Apollo Tyres Ltd is expanding its collaboration with CLAAS, a global leader in agricultural machinery, by introducing 14 new sizes of Vredestein Traxion tyres for ARION 500 and 600 midrange tractors.

Vredestein tyres have long been available for larger CLAAS tractors, including Axion 800 and 900 models manufactured in Le Mans, France, and the Xerion range produced in Harsewinkel, Germany. Expanding the Traxion range for ARION 500 and 600 models addresses strong demand from end users for Vredestein tyres across a diverse range of CLAAS equipment.

Vredestein Traxion tyres have been engineered to significantly improve tractor performance, helping to maximise productivity and fuel efficiency for reduced operating costs and low total cost of ownership. Farmers and operators also value the Traxion’s driving comfort, both on and off road.

We are proud to strengthen our partnership with CLAAS GmbH and expand the availability of our Traxion tyres across its tractor ranges. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to product innovation and customer satisfaction. Our partnership with CLAAS extends beyond tractors, and now encompasses harvesters, telehandlers, wheel loaders, and bale presses. This latest launch programme showcases the versatility and reliability of Vredestein tyres across the entire range of CLAAS agricultural machinery.
