Michelin, at the forefront of electric mobility
Since its beginnings, Michelin has innovated for a better life in motion, developing solutions to accompany the major developments of the mobility industry. The sector’s profound transformation as it now transitions towards electric vehicles is no exception.
Because of their battery, electric vehicles are heavier than their internal combustion counterparts, and yet boast faster initial acceleration. These specificities, coupled with
the constant quest for greater battery range, all contribute to make EVs particularly
demanding on tires.
Michelin has been developing solutions specifically adapted to these new requirements, allowing electric car owners to enjoy an unparalleled driving experience. So it is no coincidence that Michelin equips more than 8 out of 10 electric vehicle manufacturers in Canada.*
An airless tire to equip the future lunar vehicle

Michelin is actively engaged in the energy transition
Its’ “All Sustainable” strategy is perfectly in line with environmental issues, notably by proposing tires capable of meeting the specific needs of all electric vehicles: cars, bikes, motorbikes, heavy goods vehicles, buses…
Let's see how.
