RoboTire, a Detroit-based robotics and automation company, announced it has installed its cutting-edge tire-changing system at a Detroit Garage, a forward-thinking and customer-focused tire shop in Plymouth, located at 33939 Plymouth Road in Livonia, MI. This marks the first retail operation of a RoboTire system in the company’s hometown, and RoboTire’s dedication to supporting the next generation of innovation, manufacturing, and automotive excellence that defines the Motor City.
For nearly 10 years, Detroit Garage has been the first to adopt new technologies to help them better serve their clients, and partnering with RoboTire is no different. RoboTire’s tire-changing system is designed to provide a faster, safer, and more efficient alternative to the traditional tire-changing shop. The automated system is equipped with advanced robotics, artificial intelligence, and high-definition cameras that can change four tires in as little as 25 minutes. RoboTire’s system is designed to be a platform for automotive maintenance, and the company has an extensive roadmap to roll out other services as part of that platform.

“We take pride in having our headquarters, manufacturing, and assembly facilities located in Michigan,” said Victor Darolfi, founder and CEO at RoboTire. “Bringing our revolutionary technology to drivers in our home city is a payoff of our mission and further evidence of our investment in the future of mobility innovation coming out of Detroit.”
In addition to debuting a RoboTire system at Detroit Garage, the upstart company recently paired up with Newlab Detroit, a technology collaborative and business hub located in Michigan Central’s Book Depository. RoboTire leadership and engineers will offer guidance and mentorship to startups seeking to develop, test, and launch new mobility-focused concepts. By early 2024, Michigan Central will host various companies that share a common focus on advancing automotive technology; joining RoboTire at the inaugural launch for the incubator was Executive Chairman of Ford Motor Company Bill Ford, in addition to Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist, and Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan.
“Our cutting-edge technology has earned recognition within the automotive and robotics industries,” said Darolfi. “In the same way, we’re excited to bring Detroit drivers a new way to get their tires changed, we are excited to deepen our ties to Detroit’s startup scene by partnering with Newlab Detroit and emerging companies.”
