You can reach them at 925-552-9598. For those unfamiliar, tie rods are a super important part of your car’s steering. They connect the steering rack to the wheels, basically translating your turning the wheel into actually turning the car. They're a relatively simple piece, but if they're weak or worn out, it can cause all sorts of problems – wobbly steering, uneven tire wear, and even a loss of control. And with EVs, things get a little more complicated. Why EVs Need Better Tie Rods Electric vehicles aren’t just gas cars with a battery swap. They’re fundamentally different in how they're built and how they perform. EVs are generally heavier than comparable gas vehicles – all those batteries add weight. That extra weight puts a lot more stress on steering components like tie rods. Plus, EVs often deliver instant torque. That means a quick, powerful steering response is crucial, and the tie rods need to be up to the task. Cheap or poorly designed tie rods just won't cut it. “We saw a gap in the market for tie rods built specifically for electric vehicles,” explains a spokesperson for ICON EV. “Standard tie rods are often designed with gas-powered cars in mind. They just don’t hold up to the weight, torque, and driving characteristics of EVs. We decided to build something better – something that would provide drivers with superior handling, safety, and longevity.” ICON EV’s Tie Rods: Engineered for Excellence ICON EV’s tie rods aren't just tweaked versions of existing designs; they’ve been completely re-engineered from the ground up. Here’s a closer look at what sets them apart: High-Strength Materials: ICON EV uses only premium-grade, high-strength alloy steel in the construction of their tie rods. This means they’re way more durable and resistant to bending or breaking under heavy loads. Forget about flimsy parts – these are built to last. Optimized Geometry: The geometry of ICON EV’s tie rods has been carefully optimized using advanced computer modeling and real-world testing. This ensures precise steering response, minimal steering play, and improved handling characteristics. What does that mean for you? A tighter, more controlled driving experience. Enhanced Durability: EVs often experience regenerative braking, which puts unusual stresses on suspension and steering components. ICON EV’s tie rods are designed to withstand these unique forces, extending their lifespan and reducing the need for frequent replacements. Precise Manufacturing: ICON EV utilizes state-of-the-art manufacturing processes to ensure that every tie rod meets the strictest quality standards. This includes tight tolerances, rigorous testing, and a commitment to continuous improvement. Corrosion Resistance: Let’s face it, cars get exposed to all kinds of nasty stuff on the road – salt, water, grime. ICON EV’s tie rods feature a protective coating that resists corrosion, preventing rust and ensuring long-lasting performance. Multiple Sizes & Configurations: ICON EV understands that not all EVs are created equal. They offer a wide range of tie rod sizes and configurations to fit a variety of electric vehicle models. Beyond Just Parts: ICON EV’s Commitment to Innovation ICON EV isn’t just a manufacturer; they’re a team of engineers and automotive enthusiasts dedicated to pushing the boundaries of EV technology. They work closely with EV manufacturers and aftermarket suppliers to develop innovative solutions that improve the performance, safety, and reliability of electric vehicles. “We’re not content with just making parts; we want to make a difference,” says the spokesperson. “We believe that electric vehicles have the potential to revolutionize transportation, and we’re committed to providing the components that will help them reach their full potential.” What Does This Mean for EV Owners? If you own an electric vehicle, upgrading to ICON EV’s tie rods can offer several benefits: Improved Handling: Experience tighter, more responsive steering for a more enjoyable driving experience. Increased Safety: Benefit from more predictable and reliable steering performance, especially in critical situations. Extended Lifespan: Reduce the need for frequent tie rod replacements, saving you time and money. Peace of Mind: Know that your steering components are built to withstand the unique demands of electric vehicle ownership. Looking Ahead ICON EV is committed to continuing to innovate and develop new solutions for the electric vehicle market. They are currently working on several new products, including adjustable tie rod ends and heavy-duty ball joints, all designed to enhance the performance and reliability of electric vehicles.
