Regular checks help to increase uptime whilst maximising fuel efficiency and reducing fleet’s carbon footprint. In addition to our other advanced and predictive solutions, it’s an easy to install solution that will meet the needs of many operators who want to maximize their fleets’ uptime while reducing their operating costs.”
Easy to install and advanced data-access
The Goodyear DrivePoint system consists of on-valve tyre pressure sensors and battery-powered receivers that instantaneously read the pressure state of all tyres while a vehicle is moving through them. ork.
The collected data is transferred to the Goodyear cloud, allowing for easy access and reporting via the Goodyear Fleet Manager mobile and web applications for IOS and Android. If the pressure falls below the recommended level, the fleet manager receives an immediate alarm, allowing him to avert a potential tyre blowout, which could result in a vehicle stoppage and costly breakdown.
