Michelin Americas Truck Tires a division of Michelin North America Inc, announced the launch of its new Michelin X Multi Energy Z, a regional steer tire that meets US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) SmartWay-verified requirements.
With a 15% reduction in rolling resistance, the tire delivers fuel efficiency, as well as longevity and a high degree of overall durability.
Additionally, the X Multi Energy Z is ideal for the emerging super regional trucking application, which requires a tire that can withstand both irregular wear and scrub. The super regional application is emerging due to changing logistical and transportation patterns.
The X Multi Energy Z tire is engineered with a dual compound tread and a new energy casing that provides low rolling resistance and long tread life. Outstanding handling is delivered by inter-locking Matrix sipes, and casing life is extended by curb guards and a rectangular bead bundle. This tire is available in three sizes: 11R22.5 LRG, 11R22.5 LRH, and 275/80R22.5 LRH.
