AUSTONE Tires celebrate their premiere at Autopromotec and present the new development ‘AAU902’
Darmstadt, Germany, May 2025 – The PRINX Europe brand AUSTONE Tires are exhibiting at Autopromotec in Italy for the first time. The focus is on sustainable solutions for fleets and logistics, including the new high-mileage TBR development ‘AAU902’.
If, as expected, around 100,000 visitors stream through the exhibition halls, that’s going to be quite something. Autopromotec is the largest international trade fair for vehicle equipment and the aftermarket in Italy (21-24 May, Bologna). AUSTONE Tires will present their latest models and combine them with proven bestsellers for fleet managers. The focus is on the sector for trucks and trailers.
The team led by Managing Director Thomas Wohlgemuth will also be presenting winter car tires, including a spike model from the recently launched Nordic range. Italian partners Fintyer and retreader Marangoni will also be at the stand (Hall 15, Stand 22).
Mileage and fuel efficiency – these models will be exhibited
AUSTONE’s latest development is the AAU902, which fulfils all specifications for electric buses.
The robust ATH 155 trailer tires, on the other hand, are not new – they are bestsellers with TÜV SÜD certification and OEM approval. The mileage and fuel efficiency are combined with outstanding regrooving friendliness and 3PMSF. The excellent casing and tread quality of the ATH 155 was the decisive factor for the RTH 155 retread model derived from it, which was launched on the market in 2025. It is produced by Marangoni using the ring-treat process and will also be on display at the trade fair stand.
