Continental ControlContact Tour A/S Plus

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All season traction
• Enhanced controllability
• Fuel efficient performance
• High driving comfort levels

OVERVIEW

The Continental ControlContact Tour A/S Plus is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

The tire promotes great all season traction. The all season compound and the detailed tread design work together to boost the dry, wet, and winter weather traction. The optimal tread elements help to increase the number of biting edges gripping the road surface at all times, while the compound keeps the rubber flexibility in versatile weather situations. The circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from the footprint in wet weather conditions. The combination of these elements ensures a safer year round performance.

Fuel efficiency is also promoted with the EcoPlus technology. The all season compound and the EcoPlus compound allow the tire to ease the pressure off the tire, actively avoiding pressure build-up during the drive. This allows the tire to minimize the rolling resistance, which is the pressure affecting the tire which determines the vehicle's necessary fuel intake levels. Lowering the rolling resistance allows the tire to decrease the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emission levels. This results in a fuel conscious driving experience.

The tread ensured surface contact at all times, boosting the steering responsiveness and driving stability. This promotes a secure steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the tire. The footprint's notch and sipe pattern allows the tire to reduce the braking distance. They generate friction in order to boost the braking power, further ensuring the driver's better control over the vehicle.

The ControlContact Tour A/S Plus upgrades the comfort levels. The tread design features a variable pitch placement which effectively reduces the road noise levels. The tread pattern generates a sound-cancelling frequency that negates the sound waves. As a result, the tire lowers the road noise levels reaching the vehicle's cabin. This promotes a quiet performing ability.
