“We are honoured that Deutz-Fahr has selected our Traxion tyres for its Series 6 tractors. This decision comes in response to the increased demand from contractors and farmers operating Deutz-Fahr tractors, who appreciate the value of Vredestein tyres,” said Laurence Bennett, Head Off-Highway Tyres at Apollo Tyres. “Our Traxion technology is designed to deliver expected performance with enhanced traction, comfort and extended tyre life. All these are crucial factors for demanding agricultural work. This partnership reflects the strong reputation we’ve built in the market.”
Vredestein Traxion features a curved lug design, with extra rubber in the center for optimal on-road comfort and high wear resistance. The unique non-parallel lugs diverge towards the shoulder of the tread, providing additional traction and high self-cleaning capabilities in the field.
