Finnish Tire Brand Nokian Set to Launch Retractable Stud Winter Tires Later This Year

Nokian, a Finnish tire brand, is planning to launch a new snow tire with retractable tire studs that automatically deploy when temperatures drop, promising to bring the high-tech feature seen in James Bond movies to reality. The Hakkapeliitta 01 tire will debut in North America and Europe later this year in various sizes, primarily targeting Nordic countries where winter conditions are most extreme.
