The Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 tire earned the new ice grip symbol as a way for drivers to identify winter tires designed to deliver superior performance braking on ice. Learn more >
Specifically engineered to suit the unique needs of electric vehicles.
The Hakkapeliitta R5 is an EV winter tire that delivers uncompromised grip—plus pure silence and eco-friendliness. The Hakkapeliitta R5 EV has earned the new ice grip symbol to help drivers identify winter tires designed for superior ice braking. In our independent tire testing, the R5 EV earned the highest mark for snow and dry braking, and top-tier marks for snow cornering and hydroplaning resistance. The SilentDrive Technology pushes driving comfort to the max.
What gives this EV winter tire such impeccable ice grip? Arctic Grip Crystals are mixed in the tread rubber to act like studs while a new Double Block Grip design adds more tread blocks on the shoulder for superior handling on slippery surfaces.

Kal's Test Results
? Independent & Objective Testing
? Summer vs Winter Tests
BRAKING
We varied our approach speeds by driving surface and by season for two reasons. First, this represents how most Canadians would normally drive on that surface in each season. Second, testing in both seasons provides an indication of how a tire's performance will be affected by road temperature.
CORNERING
To understand how road surface temperatures affect the cornering performance of a tire, our cornering tests are completed in both summer conditions (dry and wet pavement) and winter conditions (dry, wet and icy pavement).
? Independent & Objective Testing
The independent tire testers conducted extensive tests to determine how the tires in our core line-up perform in a range of conditions in both summer and winter. To maintain neutrality, no driver knew the specifics of the tires they were testing each time. All results were analyzed and processed by the testing group and then provided to Kal Tire for sharing with our customers.
