Vredestein Quatrac Pro on the way

Apollo Vredestein is set to launch a brand-new all-season tyre, the Vredestein Quatrac Pro.

This is the first all-season tyre to be specially designed for the ultra-high-performance (UHP) segment and top-end models such as the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, the Volvo XC90 and the BMW 5-series.

The Quatrac Pro goes on-sale from April 1, 2019 and will be available in 50 sizes from 17 to 21 inch, 29 of which with the Y-speed rating (speeds up to 300 km/h).

Apollo Vredestein claims fourteen sizes will be absolutely unique in the all-season segment, including the 315/35 R20 suitable for the BMW X5 model’s rear axle.

The new all-season tyre offers superb handling and short braking distances under both dry and wet conditions and also eliminates the need to switch tyres according to season for car owners in this segment. The Quatrac Pro guarantees safety even with unexpected weather changes.

As with other Vredestein tyres, the Quatrac Pro bears the signature of Italdesign Giugiaro, ensuring a premium appearance that is every bit as impressive as its performance.

The advanced technology integrated in the Quatrac Pro includes wider longitudinal grooves combined with diverging grooves in the shoulder, optimising water evacuation and improving safety by reducing wet braking distance even at high speed. Moreover, wide centre ribs will provide the optimal steering sensitivity and control that is required for cars in the UHP segment.

The advanced compound material has a high silica and resin content, which ensures excellent traction on wet and snowy roads, while the exceptionally even pressure distribution means the sipes in the centre area are very effective on snow.

Finally, the distinctive winter and summer sides guarantee high performance in all seasons – the tyre carries the European snowflake symbol, indicating compliance with EU winter tyre regulations (ECE R117).
