Nothing hurts more than getting the tyre of your vehicle punctured in the middle of a highway. The suffering cannot be described in words. Whether you are using a two-wheeler or a four-wheeler, the punctured or blown-out tyres can actually turn your happy day into endless suffering.

The company named Michelin invented a new design for tyre that would give it puncture-proof and overall safety. The tires will be airless which eventually makes them puncture-proof. Moreover, it will prevent the tires to get blow-outs and it will also increase the life of the tires. Since this new tyre system is airless, this will eliminate the risk of the tyres getting over-inflation or underinflation.

 

What Do The Stats Say?

The project was first introduced back in 2005 however; the execution of the plan was not near at that time. Back in 2014, a new production plant worth $50 Million was introduced just to produce the airless tyres. Currently, the tyres are available for non-passenger vehicles such as farm types of equipment. After satisfactory testing, the airless tyres are expected to hit the market in 2024. As per Michelin, the UPTIS tyres weigh about the same as the standard tyres. Hence, there will be no effect on our comfortable driving.
