Just like bikes need dedicated attention, cars and trucks need a one-stop shop to meet end-to-end purchase and aftersales requirements. To add a layer of focused services, dedicated pits tops offering professional and modern upkeep for critical ancillary segments like tyres are mushrooming in a welcome move. Going beyond fixing punctures, tyre zones especially for commercial vehicles are becoming popular with fleet operators as they tick most boxes and are backed by tyre OEM credibility. In a day spent at Apollo Tyres’ CV Zone, Ashuraj Agencies in Pawane, Navi Mumbai, much clarity was gained on the impressive value proposition on offer.

Tyres themselves have graduated from nylon to TBRs given the growing ask for radials,” he averred.
