Apollo Tyres Ltd is expanding its collaboration with Claas by introducing 14 new sizes of Vredestein Traxion tyres for Arion 500 and 600 midrange tractors. 

Vredestein tyres have been used on higher hp Claas tractors already for quite some time, including Axion 800 and 900 models. These are manufactured in Le Mans, France, and the Xerion range is  produced in Harsewinkel, Germany.

“We are proud to strengthen our partnership with Claas and expand the availability of our Traxion tyres across its tractor ranges,” said Laurence Bennett, Head Off-Highway Tyres at Apollo Tyres. “This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to product innovation and customer satisfaction. Our partnership with Claas extends beyond tractors, and now encompasses harvesters, telehandlers, wheel loaders, and bale presses. This latest launch programme showcases the versatility of Vredestein tyres across the entire range of Claas agricultural machinery.”

The new Vredestein Traxion tyre sizes are now available for selection on the Claas tractor configurator.
