Peugeot 5008 hybrid Over 25k miles and just about to replace first front tyre pair. Can't comment on mpg performance as no comparison available but happy with lifespan achieved. Good road handling in all conditions not notably noisy either

Good performance and longevity

So brand new Peuoget 3008 Hybrid EV, and these tyres are standard. But at only16,000 miles i've already had to purchase another full set! at just shy of £600 after 18 months of driving, im beyond dissapointed, and out of pocket by 40,000 miles

So dissapointed

Michelin Primacy 4 E 91T XL for electric car - nice tyres. They already make my Renault Zoe feel more satisfying to drive. But note: it is not marked “e.Primacy” or “E.Primacy” but just Primacy with the letter “E” underneath nearer the rim. This is confusing and no doubt is leading to less sales for Michelin.

Tyre marking could be clearer

I drive an electric Golf, which came with Dunlop tyres as original equipment. They lost pressure, wore quickly, were noisy . When it was time to replace them I searched for ev specific tyres and found the e-primacy. Michelin made many claims about this tyre. Carbon neutral at point of fit appealed to me. Low noise, good wet and dry grip, even additional range. Surely an exaggeration? Absolutely not, these tyres have improved my car in so many ways. Quieter, range increased from average 150 miles to 160. Wet and dry grip is excellent. Handling, particularly on bends is noticeably better. A bonus is that the design gives an element of rim protection too. I am delighted with these tyres and recommend them to anyone with an electric vehicle.

This tyre makes a lot of claims.. and lives up to every one
