Recently, at the Consumer Electronics Show in the United States, Hankook Tire displayed an airless tire.

The tire, called i-Flex, has the characteristics of high safety, low maintenance cost and environmental protection.

According to reports, Hankook has been developing non-pneumatic tire technology since 2010.

In addition to i-Flex, airless tires developed by Michelin also appeared at the exhibition.

The Tweels tires developed by the company are not only not afraid of punctures, but also have high stability.

In addition, the advantages of this tire include low rolling resistance, easy replacement, and high load-carrying capacity.

Tire World Network observed that airless tires are becoming a hot area of tire research and development.

In early January, American Goodyear announced the design of airless tires for the Starship robot.

Starship designers revealed that the first consideration for robot tires is the service life.

Wear-resistant and stable tires are essential for the robotics industry.

Toyo Tire's research on airless tires focuses on golf carts.

At the end of last year, the Noair concept tire developed by the company was installed on the road for the first time.

They plan to roll out airless tires to electric vehicles, but still need to prove their reliability.

Currently, only Michelin is the only developer that has announced the promotion of airless tires on cars.

The tire giant is working with General Motors and expects to launch related products by 2024.
