STØYDEMPING AV ELBIL

REDUCING ELECTRIC VEHICLE NOISE CAN BE ACHIEVED THROUGH UPGRADES TO MORE QUIET WHEELS, AND ADDING NOISE-DAMPENING INSULATION BEHIND THE INNER FENDERS
Soundproofing fenders and chassis is costly and does not reduce the source of the noise.
The greatest effect is achieved by using tires that emit as little noise as possible on coarse asphalt. Summer tires with a soft tire casing and medium-hard summer rubber provide the lowest measurement results on a Tesla Model Y. Not the EU value that is measured outside the car on the roadside.

FORD MUSTANG MACH-E WINTER WHEELS, WINTER TIRES AND WHEEL

WINTER WHEEL WEIGHT AND DRAINAGE HAVE A REAL BEARING ON THE RANGE OF THE CAR
The Ford Mustang Mach-E comes with winter and summer wheels of varying dimensions, and as expected, the car’s range is published using the most lightweight wheels, driven under laboratory road conditions. As such, it’s important to choose the lightest possible winter wheels, as well as winter tires with the best possible water drainage to reduce the risk of aquaplaning on the front wheels when driving on wet roads. If you google wheel weight vs horsepower, you’ll see plenty of results showing articles describing how important wheel weight/rotary mass is for the energy consumption of both electric and standard cars. Click on the picture below to look through the articles (put aside a little extra time).

TESLA MODEL Y WHEELS AND WINTER TIRES

LIGHTWEIGHT WHEELS REVOLUTIONISE THE TESLA MODEL Y, WITH FRIGUS EV ICE 3 TIRES BOOSTING THE CAR’S RANGE

TESLA STATES 32 KM RANGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 19 AND 20 INCH WHEELS
Tesla states that the difference in range between original 19'' and 20'' wheels is approx. 32 km, and the weight difference is approx. 1 kg/wheel, i.e. 4 kilograms in total. It shows the difference in energy consumption when a rim is both heavier and the rim ring is slightly longer in radius.

TESLA MODEL 3 AND 3P WITH ZAX WHEELS IMPROVES RANGE, ACCELERATION AND SMOOTH DRIVER COMPARED TO OE

TESLA MODEL 3 AND 3 PERFORMANCE WINTER WHEELS

TESLA MODEL 3 CAN EXTEND THE WINTER RANGE WITH WINTER TIRES THAT HAVE GOOD DRAINAGE AGAINST WATER PLANNING
Tesla 3 is a leader in range, but cold days combined with water in the roadway greatly reduce range. The new electric car tire FIRGUS EV ICE 3 works excellently on ice and snow, but still has full drainage against aquaplaning. Good continuous drainage reduces the water wave that builds up in front of traditional winter tires. Such a water wave also requires a lot of extra energy, so it is not abnormal with 10% lower energy consumption on FRIGUS EV ICE 3 compared to competitors on wet roads.
