The safety feature, developed using Beru F1 Systems’ extensive motorsport experience, is standard fit on U.S. Gallardo and MurciÉlago models to comply with the TREAD Act, which makes TPMS mandatory for passenger vehicles and light trucks sold in the U.S.
Specialist and niche vehicle manufacturers rightly demand robust and integrated solutions,” says Beru F1 Systems’ managing director John Bailey. “The higher speeds, higher cornering forces and demands experienced by performance cars rule out many solutions currently available. Our system is robust, light yet still retains all the integration features such as end of line testing and dealer diagnostics that OEMs require.”
TPMS is fitted as standard on U.S. specification MY08 Gallardo and MurciÉlago vehicle lines and is an option in other markets.
