Tyre pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) are now mandatory in new commercial vehicles sold across Europe, and Goodyear is rolling out a fleet tool that accommodates updated EU rules covering TPMS. Vehicle manufacturers often fit systems that only supply tyre data directly to the driver; Goodyear TPMS Connect extends the visibility of this data to fleet managers.
A series of enhancements aimed at improving service levels for transport fleets and dealers are now part of the Goodyear CheckPoint tyre management solution. Goodyear has designed the latest upgrades to optimise tyre and vehicle maintenance, minimise downtime, and enhance overall fleet performance, and will showcase these advances at next week’s IAA Transportation show in Germany.
New legislation applicable to Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) will come into effect within the European Union from 7 July. The new law outlines the minimum operating standard for TPMS devices, including the data that’s displayed to drivers in real-time.
