EV or standard tyres?

Curiously our 71 plate Niro EV just specs. 94W, it still has the original Michelin Primacy3 on the rears with newer Primacy$s on the front.

Yep, W rated is plenty for most EVs. Because they mostly have relatively low speeds. Even the X Power has got W rated tyres. Because the top speed is "only" 124 mph. In fact going of the chart H rating would in theory do. But definitely make sure they are XL rated.

I think what surprised me was that they are not XL rated or perhaps 98 load rated, the car is a fair bit heavier than the MG4.

S'pose Kia know what they are doing. Hope so anyway.
