The Tire Pressure Monitoring System TPMS notifies you when your vehicle’s tire pressure is low or is going flat. The goal of a TPMS is avoiding traffic accidents, poor fuel economy, and increased tire wear due to under-inflated tires through early recognition of a hazardous state of the tires. This functionality first appeared in luxury vehicles in Europe in the 1980s. Below we have listed some cars with TPMS at an affordable price.
1. Nissan Magnite
The Magnite is currently the best-seller of Nissan in India. The TPMS in Magnite is exclusive to Top-end trim, XV Premium which is priced at Rs 7.68 lakhs (Ex-showroom, Delhi). However, it’s more of a Semi-TMPS because one cannot check the real-time pressure figures but only low-pressure figures and deflation condition.
2. Hyundai i20
The i20 is being offered with TPMS right from the Mid-Spec ‘Sportz’ Variant which is priced at Rs 7.69 Lakhs (Ex-showroom, delhi). Also, one can check real-time pressure in this premium hatchback.
3. Tata Nexon
The Tata Nexon is being offered with TPMS from the ‘XZ+ (S)’ Variant which is retailed at around Rs 10.55 lakhs (Ex-showroom, Delhi). Also, you can check the real-time pressure figures in this Compact Crossover as well.
4. Ford Ecosport
The Ecosport is being made available with TPMS only in recently launched SE variant which is priced at Rs 10.69 lakhs (Ex-showroom, Delhi). Since there’s an absence of boot-mounted spare wheel this variant gets a tyre puncture repair kit.
5. Hyundai Creta
Hyundai Offers the Creta with TPMS from the second bottom-most ‘EX’ variant which is priced at 10.96 lakhs (Ex-showroom, Delhi). However, it only gets an indicator which means one won’t be able to check he psi figures or affected tyre.
