Trial convinces Anglian Water of Michelin Agilis CrossClimate's versatility

摘要

Anglian Water is apparently well pleased with how its ongoing trial of the Agilis CrossClimate van tyre is progressing. Michelin reports that its all-season rubber excelled during both the Beast from the East in February and this summer's record-breaking hot spell. The Arctic blast caused chaos on Britain's roads, but came at the right time for one of Michelin's latest products to prove its worth. "During the Beast from the East, when our drivers did go out, they felt like they had the extra confidence because of the additional grip," says Dave Leggett, Anglian Water's fleet operations manager. "Now in the hot weather we're seeing the same level of performance. A lot of the vans have to go down dirt tracks, across fields and difficult terrains and the drivers have noticed a step up in grip and general traction."
