Apollo Wins Two Awards

Apollo Tyre’s new UHP Aspire has been voted Automotive Product of the Year by NDTV Profit and Car India magazine. The W-speed rated tyre – safe to up to 270km/h – was awarded this distinction by India’s leading business television channel and the popular car magazine at a function in Mumbai attended by leading representatives of India’s automotive industry.

At a separate awards ceremony, this time in New Delhi, Apollo was awarded a commendation for its road safety campaigns. Throughout the past year Apollo has undertaken to increase road safety awareness by highlighting correct tyre maintenance procedure. The commendation was given by the Institute of Road Traffic Education as part of their 2006 awards programme, and Apollo was the only commercial entity, alongside seven individuals and non-profit groups, to be granted such a distinction. Apollo intends to continue its road safety programmes in 2007.
