Apollo Tyres EnduRace Tyres Offering Durability and Low Rolling Resistance
For the first time, the Apollo Tyres EnduRace RA, RD 2, and RT tyres are now available in the popular 19.5″ size, offering enhanced durability and low rolling resistance. These new drive and trailer tyres, certified with the ‘Three Peak Mountain and Snowflake’ insignia, are ideal for medium- and long-distance hauliers.
Apollo Tyres Introduces EnduRace Range for European Market
Apollo Tyres is expanding its range of EnduRace commercial vehicle tyres with the launch of its first options in the popular 19.5″ wheel category. The EnduRace RA all-axle tyre, RD 2 drive tyre, and RT trailer tyre (all in 265/70 R19.5 dimension) are now available to customers in Europe.
Developed and manufactured in Europe, the new EnduRace tyres are engineered to deliver exceptional durability, fuel efficiency, and grip and are certified for year-round use via the ‘Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake’ mark embossed on the sidewall.
Apollo Tyres EnduRace RA (265/70 R19.5)
The Apollo Tyres EnduRace RA is an all-axle truck tyre designed to offer high levels of durability, all-season grip, and low rolling resistance for enhanced efficiency. Part of the EnduRace RA family popular among medium- and long-distance hauliers across Europe, the new 19.5″ regional transport tyre features a slim, compact tread design with a wide contact area and sinusoidal grooves that optimise directional stability and even rates of wear on all axle positions.
The reinforced casing offers 1.5 times greater durability than the European regulatory standard, while its advanced slow-wearing compound promotes high mileage and long life. The tread compound has been developed to maximise abrasion resistance, and durability is further improved through the use of low-hysteresis materials on the high-stress portions of the tyre’s structure, countering deformation under load.
Apollo Tyres EnduRace RD 2 (265/70 R19.5)
The Apollo Tyres EnduRace RD 2 regional drive tyre guarantees high-quality performance in all weather conditions. It is engineered for exceptional mileage across varied road surfaces.
Equipped with Apollo Tyres’ innovative ‘Invisible Groove Technology’ and ‘Multi-Edge’ shoulder blocks, the truck tyre delivers outstanding traction, even on slippery surfaces. Its advanced tread pattern design enhances wear resistance for prolonged use and reduces rolling resistance, contributing to improved fuel efficiency.
The tyre’s reinforced free-rolling carcass, featuring an optimised ply casing, supports retreadability, enabling fleet operators to extend the tyre’s operational life. This ensures an extensive lifespan, allowing fleet operators to maintain continuous operation. Like the EnduRace RT, the RD 2 features a reinforced casing with tear resistance qualities, offering durability that exceeds European regulations by 1.7 times.
Apollo Tyres EnduRace RT (265/70 R19.5)
The Apollo Tyres EnduRace RT is a truck trailer tyre that provides excellent all-weather performance and superior durability for medium—and long-distance transport. It features an advanced tread pattern that affords even wear and uniform pressure distribution across a wide contact area while minimising rolling resistance and noise, making it an attractive option for European fleet operators.
The wide shoulder and specially formulated rubber compound enhance the tyre’s ability to resist abrasion and wear under demanding usage conditions. The reinforced casing helps deliver durability 1.7 times greater than the European regulatory requirement. The slow-wearing compound supports high mileage and has been engineered to support retreading for extended periods of ownership and reduced whole-life cost.
Yves Pouliquen, Vice President, Commercial, Europe at Apollo Tyres, said, “Our expansion into the 19.5″ rim segment represents a significant milestone for Apollo Tyres in Europe. Expanding our reach to a broader customer base was a key priority, and it underscores our commitment to meeting the diverse needs of the commercial vehicle sector. By extending our popular EnduRace line, we reinforce our market presence across Europe and advance our growth strategy.”
