Maximised Sustainability
Sustainable Materials for Tyres
Even Tread Wear
Round Even
Tyres equipped on electric vehicles wear out approximately 20% faster with uneven wear than on ICE vehicles. The iON GT achieves uniform contact pressure by optimising contact structure through Round Even Technology. The iON GT provides longer usage and less frequent replacement.
Extended Tread Life
Opti Tread
Abnormal wear prevented by optimising individual pattern block stiffness.
New Profile for Wear
New profile is applied for wear by increasing contact width. New pattern is applied with optimised contact ratio.
Further Reduced Rolling Resistance
Opti Cure Technology
The iON GT achieved the highest grade of LRR performance by applying Opti Cure Technology which improves all parts of the tyre equally.
Power Reserve
Optimised tyre gauge with advanced structure design.
Noise Guard (Cornhusk patent technology)
Realising tyre noise reduction through patterns, structure and tests. The corn husk surface structure with superior acoustic performance applied to the grooves to disperse noise.
Minimised Tread Pattern Noise
Opti Pitch Technology
Tyre noise can be drastically reduced by optimising the pitch sequence. The iON GT has optimised the number and size of pitches to listen more to what matters.
ProGrip Compound
Achieved higher wet surface grip by combining high-density silica with innovative eco-friendly materials.
Enhanced Cornering Stability
Grip Boost Technology
It is essential to improve tyre stiffness to bear the weight of electric vehicles. Grip Boost Technology increases cornering stiffness by 10% to improve the electric vehicle’s handling performance.
Improved Steering at High Speeds
Aramid Hybrid Reinforcement Belt
A reinforcement belt mixed with the most advanced fibre, Aramid, is applied on the iON GT to improve steering performance and maintain an optimised shape during highspeed driving.
EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes
The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher.

* when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note:
Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).*

Please note:
Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A
The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016.
B
The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016.
C
The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.
