Davanti expands Vantoura range
Davanti Tyres has expanded its Vantoura range, launching the Vantoura DX450 in sizes 13- to 17-inch.
According to the British brand, the latest addition to the range is a highly durable and efficiency-led van tyre for light commercial vehicles with exceptional mileage capabilities, designed to keep drivers moving in wet and dry conditions.
Following an extensive testing and development programme at industry-leading proving grounds such as Applus IDIADA, the new Vantoura tyre is claimed to offer confidence to van drivers thanks to its optimum mileage, stability and superior handling.
The Vantoura DX450 was submitted to DEKRA for open-road wear testing, which saw it achieve up to 36 per cent more mileage on average compared to Davanti’s previous generation commercial van tyre.
Davanti Tyres general manager, Peter Cross, commented: “The introduction of the Vantoura DX450 was a clear next step for the Vantoura range and would not have been possible without the hard work and expertise of our engineers.
“As the latest addition to Davanti’s commercial tyre range, the Vantoura DX450 will give drivers in more temperate climates the confidence that their tyres will provide performance, longevity and reliability, which is integral to completing their day-to-day jobs efficiently.”
Design features of the new Vantoura DX450, according to Davanti Tyres, include:
Strengthened sidewalls: Built to withstand tough driving conditions, the strengthened sidewalls provide excellent damage protection, ensuring reliability even in demanding situations.
Optimised tread pattern: Designed with precision, the optimised tread pattern ensures even wear, providing a smooth and comfortable ride. This tread pattern enhances stability and control across all driving conditions while reducing rolling resistance for improved fuel efficiency and long-lasting performance.
Outer block section: Solid shoulder blocks and a strong central rib design deliver a stable drive, allowing the driver to concentrate on the job. Heavy-duty shoulder construction delivers a responsive drive even under heavy loads and on challenging surfaces.
Increased tread depth: Engineered for longevity, the DX450 has an increased tread depth compared to the previous generation tyre, delivering significantly improved mileage performance and traction control.
Specially-formulated compound: This ensures wear resistance to enhance mileage capabilities even when carrying heavy loads.
