Michelin Airless Tire UPTIS - Unique Puncture-Proof Tire System
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 июл 2019
- These new airless tires, will never need to be inflated or the air pressure maintained, and you will never get a flat tyre from running over a nail.
MICHELIN Uptis (Unique Puncture-Proof Tire System) is an airless mobility solution for passenger vehicles, which eliminates the dangerous risk of flat tires and blowouts that result from punctures or road hazards.
Uptis features ground-breaking improvements in architecture and composite materials, which enable Uptis to bear the car’s weight at road-going speeds. These innovations combine to eliminate compressed air to support the vehicle’s load, and result in extraordinary environmental savings: approximately 200 million tires worldwide are scrapped prematurely every year as a result of punctures, damage from road hazards or improper air pressure that causes uneven wear
The Uptis Prototype represents a major advancement toward achieving Michelin’s VISION concept, which was presented at the Movin’On Summit in 2017 as an illustration of Michelin’s strategy for research and development in sustainable mobility.
The VISION concept introduced four main pillars of innovation: airless, connected, 3D-printed and 100% sustainable (entirely renewable or bio-sourced materials).
Thanks for watching.

★★★ *FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE VIDEO / FACT UPDATES* ★★★
*1) Tire or Tyre, which is the correct spelling?* - Tire and Tyre both mean a covering for a wheel, usually made of rubber. Tire is the preferred spelling in the U.S. and Canada. Tyre is preferred in most varieties of English outside North America. Of course, all English speakers use tire in the sense to grow weary. (in Australia, we spell it Tyre)
*The following if from the Michelin website for this Tire / Tyre* - "The MICHELIN® Uptis (Unique Puncture-Proof *Tire* System) is an airless mobility solution for passenger vehicles, which reduces the risk of flat tires and other air loss failures that result from punctures or road hazards."
*2) why do we need to wait until 2024 before they are available?* - I do not have an answer for this question from any official FAQ page from Michelin, but I would assume because they are a high consumable used on every car under so many kinds of conditions, high acceleration, hard braking, high speed cornering, cold weather, hot weather, snow, mud, ice, rocks etc. and because people are putting their lives on the line with these tyres, that like a new drug, extensive testing, redesign and further testing will need to be done, to get the perfect design, that can handle all conditions, and still perform like a normal tyre and last just as long.
*3) How much will they cost?* - These tyres are still in-development and will be not be available to the public until 2024, so ask me again then. But if you search for "Michelin Tweel Kit" (UPTIS tyres for forklifts & UTV) the prices start at *$847.00 per wheel.*
*4) what if you get mud or snow, in the tyre* - Here are 2 video links on the Michelin website showing just that
*Mud in Tyre* - michelinmedia.com/site/user/files/44/MNA342_Uptis_Mud_Clips-proxy_2.mp4
*Snow / ICE in Tyre* - michelinmedia.com/site/user/files/44/MNA342_Uptis_Snow_Clip-proxy_2.mp4
*5) A lot of you ask, can you drift or do burnouts with these tyres* - Tyre companies make a range of tyres to suit all needs and vehicles, Michelin states in a FACT SHEET these tyres are being designed for Autonomous & Electric passenger vehicles. Which says to me, being used in a sensible manor at sensible speeds.
*6) Most of you keep asking "What If" question, what if you get mud, snow, water in the wheel? Can you drift on them? How is the cornering?* - The tyres are still in development and won't be available for 4 years, so there is no way to answer any of those question until then.
*7) Why even mention the Police Spike Strips in the video it should not matter* - You are right it does not matter, it was just a joke reference, when i saw these tyres I thought "oh what about Police spike strips, how will they stop fleeing cars" so i added that into the video, but it had no baring on the tyres development. So many people have linked videos in the comments, showing alternatives, and i will even be doing a follow up video about these tyres and the Police alternatives to stopping cars in the future.

