I am convinced that this new offer from Michelin will stir the bus tyre markets across India with its exceptional high performance and value to fleet customers”

The New tyres use Michelins patented technologies 

REGENION: the tyre’s self-regenerating tread maintains good grip in all conditions throughout its working life thanks to the emergence of new grooves as it wears.

INFINICOIL: a continuous steel wire wrapped around the tyre not only improves resilience in demanding running conditions but also delivers rolling resistance and durability gains.

POWERCOIL: a new generation of particularly strong steel cables for a lighter casing, superior longevity and lower rolling resistance.

DURACOIL: a new bead design that notably incorporates high-resistance nylon to strengthen the lower part of the tyre’s sidewall and simplify retreading.

Like all Michelin truck and bus tyres, MICHELIN X® MULTI™ tyres can be regrooved and retreaded, thereby contributing to Michelin’s ‘Everything Sustainable’ plan. Extended tyre life in-line with circular-economy thinking allows truck operators to reduce both their running costs and their environmental footprint, while still benefiting from the maximum potential of their tyres
