Continental  ContiVanContact 200

Reduction in braking distance. Safety. And even more efficiency.

The ContiVanContact™ 200 is a transporter specialist that has been designed for use in Western and Central Europe. With its sipes in the center of the tread and its grooves, it delivers safety even when driving and braking on rain-soaked roads. Its macro block profile and sturdy tread center deliver precise handling even under heavy loads – on top of which the tire also helps to save fuel thanks to a 15% reduction in rolling resistance (in comparison to the predecessor model). Straight away from the start of production, Continental will produce ten sizes that are suitable for rim diameters ranging from 15 to 16 inches and approved for speeds of up to 210 km/h.

For transporters and vans. Efficiency and safety for daily use. Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety. High level of efficiency thanks to higher mileage. Trusted by leading car manufacturers, including for example the vehicle models Fiat Ducato, Iveco Daily and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter.

Highlights

• Safe journey thanks to shorter braking distances on wet roads
• Safe handling in all situations, even under heavy loads
• Considerably reduced rolling resistance for lower fuel consumption and greater efficiency

Technical details:

Safe journey thanks to shorter braking distances on wet roads. New aqua grooves in the shoulder and sipes in the centre of the pattern create a windscreen wiper effect through the sipe edges. The result: vastly improved water dispersion for safe wet braking.

Safe handling in all situations, even under heavy loads. Thanks to the macro block tread pattern, there is improved contact with the road, and the pattern stabilisers increase the stability and rigidity of the tread pattern. The result: optimum driving performance.

Considerably reduced rolling resistance for lower fuel consumption and greater efficiency. A full silica compound with specially adapted polymers leads to reduced energy loss during the deformation of the tyre thanks to strong binding of the polymer chains to the silica. The effect: reduced rolling resistance for higher efficiency.
