leads to less fuel consumption. With the ground-breaking 3D metal printing techniques, the longitudi- nal grooves regenerate as the tyre wears, to deliver a high level of grip and traction throughout its lifecycle in all weather conditions. This di- rectly leads to a lower wear rate – thus, providing greater longevity by more than 20 per cent, compared to its predecessor Michelin X Multi Z.
- ogy breakthrough, which involves reinforced tread plies with a con- tinuously wound steel wire of up to 400 metres long, depending on the tyre size, inside the casing. The high tensile steel wire increases tyre strength, which optimises the ground contact patch and deliv- ers high mileage potential. This technology provides greater sta- bility throughout the tyre’s lifetime, helping to reduce the risk of sud- den pressure loss for better vehicle
control, extending the mobility of the tyre even when punctured, and improving patch. These factors directly contribute to longer mileage and less unexpected breakdown incidences, while HT Nylon, the third technological breakthrough is a product designed to strengthen bead endurance helps not only reduce tyre damage linked to long-distance, high- speed usage, as well as continuous us- age cycles by 10 per cent but also in- creases retreadability.
“I am convinced that the new Michelin X Multi Z 2 shall create a buzz around the truck tyre markets across the region with its exceptionally high performance - ed Muhammad Arya.
The new Michelin X Multi Z 2 is now available in two more new dimensions: 295/80R22.5 and 12R22.5 – along with the original 11R22.5, at all Michelin autho- rised truck tyre dealers across Malaysia.
