Self Regenerating Goodyear reCharge Concept Tire For Electric Cars

At the core of the reCharge concept is a reloadable and biodegradable tread compound that can be recharged with individual capsules, radically simplifying the process of replacing your tires. Filled with a customized liquid compound, these capsules allow the tread to regenerate and the tire to adapt over time to climatic circumstances, road conditions, or simply how you want to travel. Thanks to artificial intelligence a driver profile would be created around which the liquid compound would be customized, generating a compound blend tailored to each individual.

I'm gonna assume each tire will cost nearly as much as a car.

The important question is: if I supply this liquid by a hose from a big reservoir, can I do infinite burnouts?

[jasonficcone]

This will be sold like inject printers. Tires at a reasonable price or at a loss, but the capsules will cost more per mile than normal tires.

WOW!!! One day there maybe a city street that has a surface that wouldn't have a shitloada bumps in it...but not in my time. I guess that there is stuff being dreamed up and designed behind many closed doors. An interesting concept, the world doesn't stop.

Tyre compounds require vulcanisation. What next DIY spray on treads?

[duketogo]

Wonder how the tire deals with uneven road surfaces/bumps/potholes since it doesn't look like it has any air in it.

[jespalsingh]

sounds all nice and well but then again why is there no price mentioned? how much are they gonna be ?

[gator_productions]

I still don't understand how that works

[ben_p]

This is cool so please don't be a failure

[thatcarguy]

I’m not a fan of electric cars, but that is cool

[WLDWESLEY]

Needs a huuuuge infrastructure for cheapness. Thing is How much land are we gobble enough just for these kinds of infrastructure gigs

[rileykortemusic]

I like the idea, would like a more practical design

Tubeless tire sealant and Cotton Candy machine technology combined.

So what happens if you hit a big pothole?

Goodyear reCharge tire, now available for your daily Koenigsegg with no extra charge! Seriously to what market are they aiming with these? Im guessing its not for the average joe who wants to save a few bucks cause his EV with that instant torque goes through normal tires faster than his previous ICE car...

[bahhaziz]

Same as airless tires that never reached the market... Too expensive

[shanejohnston]

Until you curb the tire and have to replace it for $20, 000. I also bet the refills would cost more than your standard tire will. I think it's a neat idea but financially not feasible for the average joe. Only celebs and millionaires will be using these.

Goodyear, Dunlop, and Kelly tire boycott.

[XanetySeven]

Ummm seems like they work for all tires not just electric 😂
