Continental ContiPowerContact
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Improved controllability
- Fuel-efficient performance
- Summer weather traction
- Quiet driving experience
OVERVIEW
The Continental ContiPowerContact is a touring, summer tire made for passenger vehicles.
The better road contact also upgrades controllability. The asymmetric tread design’s consistent road contact manages to significantly improve steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, the tire manages to effectively enhance its steering responses and accuracy to the driver’s commands. Additionally, the structure is secured against driving pressure. The shoulder blocks firmly grip the road, upgrading its cornering and maneuvering. As a result, the tread elements effectively increase braking power, shortening the braking distance.
This low rolling resistance tire promotes better fuel economy. The special rubber compound lowers the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the external pressure affecting the tire, which determines how much energy the vehicle needs to keep the tires in motion. The reduced rolling resistance eases the driving pressure of the tires, which decreases the vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The tire ensures a fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly driving experience.
The model offers great summer traction. The summer compound and the ideal tread design increase the dry and wet grip on the road. The compound actively avoids heat build-up along the tread area, while the tread elements increase the grip with additional biting edges. The wide circumferential grooves and the angled lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning, by channeling water from the footprint. This combination ensures the tire’s safe summer-weather performance, boosting warm-temperature driving safety.
The Continental ContiPowerContact guarantees a quiet drive. The variable pitch sequence decreases the road noise heard in the vehicle’s cabin. The tread design’s pitch sequence negates road noise generated while the tires are in motion. It creates a sound frequency that cancels road and tread pattern noise out during the drive. The result is a quiet and comfortable drive.
