A new J.D. Power survey shows that while new-car owners are pretty satisfied with the tires that come as original equipment, EV owners are less so.
When you're shopping for a new car, you take a wide range of features and equipment into consideration before making your final decision. But one factor that's probably not a deal-breaker is what tires the car is wearing. If you think about them at all, you might figure that you'll live with them until they need replacing and then buy the exact tires you want.
“The widening satisfaction gap between EVs and gas-powered vehicles highlight an opportunity for tire manufacturers and automakers to educate EV owners on the differences in performance,” said Ashley Edgar, a senior director at J.D. Power.
The study also broke down results by vehicle category: passenger car, luxury car, sport/utility, and performance/sport. The study surveyed 31,414 owners of 2022 and 2023 model-year vehicles.
