While winter tires are of vital importance in countries with cold weather conditions such as Turkey, an innovative move by Hyundai continues to revitalize the sector. The company has developed a tire technology that is still in the concept stage. This technology features a snow chain integrated into the tire.
Hyundai concept winter tire becomes instantly active
This unique winter tire from Hyundai contains special cavities that house iron parts at its six points. In normal winter conditions, these iron fragments move into the tire. When the driver presses a simple button from inside the vehicle, the iron pieces come out and instantly form a chain. This innovative system offers drivers a safer driving experience by increasing the traction of the tires.
Although this winter tire, which is still in the concept phase, is uncertain whether it will be released in the future, it seems inevitable that such a technology will attract interest from drivers. For vehicle users, the idea of activating the snow chains by simply pressing a button while sitting in a warm cabin stands out as a very attractive and user-friendly feature. This innovation could offer a practical solution for drivers who do not want to change tires or install chains in icy weather.
