Key Features:
•All-Season UHP Performance
Formulated for confident, high-performance driving in dry, wet and light snow conditions.
•Narrow-to-Wide Groove Geometry
Improves hydroplaning resistance and delivers superior wet traction with balanced handling.
•Wet Traction
3D siping technology enhances wet and snow performance.
•UTQG Rating
540 AA A, offering an improved balance of treadwear, traction, and temperature resistance.
•Expanded Size Offering
10 new sizes (vs. previous model) covering modern fitments for sports cars and performance CUV/SUVs.
•Warranty Coverage
Backed by a 50,000-mile limited treadwear warranty (25K if front/rear staggered sizes.
•Asymmetric tread design features stiff outer ribs and shoulder for crisp handling and more flexible inner ribs and shoulder for wet and winter traction.
•Narrow to wide grooves achieve better handling with hydro-planing resistance and outstanding wet traction.
•Multi-pitch tread pattern to minimize on-road noise.
•Computer optimized footprint shape for excellent traction, steering response, and wear.
•3D sipes for improved performance in wet & snowy conditions as well as tread block rigidity.

The VEZDA UHP A/S2-EV is Kenda’s new ultra high-performance all-season tire for Electric Vehicles (EV). This next-generation, ultra high-performance all-season tire combines the performance benefits of the VEZDA UHP A/S2 with the needs of today’s most popular EVs.
