Davanti launches taxi and van tyres

Davanti has released two new tyres, the DX420, designed specifically for Hackney Carriages and the DX440 a rugged van tyre. The new tyres will be officially launched at China International Tyre Expo in Shanghai from 9 – 11 September where Davanti is at stand 5010, West Hall.

The Davanti DX420 is a heavy-duty commercial taxi tyre. Designed specifically for Hackney Carriages, the DX420 is said to be built to be tough and long lasting. In order to achieve this, a high wearing outer tread, innovative taxi-specific compound and high tensile strength steel belted construction combine to provide exceptional mileage capabilities.

The Davanti DX440 is a commercial van tyre with the strength and durability to endure heavy loads in all conditions. Versatile and designed to perform on both normal road terrains and in demanding site conditions, the high wearing DX440 endures heavy loads without compromising handling or comfort.

The offset outer block actively contains noise and provides superior drainage for exceptional all weather grip and a heavy-duty shoulder construction delivers a responsive drive under heavy loads and on demanding surfaces.

Wilson Zhang vice-general manager of Davanti said: “We’re really excited to be launching the next phase of the Davanti performance range. The response to our passenger tyres has been incredible and we’re confident the DX420 and DX440 will perform just as well.”

The release of the new tyres follows the launch of the Davanti DX640 and DX390. The DX640 is an UHP car and SUV tyre designed for grip and the DX390 is a high performance passenger car tyre designed for fuel efficiency and a comfortable drive.
