Recently, according to overseas media reports, Land Rover to the US Patent and Trademark Office submitted a new patent from military technology, patented "multi-mode central tire filling and exhaust system", which is used for civilian production vehicles, according to Different conditions at any time to adjust the tire tire pressure to take into account the vehicle in the off-road pavement or pavement under the best condition, but also can make the owner more calmly deal with tires and so on.

Central tire pressure and exhaust system has been used in military vehicles or field vehicles. However, Land Rover's multi-mode central tire charge and discharge system to be more advanced, which can be selected according to the driver's driving mode for accurate tire pressure adjustment. In addition to switching according to the driver's instructions, it can also be automatically adjusted according to the data input by the sensor.

In the standard road conditions, the vehicle's tire pressure will remain at a normal level; in the case of high-speed cruise on a flat road, the system will fill the tire with more gas to reduce the tire rolling resistance, to achieve fuel economy. When the vehicle enters the off-road surface, the vehicle will first adjust the tire pressure to the law to allow the tire pressure range of the lower limit, and once the driver will be reduced to a specific critical value, the tire pressure will be further reduced to increase the tire Grounding area, to strengthen the grip. Finally, if the traction control system detects that the vehicle has been trapped, the central tire pressure and exhaust system will continue to reduce tire pressure.

In addition to anytime, anywhere to adjust the tire pressure on demand, Land Rover this new technology can also help owners cope with tires and mild tire leakage. When the tire because the valve damage or tread wear to form a "slow spill" phenomenon, the system can continue to inflate the tire to meet the tire pressure required to drive the driver to help the driver in the case of tire damage as far as possible The Foreign media is expected, Land Rover's multi-mode central tire filling and deflation system will be gradually equipped with the future of Land Rover's new models.
