Award-winning innovation: Nokian Tyres launches the industry’s first smart tire technology with load-sensing to provide faster tire pressure recommendations

The new Intuitu™ 2.0 for Soil King VF tires introduces load-sensing technology to provide precise tire pressure recommendations based on the tractor’s actual operating weight and usage conditions. With sensors installed in the inner liner of the tires, the system measures the load being carried. In the Intuitu mobile app, the user selects the working conditions, and within moments the recommended pressures for road and field use are displayed. There is no need for specialized knowledge to calculate the tractor’s operating weight with implements and ballasting — all necessary data is available in one place, ensuring informed decisions. 

“Without the Intuitu Smart Pressure Assistant, determining the correct tire 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 tires,” says Matthew Crocker, Product Manager at Nokian Tyres.  

Intuitu™ 2.0 was one of the Silver Medal winners of the Agritechnica Innovation Award selected by an independent jury of experts. A Silver Medal is 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.  

Correct tire pressure: a critical factor in maximizing agricultural performance 

Tire 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 premium Soil King VF tires by ensuring the correct pressure in every situation. This means improved power transfer, lower fuel consumption, minimized soil compaction, and extended tire 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 tire range. Soil King VF has received an award by 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 tire with Intuitu™ 2.0 ensures farmers can consistently achieve these benefits in real-world operations. 

Intuitu 2.0 to be presented at Agritechnica 2025 

Nokian Tyres Intuitu 2.0 makes 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.  

From first release to load-sensing: The evolution of Intuitu™ 

Intuitu™ 2.0 is an upgrade to Nokian Tyres’ smart tire technology first introduced in 2019.  

“Since its launch, users have valued the plug-and-play simplicity of the Intuitu™ solution. At Nokian Tyres, we are committed to advancing digital tire technology to meet the evolving needs of agriculture professionals. With this latest innovation, we make real-time tractor tire 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 organization that supports innovation, and has been validated in collaboration with major global tractor manufacturers, ensuring its practical relevance and reliability in agricultural use. 

Made in Finland 

Nokian Heavy Tyres' heavy-duty tires, treads, and wheels have been awarded the Key Flag symbol and the Design from Finland mark, indicating that the products are manufactured in Finland and that the company has demonstrably invested in Finnish design.
