Airless Tyres Emerge as Maintenance-Free Alternative in India
Imagine a tyre that doesn't need air like a balloon.
These new 'airless' tyres are like that for cars and bikes!
They have special rubber parts inside that hold their shape instead of needing air.
This means they can't go flat or get a puncture from sharp objects.
They are great for long trips or driving on bumpy roads because you don't have to worry about checking the air or fixing flats.
While they are more expensive right now, people think they will become cheaper as more people start using them.
They look a bit different because you can see their inner structure, but they offer a new kind of tyre safety.
Airless tyres are an emerging innovation in the Indian automotive market.
These tyres function without air, eliminating risks of deflation and punctures.
Their structure relies on rubber spokes and belts for support and control.
Airless tyres are maintenance-free, requiring no air pressure checks or frequent repairs.
Currently, they are significantly more expensive than traditional tubeless tyres, with prices ranging from Rs 10,000 to Rs 20,000 for the most affordable options.
