Onkar Kanwar controlled Apollo Tyres used the glamorous platform of Geneva Motor Show to unveil a new high performance summer tyre for SUVs like the Audi Q5 and BMW X3 and X5. The tyres will go by the name of Apterra H/P.
The tyre is being introduced globally and has been developed by the Global PV R&D Centre of Apollo Tyres Ltd based out of the Netherlands. Beginning April 2014, a complete range of Apollo tyres for SUVs and 4X4 segment will be marketed under the Apterra name.
Apterra A/T would be for all terrain driving, where as Apterra H/T will be specially made for highway driving. In future more tyres would be introduced to expand this range and also higher speed index will be added to it
Available in H and V speed indexes, the Apterra range of tyres has a tread consisting of a multi-polymer compound for total safety, even at higher speeds. The large shoulder blocks, combined with the continuous centre rib, ensure a high degree of stability on the road, while the central rib also guarantees accurate handling.
The Advanced Sipe Technology would help with effective water dispersion and ensure great resistance to aquaplaning for these tyres. Moreover, the positioning of the various tread segments reduces noise levels considerably.
