Continental ContiCrossContact Winter

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Winter weather traction
• Enhanced controllability
• Reduced road vibrations
• Longer lasting tread life

OVERVIEW

The Continental ContiCrossContact Winter is a touring, studless winter tire manufactured for SUVs and light trucks.

The tire ensures excellent winter weather traction. The model received the three mountain peak and snowflake symbol for its capability of conquering the most severe winter weather. Its asymmetric tread design, with the high-density siping detail, and the winter weather tire compound work together to ensure first-rate winter weather road gripping capability. The tire compound prevents weather damage from harming the tire in cold temperatures, while the tread pattern's extra biting edges firmly grip the road surface. The tread's wide circumferential grooves effectively prevent hydroplaning by eliminating water and slush from below the tire's footprint, guaranteeing a safer performance.

The model is easily controlled even in severe winter conditions. The tread design's optimal tread block placement enables the tire to maintain its road contact at all times. This boosts the steering responsiveness and driving stability greatly. In other words, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its responsiveness to the driver's commands, while the structure is stabilized during the drive. The tread design's shoulder tread blocks with the detailed siping design enhance the cornering and maneuvering capability. They heighten the number of biting edges that firmly grip the road surface and improve the cornering ability and power.

The tire offers a longer lasting tread life. The asymmetric tread design's optimal footprint keeps the tire's road contact at all times, which manages to evenly distribute the driving pressure across the entire tread area. The equally spread out forces of acceleration, cornering and braking lengthen the tread life by preventing irregular wear formations across the tire's surface. The increased even wear on the tire ensures an extended tread life and usability.

The ContiCrossContact Winter promotes a comfortable driving experience, even in winter weather. The tread design's optimal road contact enables the tire to closely follow the road surface at all times. This boosts the comfort levels by decreasing the road vibrations felt in the vehicles cabin while the tires are in motion, guaranteeing a comfortable and enjoyable drive.