After 2024 they come to market.
@@evrytan Honeslty? because i am interested in learning more. can you post anything else about these tires?
@@jasonpatrickseverance9660 no they're making them already Michelin has already started doing ads
This tire design has always struggled with high speeds. This is why you see them on slower moving vehicles, such as tractors, mowers, forklifts, "military vehicles," etc. but not on cars. 80 MPH is a daunting task for these.
I guess so, new designs will come up eventually. I kind of have an idea, maybe try a "tension string" that attaches to the wheel and the rubber tire so it could handle high speeds. I guess.
Urg just make a normal tire but with this. Works like normal and is flat free
@Blank It doesn't slow the car per se. The tire itself does not cope well at high speeds. The pressures put on the tire at speed will deform the tire, possibly catastrophically so.
@@sylvarnuovis7240 Having a sidewall on a tire like this would likely lead to uneven wear on the outer edges as they would not compress as easily as the more central part of the tire.
@Blank the tire can fail and rip itself apart, same thing can happen to normal tires at super high speeds. That why Bugatti set an electronic speed limiter on one of their cars (i forget which one it was) so that the tires would not explode.
Taking pebbles out of tire tread just went to a whole new level
They will probably close the sides
@@rc_teo_nade_216 I think that the sides need to be open for the air flow.
I am interested to see what the braking distance is like.
Very little in my opinion.
Heard of disc in disc brakes?
@@andrewsanchez8716 the thing is with tires like these you also stop faster. There’s less weight on the car since the rims are taken from the equation. Also since there’s no tread you can brake much better in rain since the air under the tire is also removed then hydroplaning is very much reduced chance from happening. As for braking, since the tires are flat, braking would have the tire have more surface area on the ground meaning, less distance to stop. Of course brakes are very important, one won’t work without the other so while brakes haven’t changed, tires have. And with that the tire also helps stop the car now.
@@damianpizana5473 did you not watch the video they still have rims and the tread pattern is the same as any other tire it says in the video. Also they make about the same contact with the road as a normal tire at slow speeds
@@andrewsanchez8716 what hes saying is that momentum is based on speed and weight so if this tire is lighter on the outer edge, it will stop quicker. Less weight on the outer edge of the spinning wheel means less momentum that you have to get rid of during braking.
edit: also the tire is noticeably flatter so that would mean more tire surface on the ground at all times so better braking and acceleration
To say we shouldn’t use airless tires because criminals cant have their tires popped was a new level of mental gymnastics for me
I agree haha... I'm glad he said he the advantages outweigh that tho
I mean, they would just transition to actual blades instead of spikes.
@@golfer435 grappler, and its way safer than spike strips
just punch them with the car until explode

This tires are used for excavators for a good reason: They are useless at higher speeds and the gasoline you need is tremendous as they have much more friction than a usual tyre.

Right.. I remember watching this on Discovery channel when I was a kid.
We could've and should've been using airless tires years ago!
JOHN DAVIS not in snow or mud climates/circumstances. Any debris inside the tires would cause possible catastrophic shake or failure at highway speeds. They’d have to be cleaned constantly. This is a 40 year old idea that keeps getting press every decade
They've been testing this for like 10 years now it used to be called tweel
@@joesmith389 tyres could be covered from sides.
Joe Smith like the sidewalls HAVE to be open ? .. they could just make a type of vent in the sidewall near the bead
@Sushil Kumar it's not that easy.
if you created rubber sidewalls, when it does get punctured, it would let debris and water in which would unbalance the tire.
can't take joy of drifting with these tyres
Michelin: it will take 5 years to release these
Tesla: we plan to have a full public release in 3 months
Tesla: When your Tesla catch on fire, your tires will burn more evenly.
Makes perfect since slow down the process so cops can figure out a spike strip solution. And then we all end up with hover flying cars before the tires are released lmao
Probably thats what is going to happen.
I see a high speed pothole destroying a rim totally.. the way the tire comppresses in just the small pothole seems like a devistating impact on a rim for anything bigger going 40plus mph
that also happens to conventional air tires though.
@@jesseflores9087 yes but it is far less of a problem on conventional tires.
Did u even watch the whole video
Quite sure there is a comprehensive testing strategy, after working in QC for VW group the standards are just ridiculous.... good concept tho, I’d buy a set

Criminals chasing is not at all a concern for the "rest of the world"
TRUE, *ESPECIALLY INDIA* I GUESS!
The grappler bumper is already in use by US Police, which in my opinion ends a chase in a much safer way than spikes.
Criminals fleeing by car happens all over the world, though. Don't understand your point.
That bit literally ruined the video... I mean, really mate? Do they actually think that JUST spike traps would be a concern to release a new kind of tire that can actually prevent accidents, etc.
Also couldn't they find more spike trap videos online? They are lazy enough to use GTAV instead.
Literally my thought, the most American problem you could come up with.
"BuT hOw WiLl PoLi-"
Shaddup. They have more than spike strips to stop vehicles. Like hellfire missiles from a drone. :)

