The new model of the Continental brand - ContiVikingContact 5 immediately became a leader in the domestic tire market, occupying the first positions in the tests of reputable publications "Behind the Wheel" and "Auto Review".
The excellent qualities of the ContiVikingContact 5 tire in the most severe winter conditions are demonstrated thanks to the latest technologies in the development of the rubber compound and the excellent and super-efficient tread pattern of the ContiVikingContact 5. The pattern of the tread was based on the pattern of the previous model from Continental - ContiVikingContact 3. The success of the ContiVikingContact 5 was guaranteed. After all, the previous model became the winner of all tests for 4 years in a row.
The ContiVikingContact 5 was created by German engineers specifically for cars equipped with the ESC safety system.
Changes in the tread pattern
The difference between the new tire and its predecessor is the feature of the latest asymmetric tread pattern. The inclined longitudinal grooves are an innovative solution from Continental engineers. Water and slush are quickly and efficiently removed from the contact patch. And dirt stops remaining on the tire.
Handling on dry and wet roads
Handling on the road continues to bring pleasure. The elements in the side grooves make the tread pattern more rigid, and the increase in the contact area significantly reduces the braking distance.
Traction on ice and snow
The optimization of the transmission of the traction force led to a large number of gripping edges of the tread. The braking distance on snow is significantly reduced by the large number of lamellas. The soft rubber compound also improves traction. Lateral stability on ice is caused by the presence of gripping edges in the shoulder area.
ContiVikingContact 5 is significantly better than its previous model - ContiVikingContact 3:
- improved traction on ice;
- reduced braking distance;
- increased passability;
- driving comfort.
Continental ContiVikingContact 5 is the optimal choice for motorists. These are one of the best tires in the "non-studded" class.
