JK Tyre & Industries, an Indian tyre manufacturer and leader in Truck Bus Radial tyres, has created an upgraded line of tyres designed to fulfil the transportation sector’s increasing needs.

JK Tyre intends to expand its Truck & Bus Radial lineup with four new models: the JETWAY JUM XM, JETWAY JUC XM, JETSTEEL JDC XD, and the groundbreaking JETWAY JUXe for electric buses. The development of JK Tyre’s product line demonstrates the company’s commitment to providing sophisticated, high-performance solutions that combine exceptional performance, economic benefits, and environmental responsibility.

These new tyres represent a key milestone in JK Tyre’s commitment to promoting sustainable transportation solutions. JK Tyre continues to lead the way in transforming India’s transport sector by providing tyres that improve performance, operational efficiency, cost savings, and sustainability.

Speaking at the event, Anuj Kathuria, President (India), JK Tyre & Industries Ltd, says “As a leader in this category, we have a deep understanding of the segment and feel a responsibility to introduce sustainable solutions with advanced technology. Our latest offerings demonstrate our unwavering commitment to delivering high-performance, economically viable, and environmentally conscious solutions. We are confident that these tyres will serve as a dependable companion for fleet operators, ensuring safety on the move.”

These innovations were developed in large part because to JK Tyre’s excellent R&D centre in Mysuru and cutting-edge manufacturing techniques. All four tyres have been extensively tested in a range of settings to ensure the highest levels of quality and performance.

There are four innovative tyres:

JETWAY JUM XM:
The JETWAY JUM XM has a 4-star rating and an RRc value of 4.9 KN/n, making it the most energy-efficient model in its category. This next-generation tubeless tyre is specifically designed for buses and trucks, setting new standards for fuel efficiency and cost-effectiveness. This results in significant fuel savings for carriers, which is important given that fuel expenses account for over 50 percent of total operating costs in India.  Furthermore, reducing fuel usage will contribute to considerable reductions in carbon emissions, providing a sustainable and economically viable option for the transportation industry.

JETWAY JUC XM and JETSTEEL JDC XD:
In response to India’s vigorous infrastructure development, the business has introduced its cutting-edge X-Series product line, which includes JETWAY JUC XM and JETSTEEL JDC XD tyres. These two tyres, designed to match current demand, provide superior performance, durability, and efficiency.

The JUC XM boasts a remarkable 10 percent longer tyre life and was designed for tippers and trailers, resulting in lower operational costs and better efficiency, making it an excellent choice. The JDC XD tyre, on the other hand, is designed to meet the severe needs of heavy-load transportation, ensuring long-term performance and reliability in both on- and off-road circumstances. The tyre, known for its endurance and sturdiness, is designed for use in tippers with driving and dummy axles.

JETWAY JUXe:
The JETWAY JUXe, specifically built for electric buses, is a new tyre in the category that is expected to revolutionise performance and sustainability norms in the electric vehicle (EV) industry. The low RRc tyres allow electric buses to drive further per charge, resulting in increased efficiency and operational cost savings. In addition to its energy-efficient design, the JUXe represents JK Tyre’s entry into low-noise tyres, which aligns with the company’s dedication to sustainability. Low-noise tyres contribute to a quieter urban environment and encourage environmentally responsible transportation alternatives, making them appropriate for India’s changing sustainable mobility scenario.

The JETWAY JUXe tyre will also be installed on TATA Motors’ electric buses, highlighting a combined effort to foster innovation and sustainability in India’s public transport sector.