There is actually a type of spike strip they use that has a net attached. When embedded in the wheel, the net wraps around the spindle or drive shaft, causing lock up. No need for releasing the air, and works on all types of tires.
1. That isn't a spike strip since it has no spikes
2. You need to be directly behind the car for it to work
3. pretty ineffective on front wheel and 4 wheel drive
4. You need to use a truck of some sort
5. It puts the pursuer and all others in danger
I imagine rocks, mud, and debris can get stuck within the ribs. Wonder how that would impact the tires’ performance.
The tires are flexible, they will just shoot out once the car drives. Tanks dont have this issue so why should this?
Nothing a pressure washer can’t fix
@@FlyLeah Mud sure, but if a rock gets in there it -might- get stuck between the rubber spokes. It's definetly a good idea to get this on the commercial market, but i can imagine a few problems with it.
@@jesperstoringgaard8367 what impact would a rock have on these tires? you’re thinking too small. At the worst, it’d be lodged. Because they’re accessible, it could be pushed out. There are numerous benefits to this technology.
Just add a side wall maybe?
They need to show it's performance in mud and snow.
I would be curious about heavy snow and ice. Park your car outside at night, come out the next morning and water is now frozen to the bottomed, sides, and inside the tire. If you attempt to move your car, do the rubber vanes rip inside of the tire before it dislodges itself from the icy crap?
Put elastic covers on both sides of open tire🤟
@bax 60 haha..yeah..I don't think he thought this one through.
Also I wonder if cold weather over a long period of time would make them brittle

Ehh, by the time this is mainstream enough for police to be worried about how to stop a car in a chase the cars (most of them anyway) will already have remote functions allowing the police to remotely slow and then stop a vehicle.

I first heard about these over ten years ago and they were referred to as "Tweels" but even back then they were limited and couldn't hit a speed over 45MPH. I do gotta say, if they can get performance speed tires (higher than an H rating) then we'll be in good shape but I hope to goodness they put a sidewall on them. They look ugly as side with the spokes exposed...that and road debris could get inside and potentially damage the insides.

Genius. You, sir, deserve an award.
till somebody rides trough it with a bicycle or a bike
Don’t be the asshole that ruins this idea.
you mean something like those wristbands that you slap on your wrist that curl when you do so?
I was actually thinking a more elevated ledge that when driven over, gets into the gap between the tire and the fender, causing more friction. My idea is more inefficient then yours tho because the cars model and size will depend if it works or not.
This is actually good for the environment.
As a mechanic irregular wear on tyres is generally caused by a fault in the tracking of the steering toeing in or out causing the tyres to feather on the edges however vehicle maintenance also has a lot to do with wear on tyres a big one being tyre pressure, under inflated tyres will tend to wear on the outside of the tyre where as over inflated tyres will wear on the centre of the tread.
As a regard to law enforcement stopping vehicles in a pursuit situation there are two other options to replace spike strips.
The first being a a mechanism that that lifts the front of the car up via a set of metal rods on pistons however has very limited use. The second being a spike net which is essentially a large Kevlar blanket net covered in spikes that wraps around the front tyres and tangles the front axle immobilising the vehicle bringing it to a stop.
Ten years later..
We still can't use them.

