JK Tyre launches Ranger Series for SUVs

JK Tyre & Industries recently launched its range of Ranger multi-terrain tyres for SUVs in the domestic market. The company also plans to export the Ranger to international markets. 

The highlights of the Ranger Series include full depth grooves for optimum road contact, uniquely designed sidewalls and optimised sipe-designed tread to improve wear pattern and traction on slippery surfaces.

The tyres will be available in two specialised applications – Ranger A/T for all-terrain performance and Ranger H/T for tarmac application in 10 sizes.

Speaking at the launch of the product, Vivek Kamra, president – India Operations, JK Tyre & Industries, “Technology & R&D have been the driving forces at JK Tyre. Aspiring to augment our presence in each and every product segment, the Ranger Series reiterates our commitment to identify new and emerging customer needs and proactively introduce technologically advanced products to keep pace with the changing market scenario.”

JK Tyre says the Ranger Series has been rigorously tested globally by professional race drivers on various terrains and has been assessed as best in class in handling, grip and braking. The Ranger AT Series stops within 4 seconds on both dry and wet roads.

In addition to focusing on the India market, JK Tyre is also considering organic and inorganic growth in the emerging markets of South East Asia. The company currently has 9 plants across India and Mexico with an annual capacity of around 20 million tyres.
