Nokian Tyres Launches Intuitu™ 2.0, smart tyre technology featuring smart pressure assistant with load-sensing.
The Latest Technology
The Intuitu™ 2.0 received the Agritechnica Innovation Award presented by the German Agricultural Society DLG. For the first time in agriculture, farmers can receive tyre pressure recommendations on the go, based on the tractor’s operating weight and use conditions, using just a tyre sensor and a smartphone.
The new technology is available exclusively with Nokian Tyres Soil King VF, aiming to help maximise productivity, protect soil health and extend tyre life.
The Intuitu™ 2.0 for Soil King VF tyre uses load-sensing technology to provide precise tyre pressure recommendations based on the tractor’s actual operating weight and usage conditions. With sensors installed in the inner liner of the tyres, the system measures the load being carried. In the Intuitu mobile app, the user selects the working conditions and within moments the recommended pressure for road and field use is displayed. The specialised knowledge to calculate the tractor’s operating weight with implements and ballasting is not required, and all necessary data is available in one place, ensuring informed decisions.
“Without the Intuitu Smart Pressure Assistant, determining the correct tyre pressure requires significant time, expertise, and access to costly equipment such as weighbridges, axle scales, or digital tools that demand detailed input. Since this process must be repeated every time the tractor’s implements and ballasting change, it is too easily skipped altogether. As a result, farmers miss out on the full benefits of VF tyres,” says Matthew Crocker, Product Manager at Nokian Tyres.
Intuitu™ 2.0 was one of the Silver Medal winners of the Agritechnica Innovation Award, awarded to innovations that represent a significant improvement to an existing product or process, have practical relevance and demonstrate enhanced reliability and efficiency, and have a positive environmental impact.
Maximising Performance
Tyre pressure plays a crucial role in agricultural performance, yet it is often overlooked. With Intuitu™ 2.0, farmers can now fully unlock the benefits of Soil King VF tyres by ensuring the correct pressure in every situation. This means improved power transfer, lower fuel consumption, minimised soil compaction, and extended tyre life — helping farmers improve efficiency, boost productivity, and protect soil health for better crop yields over time.
Intuitu™ 2.0 will be available across all sizes of the Nokian Tyres Soil King VF tyre range. Soil King VF has received an award from the DLG (Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft) for its best-in-class performance in both field work and transport, delivering the highest tractive performance and the lowest specific fuel consumption under identical test conditions. Pairing this premium tyre with Intuitu™ 2.0 ensures farmers can consistently achieve these benefits in real-world operations.
Nokian Tyres Intuitu 2.0 will make its first appearance at the agricultural trade fair Agritechnica 2025 in Hanover, November 9–15. The capabilities of the innovation, including the load-sensing technology, will be showcased at stand 20B05. Visitors can explore how the application works and learn about the benefits the technology brings to everyday farming operations.
“Since its launch, users have valued the plug-and-play simplicity of the Intuitu™ solution. At Nokian Tyres, we are committed to advancing digital tyre technology to meet the evolving needs of agriculture professionals. With this latest innovation, we make real-time tractor tyre load measurement accessible and affordable — helping contractors and all professionals in the field work more efficiently every day,” says Nokian Tyres President & CEO Paolo Pompei.
The development of Intuitu 2.0 has been partially funded by Business Finland, a state-owned Finnish organisation that supports innovation, and has been validated in collaboration with major global tractor manufacturers, ensuring its practical relevance and reliability in agricultural use.
