The air-filled Airbump panels, manufactured from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), can compress up to 20 mm, and bounce back to shape in an instant. TPU materials are rarely selected for a vehicle’s exterior, but by working together, we were able to overcome several material-related challenges.

There's a lot of information swirling around the internet about thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) and similar materials such as TPU, TPV, and silicone. You may hear people talk about TPVs (thermoplastic vulcanizates) or TPUs (thermoplastic polyurethane) instead of TPEs. In reality, TPVs and TPUs are both types of TPEs, and are two of the most common.
