Impeccable ice grip / Arctic Grip Crystals. The microscopic, third-generation grip crystals are mixed in the tread rubber. These crystals work like built-in studs, creating sharp, tough grip edges inside the rubber. As the tire wears down, the crystals emerge and activate the much-needed grip reserve.

Superior grip and handling / The new Double Block Grip design offers superior grip and handling, which can be seen especially on the shoulder areas of the tire. The stiff row of tread blocks starts from the center and is split in two moving towards the shoulder area. Compared to its predecessor, the new Hakkapeliitta R5 EV has an increased amount of tread blocks on the shoulder and intermediate area. This increase means that the contact area has more rubber touching the surface, which results in better grip on slippery surfaces.

Ultimate comfort and silence / The SilentDrive™ Technology pushes driving comfort to the max. An exceptionally low sound level is achieved by adding a layer of acoustic foam on the inner liner of the tire. The acoustic foam absorbs resonance from the tire’s air cavity, resulting in lower noise levels and increased driving comfort.

Safe and green mobility / Hakkapeliitta R5 EV is a durable, comfortable and extremely energy-efficient winter tire. Lighter rolling saves fuel and extends the range of electric vehicles. Due to the lightly rolling tread design and the new, EV-tailored Green Trace compound, the rolling resistance of the Hakkapeliitta R5 EV has been improved even further. The eco-friendly driving features come from ingredients like canola oil, natural rubber, recycled steel, plant-derived oils and pine resin. More than one-third of the new compound consists of renewable and recycled materials.

Patented safety / The patented Winter Safety Indicator (WSI) in the tread further improves safety. It displays the remaining tread in millimeters together with a snowflake symbol. The snowflake remains visible until four millimeters of tread remains. Once the snowflake has worn out, purchasing new winter tires is recommended to help ensure driving stays safe.
