This morning, between 8:00 and 9:00 a.m., the official Volkswagen F. Tomé dealership (Calle de Tauro, 27 - Madrid) hosted the first Iberian stop of the ambitious ID. Buzz World Record EV Tour, an expedition led by German Rainer Zietlow, which seeks to set a new Guinness World Record by traveling through the greatest number of countries in the world in a single journey with a 100% electric vehicle.

During the meeting, specialized media, professionals from the tire and automotive sectors, and sustainable mobility enthusiasts had the opportunity to get a close look at the Volkswagen ID. Buzz LWB (long wheelbase), the star model of the expedition, equipped with an 86 kWh net battery and GitiSynergyH2 tires, specifically designed for electric vehicles. The expedition, which departed on June 24 from Hannover (Germany), will cover more than 80,000 kilometers and 75 countries on five continents, demonstrating that electric mobility is prepared to face the most demanding challenges on the planet: extreme climates, uneven terrain, remote areas and a charging infrastructure that is still under development.

Tiresur, exclusive distributor in the Iberian Peninsula of the Giti brand, supports this initiative that reinforces the role of the tire as a key element for safety and performance in the mobility of the future.

The ID. Buzz Tour team will continue its route towards Lisbon, where it will make its second Iberian stop this afternoon, between 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., before continuing its journey.

Tiresur, an international tire distributor and strategic partner of GT Radial in the Iberian Peninsula, has reached a historic milestone: the distribution of the four millionth tire of the renowned brand it distributes exclusively. The order containing the symbolic tire was placed by Vulcanizados Lanzas, a trusted customer of the distributor, who has received an award in recognition of their loyalty and trust.

"For us, each customer is key in the value chain, but reaching this round figure with Vulcanizados Lanzas has a special value due to the joint trajectory we have been building," highlighted Paco García, general manager of Tiresur. “Their daily commitment to quality, service and the trust placed in GT Radial reflect the values we share at Tiresur.”

The award recognises not only the figure achieved, but also the consolidation of GT Radial as a benchmark brand in the Tiresur catalogue, which has achieved significant penetration in the Spanish market thanks to its excellent quality, reliability and the versatility of its range.

Vulcanizados Lanzas expressed their gratitude for the recognition and valued the continued support they receive from Tiresur. "Having a supplier that not only guarantees product and logistics, but also proximity, attention, and real solutions, makes a difference in our daily work as a workshop," they stated during the award ceremony.

With this gesture, Tiresur reaffirms its commitment to the joint growth of the GT Radial brand and its network of clients, celebrating milestones that reflect not only commercial success, but also the trust built around a product that has demonstrated great performance and an excellent reception in the market throughout all these years. The delivery of the four millionth tire symbolizes a solid and lasting alliance and reinforces the role of GT Radial as a strategic pillar within Tiresur's offering.

Tiresur, an international tire distributor and a leader in the sector in the Iberian Peninsula, is adding the Celestis brand to its portfolio, specializing exclusively in truck tires. This new addition reinforces Tiresur's position in the TBR segment, with an offering focused on durability, performance, and operational efficiency.

Designed to meet the demands of professional transport, Celestis offers a robust and competitive range, developed to maximize the profitability of workshops, fleets, and professionals in the sector. Its products are prepared to perform in severe conditions thanks to their quality and a practical approach adapted to the day-to-day of road transport.

Celestis is part of the JK Tyre group, one of the largest tire manufacturers worldwide, with more than 40 years of experience in the development of radial technology and a presence in more than 100 countries.

Celestis thus joins a portfolio that continues to gain in value, specialization, and market coverage.

Tiresur, an international tire distributor and industry leader in the Iberian Peninsula, announces the official launch of GALA, its new virtual agent based on artificial intelligence.

The development of GALA is one of Tiresur's strategic pillars for this year 2025. Built on the real needs of its workshops and with a vision for future growth, Tiresur's international general manager, Paco García, stated that with GALA they are taking a firm step towards intelligent digitalization:

“It's not just about automating processes, but about truly improving our customers' experience. We want workshops to work better, faster and with more control. GALA was born for this and will continue to evolve with them.”

What What makes GALA different?

Tiresur, an international tire distributor and one of the industry leaders in the Iberian Peninsula, announces the incorporation of Doublestar as a new brand in its portfolio for the passenger car, van, and 4x4/SUV segments, consolidating its distribution in Spain and Portugal.

This launch follows eight years of successful collaboration within the framework of exclusive distribution for a partial market. Now, Doublestar is fully integrated as a total market brand for both countries, expanding its presence and availability in the Tiresur professional network.

An international benchmark, Doublestar was founded in 1921 and has more than a century of industrial experience. It is currently among the 500 most influential brands in Asia and the 500 most valuable brands in China, endorsing its position as a prestigious global manufacturer.

Doublestar Group has established itself as a diversified international group and a leader in intelligent tire manufacturing in China. It was also the first company in the sector to have 4.0 factories for the comprehensive production of PCR (passenger car) and TBR (truck) tires.

The expansion of this alliance reinforces Tiresur's commitment to innovation, quality, and diversification, positioning Doublestar as a competitive and strategic option for the Iberian market.

“Expanding our relationship with Doublestar and turning it into a total-market brand in Spain and Portugal is part of our sustainable growth strategy. "It means offering our customers a proven quality solution, backed by a company with a modern and long-term industrial vision," Tiresur emphasizes.

With this addition, Tiresur continues to strengthen its position as a trusted supplier in the professional channel, reaffirming its leadership in tire distribution in the Iberian Peninsula.

Following the official announcement last February during the 14th Center’s Auto Annual Convention, the Michelin Xclusive program is now fully active in the workshop network, marking a new milestone in the collaboration agreement between Tiresur and Michelin.

Workshops associated with the Center’s Auto network have already begun to benefit from the numerous advantages offered by this exclusive program, including gifts and training activities. This implementation phase reinforces Center’s Auto's commitment to excellence in service and the continuous improvement of its workshops, focusing on professionalization, profitability, and customer experience.

“The operational launch of the Michelin Xclusive program in our network is excellent news. Our workshops can enjoy a program that will allow them offer an even more competitive service," said Paco García, general manager of Tiresur.

This push is aligned with Center's Auto's strategic objectives for 2025, which focus on workshop modernization, management efficiency, and access to resources that boost growth.

The cooperation between Tiresur and Michelin is thus consolidated, combining the distributor's knowledge with the manufacturer's global leadership and offering workshops a high-value proposition.
