The all-season tire Continental ContiVanContact A/S is installed on small-capacity commercial vehicles. It is characterized by high efficiency when braking on wet pavement, stable traction and predictable behavior, both on dry asphalt and snowy roads. Reduces operating costs due to longer mileage before replacement and reduced fuel consumption.
Longitudinal traction on slippery surfaces
A distinctive feature of the tread pattern design is the increased number of transverse edges. A significant part of them is formed by straight lamellas, which, when opened, form sharp edges that easily penetrate the water film on the road surface. Since they are directed transversely, such elements have maximum efficiency during longitudinal accelerations, providing high traction and deceleration intensity. In such driving modes, they interact with longitudinal zigzag edges formed by longitudinal drainage grooves in the central part. They prevent lateral skidding, ensuring high directional stability.
Precision handling in all conditions
The tread pattern is distinguished by the presence of rigid bridges between blocks located in the same longitudinal row. Together with the massiveness of these elements, this solution gives the responses to steering precise and fast. As a result, the tire demonstrates ease of handling, regardless of weather and road conditions.
Long service life
The profile of the tread part of the tread is optimized so that under load, the contact patch becomes larger and takes a shape close to a square. Large blocks allow the tire to evenly distribute the weight of the vehicle under the road surface. This significantly reduces the level of abrasive impact on the tread, reducing its wear. For the same purposes, a number of components that increase its strength against tearing and stretching are included in the composition of the rubber mixture, due to which the tire demonstrates longer mileage before replacement, even in the most unfavorable operating conditions.
Key features:
- high traction and deceleration intensity on slippery surfaces is provided by a large number of transverse lamellas;
- rigid connection of blocks in a longitudinal row reduces rolling resistance and wear, increases directional stability and precision handling;
- zigzag walls of longitudinal drainage grooves further improve longitudinal traction on snow;
- long mileage before replacement due to the optimized tread profile and special components in the rubber mixture.
