The Ventus S1 evo Z is designed to provide a balanced combination of ride comfort and dynamic driving performance for the Panamera. Its asymmetric tread pattern delivers excellent handling and stable grip.

The tread blocks are designed to maintain optimal block stiffness in varying driving conditions, while three main grooves on the inner side improve water drainage on wet roads. The larger proportion of outer tread blocks provides excellent cornering performance and stable grip on dry roads.

The tire also features a dual-carcass structure incorporating aramid hybrid fibers to enhance stability at high speeds. By minimizing tire deformation caused by heat generated during high-speed driving, it maintains stable steering performance. High-strength steel belts and beads, along with a reinforced sidewall structure, provide straight-line stability and precise handling.

The 19- and 20-inch sizes that Hankook Tire has supplied for the Panamera since 2021 will also be available for the new model, with 21-inch sizes newly added, including 275/35 ZR21 tires for the front and 325/30 ZR21 tires for the rear. All sizes feature Porsche's exclusive "ND0" approval mark on the sidewall.

For this supply, Hankook Tire conducted top-speed driving tests at the Nürburgring Nordschleife in Germany to verify the durability of the tire structure and its ability to handle high-performance sports driving.

A Hankook Tire representative said, "In July, we further expanded our partnership by supplying original equipment tires for Porsche's iconic sports car, the 911 Carrera. Since the Macan in 2015, we have supplied original equipment tires for Porsche's major models, including the super-premium SUV Cayenne, the all-electric sports car Taycan, and the high-performance sports roadster 718 Boxster."
