Sorry, no. Modern EV tires are quite difficult to make which might explain why the roll out of sizes is slow and limited. Also limited demand might be a factor. Luckily there are plenty of 'EV Ready' winter tires with low rolling resistance.

Bought iCept SUVs for my Mazda CX-70. Decent road noise, probably around the same as the stock all-seasons. Icy conditions aren't great but better than all's and not as good as the X-Ice on my other vehicle. Road ride feels like they don't give much. $120 less per tire than premiums like X-Ice, and has better longevity according to different comparison websites. That longevity means a tougher rubber-like compound and less flex to grip onto ice.
