Marangoni: ‘Maxo is top Choice for Lifestyle 4x4s’

Maragoni is aiming to fulfil the needs of so-called soft roaders with the release of a further 18-inch size. From school run, supermarket shop, Friday night dash to the seaside for the weekend or hauling horsebox to the pony club, Marangoni says its Maxo is the all-season tyre choice. However, at the same time Marangoni announced that the newly introduced Mythos 255/55 R18 is available for SUV drivers requiring an 18-inch size tyre.

With family drivers seeking proven safety and quality issues the Marangoni Maxo ticks all the boxes, says the Italian manufacturer’s promotional literature. At the heart of the Maxo’s design is Marangoni’s FOM-IC (Filler Optimised Mixture – Improved Compound) resulting in what the company calls “substantial increases in grip, performance and control.”

Said Derek Carruthers, Marangoni (Car Tyre Division) Sales & Marketing Director: “This is a market sector where buyers choose carefully and are setting safety, longevity and proven quality as their key priorities. These are essentially family vehicles with two or possibly three drivers and having the right tyre for all conditions is fundamental. Maxo is a tyre that both delivers and protects.”

Maragoni is pitching the Maxo at entry-level soft-roaders like the Toyota RAV 4 and Land Rover Freelander, through to crossover models to market-leading high-end SUVs.
