Michelin and General Motors presented a new generation of airless wheel technology, the MICHELIN Uptis Prototype (or “Unique Puncture-proof Tire System”), at the Movin’On Summit for sustainable mobility today. GM intends to develop this airless wheel assembly with Michelin and aims to introduce it on passenger vehicles as early as 2024.Airless technology makes the Uptis Prototype eliminate flats and blowouts. This means Uptis offers significant potential for reducing the use of raw materials and waste, contributing to GM’s vision for a world with zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion as it:Reduces the number of punctured or damaged tires that are scrapped before reaching the end of their life cycle.Reduces the use of raw materials, energy for production and emissions linked to the manufacture of spare tires and replacement tires that are no longer required.Lasts longer by eliminating irregular wear and tear caused by over- or under-inflation.Reduces dangers related to flats and blowouts.
Goodyear offered a sneak peek during the 2018 Geneva International Motor Show of its EfficientGrip Performance with Electric Drive Technology, a prototype tire for the growing electric vehicle market that will be on the road by 2019 in Europe. Goodyear testing reveals that traditional tires can wear out up to 30% faster on electric vehicles due to the powerful, instant torque from electric motors and the additional vehicle weight from heavy battery packs.
Pirelli tires are part of the history of Maserati's grand tourers, from the Biturbo, launched in 1982 and fitted as standard with Cinturato P7, to the GranTurismo Folgore, the 100% electric one that opts for P Zero Elect tires. Traditional GTs are characterized by combining sportiness and comfort, which makes them suitable for both long trips and daily use, with performance and comfort as characteristics that have been consolidated over the years. Today, Pirelli offers custom-developed original equipment for some of the icons of this tradition: P Zero and P Zero Elect for the GranTurismo and GranTurismo Folgore, and a new Cinturato P7 from the Collezione family for classics for the lucky owners. of the legendary Biturbo. All of these covers have been specifically created in collaboration with Maserati, as evidenced by the “MGT” marking on their sides.
