Nokian smart tyre technology awarded prestigious distinction

Nokian Tyres has received the Agritechnica Innovation Award presented by the German Agricultural Society DLG. The Silver Medal distinction was awarded to Nokian Tyres’ next-generation smart tyre technology, the Intuitu 2.0 Smart Pressure Assistant.

Nokian Tyres says the Intuitu 2.0 Smart Pressure Assistant was developed for its Soil King VF tractor tyres, and is next generation smart tyre technology featuring load-sensing.

The innovation uses tyre sensors to determine the axle load during driving and suggests the correct tyre pressure for use on the road and for working on the field. The first-generation Intuitu smart tyre technology with its easy-to-use mobile device application was first introduced by Nokian Tyres in 2020, and the digital tyre technology has since been developed further to solve the challenges farmers face every day.

Nokian Tyres will launch the innovation in October.

“Intuitu 2.0 provides farmers with a unique way to make the most out of their machines while maximising productivity, lowering fuel consumption, protecting soil and extending tyre life. We are very excited to launch the new technology in October, and very proud that its exceptional value and impact has also been recognised by DLG,” said Nokian Tyres president and CEO, Paolo Pompei.

The winners of the Agritechnica Innovation Award are selected by an independent jury of experts. It is seen as one of the most respected honours in the global agricultural machinery industry, recognising groundbreaking technologies that advance farming practices, improve efficiency, and promote sustainability.
