• Falken AZENIS FK520 (NG0) tyre package approved for factory-fit on new Porsche Cayenne Electric

• Developed to support Cayenne Electric’s performance capabilities

• Optimised rubber compound and staggered tyre set-up contributes to on-road handling, electric performance and rolling efficiency

Falken has engineered a custom version of its AZENIS FK520 (NG0) tyre for factory-fit on the all-new Porsche Cayenne Electric. The new Original Equipment (OE) tyre further strengthens FALKEN’s long-term collaboration with Porsche in the high-performance segment.

Developed, approved and homologated with Porsche for factory-fit

The specially engineered FALKEN AZENIS FK520 tyre package bears the ‘NG0’ designation, reserved only for tyres that have been developed, homologated and approved specifically to meet Porsche's exact requirements.

The Porsche Cayenne Electric is fitted with 255/55 R20 110Y XL tyres on the front axle and 305/45 R20 116Y XL tyres on the rear axle. The FALKEN AZENIS FK520 (NG0) is available in combination with selected wheel designs offered through Porsche’s vehicle configurator.

Engineered specifically for high-performance Porsche Cayenne Electric

The new FALKEN AZENIS FK520 (NG0) has been specifically tailored to meet the demands of Porsche’s new all-electric performance SUV. The staggered tyre set-up supports the characteristic chassis tuning of the Porsche Cayenne Electric and is designed to deliver a balanced combination of agility, traction and driving stability. The FALKEN AZENIS FK520 developed for the Porsche Cayenne Electric is an Ultra High Performance (UHP) tyre, created for sporting road vehicles.

The tyre package has been further refined to address a range of specific requirements. It features an optimised rubber compound designed to reduce rolling resistance, which may have a positive effect on vehicle range depending on driving conditions. The tyre is also engineered to support precise steering response and stable high-speed performance. Carrying a Y speed rating, the FALKEN AZENIS FK520 (NG0) is approved for speeds of up to 300 km/h.

In addition, the FALKEN AZENIS FK520 (NG0), developed specifically for the Porsche Cayenne Electric, is designed to contribute to strong traction and efficient torque transfer. In performance SUVs that combine substantial power with significant vehicle weight, the tailored tyre architecture can help enhance overall performance and efficiency. Ideal for owners who typically enjoy exploring more of the performance capabilities of their cars and placing greater demands on their vehicles’ tyres.

Christian Stolting, OE Sales Director at Dunlop Tyre Europe GmbH, home to the FALKEN tyre brand, said: "With the AZENIS FK520 (NG0), FALKEN underlines its expertise in developing innovative tyre technologies for the next generation of premium electric vehicles. This is the latest development in our long-term partnership with Porsche, and means we continue to strategically positioning ourselves as the first choice in the high-performance battery-electric SUV segment."

A long-term partnership between FALKEN and Porsche, on road and track

Since 2011, FALKEN has successfully competed in motorsport with racing tyres fitted to a Porsche 911 GT3 R in the ADAC RAVENOL Nürburgring Endurance Series (NLS) and at the Nürburgring 24 Hours. With its distinctive blue-and-green livery, the FALKEN Porsche is an established and recognisable part of the motorsport scene.

Away from the circuit, FALKEN and Porsche have previously worked together to develop other tyres, including OE approval for FALKEN AZENIS FK510A SUV tyres on the Porsche Macan since 2018

FALKEN tyres are developed and manufactured to defined quality standards. As a reflection of this commitment to quality, Falken offers a five-year warranty on all tyres factory-fitted to vehicles or sold by authorised FALKEN partners, subject to the applicable FALKEN warranty terms and conditions.
