For the summer season 2017, Continental has prepared several new products for passenger cars and SUV class cars.
This new summer tire German company Continental fills the segments between 17 and 21 diameter, which includes classic cars, the vehicle with sporting habits, as well as SUVs. New tires PremiumContact 6 combine comfort, precise handling, maximum security and high levels of efficiency, as the tire life and fuel. To do this, engineers have developed a new rubber compound, innovative design based on high-tech bus SportContact 6, and a modern tread pattern ensures comfortable ride. The result is a product with improved sometimes 15% performance. The bus is really very quiet and excellent brakes.
New tires PremiumContact 6 will be available in 70 dimensions with a diameter of 17 to 21 inches for passenger cars and SUV class.
The range of Continental Group of tires for SUV class cars fully formed into production of a new tire CrossContact ATR.
For good traction in off-road tire developers gave CrossContact ATR special "clutch teeth" between the grooves and open tread pattern with lots of sipes. This tread pattern provides additional traction and a secure grip on loose surfaces.
These tires specifically designed for driving on road and off-road, are available in a diameter dimension of 21 15 to 20 inches and a width of 205 to 275 mm with the ratio of section height of 40 to 80% of the width. Bus CrossContact ATR is certified for speeds up to 240 km / h and is suitable for a wide range of class SUV and SUVs.
When the ratio of on-road / off-road at the level of the new tire 70/30 CrossContact ATR is located between a classical off-road tire ContiCrossContact AT (50/50) and tires for primary use on roads such as the ContiCrossContact LX 2 (80/20) and PremiumContact 6 ( 100/0). Thus, she successfully completes the extensive range of tires for the Continental class SUV and off-road vehicles.
These tires are far superior to the previous generation tire in areas such as road handling, steering precision and reaction characteristics at high speeds. To make this a reality excellent characteristics, some of which have been improved by up to 14%, design engineers Continental Group literally re-invented the chemical composition of the tread rubber composition and tread pattern and tire construction. The speed of these tires only limit the possibility of your car. In this summer season tire range was gradually expanded by 43 article and now has 97 titles, including ContiSilent technology (soft part inside) and the SSR (reinforced sidewall).
In the past, the combination of short braking distances on wet and dry roads was extremely problematic with low rolling resistance. ContiEcoContact 5 - a passenger tire, which combines these two qualities. During the development of changes have been made in nearly every element of the tire, and the result was the reduction of rolling resistance by 20% and increasing divergence by 12% while reducing the braking distance on wet surfaces. This car equipped with new tires ContiEcoContact 5, spends about 3% less fuel than a comparable car with standard tires. ContiEcoContact 5 tire is suitable for a wide range of models. It is available in versions with a diameter of 14 to 20 inches with the approved speed of 300 km/h.
