SpeedMax launched the Energrip tire line, aimed at electric vehicles. This launch marks SpeedMax as the first Brazilian manufacturer to offer tires compatible with the BYD Dolphin Mini.
Energrip for the Dolphin Mini is available in size 175/55 R16 EV and can be found on the PneuStore website, at the main BYD dealerships in the country.
Initially focused on the BYD Dolphin Mini, SpeedMax plans to expand the Energrip line to include sizes 195/60R16 and 205/50R17, serving other BYD vehicles for sale in Brazil.
Due to the additional weight of the batteries and the instantaneous torque of the electric motors, these tires need to be designed to withstand greater pressure.
