Goodyear Reveal Concept Tyres Developed Specifically for Autonomous Cars

The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company has revealed two innovative new concept tyres at the ongoing 86th Geneva International Motor Show that could literally reshape the future for autonomous cars.

The concepts: the spherical-shaped Eagle-360 – a future-oriented tyre – was designed with key features of manoeuvrability, connectivity and biomimicry for autonomous mobility, while the IntelliGrip, featuring advanced sensor and tread wear technology, is a solution for the earlier adoption of self-driving vehicles.

Both tyres are designed with safety in mind, which according to recent studies, is a key concern among consumers around autonomous vehicles.
