12 Mar Goodyear AERO : Tires for Flying Cars
This year at the Geneva International Motor show Goodyear presented their newest prototype called Aero.
It is a two-in-one tire designed for the autonomous, flying cars of the future. The wheel can be used on the road but also can change into a propeller for flying cars.
The tire doesn’t need air – the structure inside the thin tire is non-pneumatic and able to absorb bumps as a typical modern-day tire does
It also uses magnetic force to lift the car smoothly into the air without any friction and is equipped with fiber optic sensors and artificial intelligence.
A major advance for the cars of the future.
