Hyundai and Michelin
A successful long-term partnership for performance and innovation
Hyundai is a worldwide actor with a global footprint. At Hyundai, they aim to become a company cherished for realizing humanity’s dream of safe and free movement and a peaceful life. It's no coincidence that Hyundai and Michelin Teams are working closely together for a better life in motion.
In 2022, Hyundai and Michelin announced the signing of a partnership to develop next-generation tyres optimized for premium electric vehicles:
In 2017, Hyundai Motor & Michelin signed a first partnership agreement to optimize the performance of EV and luxury vehicles. This led to the development of exclusive Hyundai Ioniq5 tyres. The Hyundai Ioniq 5, 2022 world car of the year, world electric vehicle of the year and world car design of the year, is fitted with exclusively co-developped MICHELIN tyres.
MICHELIN tyres offer a high level of performance, handling, braking, long tyre tread life, and low rolling resistance despite the demanding high torque transmission and high-performance electric vehicles.
MICHELIN develops HN marked tyres for Hyundai N specific car models and GOE marked tyres (also fitted on luxuary Genesis car models from Hyundai Motor Group).
HN & GOE marked MICHELIN tyres are designed specifically by Michelin engineers in close collaboration with Hyundai and Genesis. When it comes to developing tyres, we use our expertise to select the best technologies and materials as a function of the individual characteristics of each car model, thereby ensuring the best performance and a truly unique driving experience!
Only HN & GOE marked tyres give you full assurance that you are buying a tyre specially designed and tested for your Hyundai.

Internal noise caused by the tyres is a major concern with noiseless engines of EVs.
The sound damping effect is obtained through a custom designed polyurethane foam solution exceptionally applied to the tyre interior after curing. The polyurethane foam mufles noise resonance inside the tire cavity. Thanks to MICHELIN AcousticTM technology, the internal noise of the vehicle can be reduced by nearly 20%.(1)

(1) MICHELIN Acoustic Technology reduces the perceived noise level, inside the car, by nearly 20% (Internal noise measurement, done in 2020 on size 245/45 R19 on KIA Cadenza. Noise level measured on the range "170-230Hz".) Results may vary according to vehicle, tyre range and size, speed and road conditions.