I literally thought of making a tire just like this when i was 5 years old and i was mad cuz i knew i couldn't make my tire dreams become a reality before anyone else had the chance
The last line the most important. Millions of people will benefit, can't denied them just because of a few miscreants
Like guns for example.
This guy was really reaching with that anyways, I've seen probably hundreds car chases and most of them end with pit maneuvers, crashes, the suspect bailing out on foot, and occasionally running out of gas. I've rarely even seen police even deploy spikes and I've NEVER seen it actually work effectively. Besides you can already buy run flats tires that are good for 50 miles after a puncture.
I wonder what effect this will have on air resistance
This was my idea! When I was a kid!
The only problem with these are that you can’t reduce air pressure when going on sand
no need the sand would gather inside the tires giving you extra speed and less chance you'll get stuck
@@HumorDash speed isn't what keeps you from being stuck in sand, tyre "footprint" is what does.
@@HartyBiker I think you missed the joke bro…
@@HartyBiker what I tried to say was that the footprint is probably good enough to keep you going.
Actually the problem with these tyres is they are super loud (they make a high pitch noise) because of air passing through them
gouvernement be like: nice, we won't have to renovate the road
edit: sorry if you guys are offended by the fact that I didn't write government, my keyboard has automatic french correction so that's why it became "gouvernement"
Youre smart
Hermosaaa 😊
They also wouldn't be able to use spike strips
They dont anyway, private companies on contract do. At least here im the states
How can they corrupt public funs then?.
This would be so beneficial for heavy duty vehicles as their tire punctures can be extremely damaging for the vehicles and in some cases - lethal to some unlucky bystanders as it was documented in the past.
Bus chassis, for example, has to have some arch reinforcements so the tire puncture wouldn't damage the interior or the passengers and sadly upon puncture you can pretty much say bye bye to the equipment that is fixed near the wheel (sensors, pneumatics, etc.)
The spring momentum of the inner tire that bounces back and that it when contacted on the surface space on that the comfort on it?
this wouldn’t work for cars that park outside in the winter, water could get in there and freeze.
ofcourse it works the ice just brakaes ones you are driving
I'm pretty sure they'll add a sidewall
That's y is stay away from snowy places
That’s why I’m not in Alaska
if you start driving ice will sqeeze out
I can imagine pebbles getting stuck inside.
But they can be cleaned out easily I think.
its an early design to show whats inside. the final product probably will be closed entirely just like a normal tires
@@zedboiii My thoughts exactly..
@@zedboiii no doubt
But it’s the same tech you can find in sneakers. They solved that by covering it with transparent rubber. They probably have thought of it.
The Michelin airless tire is an ideal ready-to-use spare tire in places far from repair shops.
yayyy thanks for telling me!!!
Nice coverage, I read about these earlier this year or even quite recently. I can't wait to see these perfected enough to hit the roads here in the USA. Thanks Wonder World, great info
I bet they'll be expensive as hell for a few years until they really get production going. It'll be pretty cool to be able to change tires when they go bald instead of when they get a nail through the sidewall
They are not practical. You know nothing about tires.
Keep the good work going man!!
In the end of the day everybody that likes fast and mascular cars hate that they get more quiet or that they lose the old strong supercharged engines but really nobody is against new or futuristic tires and btw when it comes to looking they are a 10/10
Nice one !
*they aren’t available because they make too much money ripping people off with regular tires*
Exactly. Not to mention they could make new tires from recycled tires and just dont because its more cost effective for them to make new ones and just fill landfills with rubber... Theyve had the technology for full electric cars and airless tires for decades but it doesnt make them and the powers that be as much money
Nom De Plume you understand that it’s fossil fuels that power electric cars right?
E36 420 How? These tires will still wear out and you will still have to buy new ones, when you get a flat you can usually just patch them up. The ones that won’t like these tires are tire repair shops, not tire sellers.
I work at the Goodyear Tire plant in lawton, which is currently the largest tire plant in the world (almost a mile long). If we could manufacture this tire efficiently, than we would. The issue is that by producing that tire, we would need to replace all our tire machines, which would essentially drive the price of that new tire threw the roof. If you dont think companies want to produce something like this, than it would destroy the fundamentals of buisness. If a buisness can produce something innovative, they will, why? Because innovation is what keeps a company growing. Also the first company to release this tire, will capture a large market of buyers, which would drive there profit threw the roof. Not trying to sound rude, but companies live off of innovation... meaning your claims have no biases, other than your hunch feeling?
@@tituscara9878 Michelin have years ahead of you
I feel like these should still have rubber of covering on the sides to prevent object from getting lodged between the rubber spokes
A quick Google makes it appear the sides were left off to help with heat disapation, the added materials from.the spoke retain significantly more heat which can lead to blow outs.
That saftey issue is the largest problem for them I see but a cool idea
yeah, when it's flooding, trash could lodge on those gaps..
And when the sides are covered, any puncture will allow water into one chamber, creating an imbalance.
If the sides were covered up the tire would be air tight 🤦

These have been used on construction vehicles for several years now.

i've said this for years....with all the new technology, and composites, they should be able to come up with something.
These have been around for years and years. 30+.
That type of tyres uses more fuel, so no environmental benefit at all...
@@songoku7915 It has NOTHING to do with environmental. It has everything to do with not getting a flat as they are airless.
@@Coltn3125 in the video it is pointed that buying those tyres we re helping to the environment sources. No way, that's not true because as i said you waste more fuel as you drive with me. But if you want, there are flat less tyres that you can buy. Go ahaid.
Just wondering how long the tire stays strong enough. Constant pumping motion on the "spokes" anyway.
Curious to know how stiff the tires would be at -40*, My Hankook I-pikes are pretty stiff in that kind of nasty cold
We would all benefit having tires like these.
Glad that they'll finally be releasing these things soon! Wish they could do it by 2020 or 2021 instead! These will save so many hassles, it's unreal. Thanks for the update!
You right cause your dumb ass will be dead and whoever else around when you crash genius some people really don't have values of brain huh wow
Here in arizona they have invented a device which can grab a rear wheel of a vehicle during a high speed chase. It is very effective and has just seen its first use in a real life situation.
Very useful for bicycles :)
