New Tyre Variants

The four new tyre models introduced by JK Tyre are the JETWAY JUM XM, JETWAY JUC XM, JETSTEEL JDC XD, and the innovative JETWAY JUXe, designed specifically for electric buses.

JETWAY JUM XM

The JETWAY JUM XM is the most energy-efficient tyre in its category, featuring a 4-Star Rating and an RRc value of 4.9 KN/n. This next-generation tubeless tyre is specifically designed for buses and trucks. It sets new benchmarks for fuel economy and cost optimization, promising significant fuel savings for transporters. Fuel expenses account for approximately 50% of total operating costs in India, making this tyre a crucial solution for reducing costs. Additionally, by decreasing fuel consumption, the JETWAY JUM XM also helps in significantly cutting down carbon emissions, offering a sustainable and economically viable solution for the transportation industry.

JETWAY JUC XM & JETSTEEL JDC XD

The JETWAY JUC XM and JETSTEEL JDC XD tyres are engineered to meet current demands for enhanced performance, durability, and efficiency. The JETWAY JUC XM is developed for tippers and trailers, boasting a remarkable 10% longer tyre life. This longer lifespan translates to lower operational costs and increased efficiency for transporters. On the other hand, the JETSTEEL JDC XD tyre is designed to handle the demanding requirements of heavy-load transportation, ensuring long-lasting performance and reliability in both on-road and off-road conditions. Known for its durability and sturdiness, this tyre is ideal for use in tippers on drive and dummy axles.

JETWAY JUXe

The JETWAY JUXe is a revolutionary tyre specially designed for electric buses. This tyre is set to redefine performance and sustainability standards in the electric vehicle (EV) segment. The JETWAY JUXe features low RRc, enabling electric buses to travel more kilometres per charge. This enhances efficiency and operational cost savings for electric bus operators. Besides its energy-efficient design, the JETWAY JUXe also marks JK Tyre's foray into low-noise tyres, contributing to a quieter urban environment and promoting eco-friendly transportation solutions. These tyres are ideal for the evolving needs of India's sustainable mobility landscape. The JETWAY JUXe tyre will also be deployed on TATA Motor’s EV buses, showcasing a collaborative effort to drive innovation and sustainability in India's public transportation sector.
