The conceptual 'CONQUEROR' tire is a smart, shapeshifting solution for modern automobiles to help drivers feel safer behind the wheel when driving in any conditions.
The tire features an ultra-modern aesthetic that will provide impressive traction in any weather conditions thanks to its adaptable design. The tire will remain in its original form during regular driving, but will reveal spikes and additional grips when the conditions change to snowy to ensure traction is never lost.
The conceptual 'CONQUEROR' tire is the design work of Yuchan Ahn, HoChul Shin, Eunseok Seo and Korea Design Membership in collaboration with the Nexen Tire Corporation. The design could do away with the need for winter and summer tires in favor of a truly all-season model that doesn't need to changed.
