Emerging and evolving modes of transport require elements that are just as state-of-the-art. Tires, literally, carry the weight of service and are becoming specialized to handle autonomous vehicle operations and support the transit industry's fleet electrification transition. Asset management solutions are also being enhanced to help fleet managers better maintain and optimize tire health and safety.Goodyear introduced a non-pneumatic tire (NPT) and wheel assembly to support autonomous vehicle transportation in a city setting at a July 13 event with the Jacksonville Transportation Authority (JTA). JTA will be the first in the industry to host the NPT on its autonomous vehicle fleet where Local Motors' Olli 2.0 will be equipped with the airless tire as part of the Test & Learn Program as the authority continues to plan for its Ultimate Urban Circulator program. |
