By Jim Gibbins - 3rd May 2021
Gurugram / USA / Canada – Apollo Tyres Ltd of Gurugram, says it has now entered the truck-bus tyre segment in the USA and Canada and developed tyre range that meets the demand of the North American commercial fleets. It says it has a phased product rollout to cover some 90% of the truck and bus market by 2024.
The company clarified that while the PV range was launched in September 2020 under the European brand, Vredestein (a brand and company is owned by Apollo), the commercial vehicle range has been introduced under the Apollo brand in North America. Apollo also says tyres have already undergone extensive on-road real time testing with a US waste-removal / haulage operation to benchmark the tyres against Tier-I competition across multiple re-tread cycles.
