Yokohama India backs record-breaking expedition

Yokohama India has announced its association with Paras Bhimta for his expedition from Leh to Kanyakumari. Yokohama Geolandar all-terrain G015 will be Bhimta’s wheels of choice for his vehicle in his attempt to break the record for the fastest North to South expedition on four wheels in the solo category. The journey begins on September 20, 2022.

Paras Bhimta is targeting to complete this 4000 km endeavour in record breaking time of below 56 hours and 20 minutes time mark.

“The test of attrition has always elicited my interest as a passionate endurance driver who wants to travel for the long haul. This journey would present numerous challenges because it would traverse all of India’s terrains,” said Paras Bhimta.

The Geolandar AT G015 by Yokohama is a high-dimension all-terrain tyre that has unmatched durability and longer tread life. It has been specifically designed for excellent wet grip and off-road traction. The features of this tyre make it an appropriate choice for such a potential record-breaking expedition.

“The brand Yokohama is all about celebrating motoring lifestyle. We are happy to be associated with Paras Bhimta’s passion for motoring with our all-terrain Geolandar tyres and have spruced up his vehicle with the sporty Yokohama decals as he embarks on a journey to be a potential record breaker. From Leh to Kanyakumari, the Geolandars will wheel him through the ever-changing and gruelling terrains of India.” – Harshwardhan Honmode, Director at Yokohama India.
