Advanced Tire Pressure Monitoring System

The Advanced Tire Pressure Monitoring System keeps track of the air pressure in your tires in real time. If it detects that any tire has low pressure, it alerts the driver with a notification on the dashboard. Maintaining proper tire pressure not only improves fuel efficiency but also enhances safety by reducing the risk of blowouts or uneven tire wear.
