Kumho Tire has partnered with Ansible Motion to develop next-generation digital tires. The two companies will use advanced digital simulation technology to enhance Kumho’s tire performance verification system and strengthen its competitiveness in the development of tires for electric vehicles (EVs) and high-performance vehicles.
Kumho Tire expects that using driving simulators in R&D will reduce the time and cost of vehicle testing and prototype production, allowing more precise and efficient performance evaluation from the early stages of development.
Kim Youngjin, executive vice president and head of research and development at Kumho Tire, said, “This will serve as an opportunity to advance our research and development paradigm to be more digitally focused.
