Michelin has moved further into the truck tyre market with its launch of the X Multi Z 2 truck tyre – the latest addition to Michelin’s product range in the East Asia and Australia region.
Packed with latest revolutionary technologies, this all-position tyre fitment for Regional and Highway operations offers market-leading longevity and improved performance that matters, which are key benefits for fleet operators.
Michelin Malaysia’s Commercial Director for B2B, Mr. Muhammad Arya Subrata said, “Thanks to the three core revolutionary technologies, the MICHELIN X MULTI Z 2 brings to our targeted customers uncompromised safety performance and helps meet their delivery timing and efficiency – thus, leading to increased productivity and improved cost-effectiveness for their businesses.”
The three major breakthrough technologies featured in MICHELIN X MULTI Z 2 are: Regenion, Infinicoil, and HT Nylon.
Regenion is Michelin technology of differently shaped grooves that ensure minimal tread deformation, which lowers rolling resistance and leads to less fuel consumption.
Infinicoil on the other hand, increases the robustness of the tyres. It’s a technology of reinforced tread plies with a continuously wound steel wire of up to 400 meters long, depending on tyre size, inside the casing.
The high tensile steel wire increases tyre strength and thus optimizes the ground contact patch and delivers high mileage potential. This technology provides greater stability throughout the tyre’s lifetime, helps reduce risk of sudden pressure loss for better vehicle control, extends mobility even when punctured, and improves uneven wear as it flattens the contact patch – thus, contributing to longer mileage and less unexpected breakdown incidences.
“I am convinced that the new MICHELIN X MULTI Z 2 shall stir the truck tyre markets across the region with its exceptional high performance and value to fleet customers,” concluded Mr. Muhammad Arya Subrata.
In Malaysia, the new MICHELIN X MULTI Z 2 is now available in dimensions 11R22.5 at Michelin’s authorized truck tyre dealers across the nation.
