Continental CrossContact LX20 EcoPlus Tires
The Continental CrossContact LX20 EcoPlus is a touring, all season tire made for SUVs.
The tire improves the all season traction. It utilizes a special compound blend of Tg-F polymer and +Silane additives and a detailed tread design to increase the dry, wet and winter surface grip. This durable compound maintains the tire’s flexibility with stronger rubber materials in versatile temperatures. The siping detail, the optimized groove pattern and the stabilized tread blocks of the tread design on the other hand firmly grip the road surface with additional biting edges. The zigzag circumferential grooves and the optimized lateral groove placement actively combat hydroplaning with their stronger water and slush dispersing capability.
The flat footprint and the ideal tread design enhance the controllability. They ensure the tire’s continuous surface contact throughout its performance, which greatly boosts the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In other words, the better road contact ensures the tire’s faster and more precise steering response to the driver’s instructions, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the model. This combination enables the driver to confidently maneuver the vehicle at all times.
The model was designed with the special EcoPlus technology. This technology uses the durable compound blend and the stronger all weather traction to promote a fuel efficient drive. The compound keeps the tire cool during its performance by resisting heat build-up along the tread area. This is combined with the stronger traction which eases the pressure off the tire, minimizing the overall rolling resistance. In this manner, the tire significantly lowers the vehicle’s needed fuel consumption in order to keep the tires in motion, while it also reduces its CO2 emissions. This results in a fuel and environmentally conscious driving experience.
The stronger compound blend and the lowered rolling resistance elongate the model’s usability. They prevent premature wear formations by easing the driving pressure off the tire and keeping the tire cool during its performance. The tread design also allows the model to improve the tread life. The tread prevents irregular wear formations by evenly distributing the driving pressure along the tread area. This enhances the tire’s service life significantly.
The Continental CrossContact LX20 EcoPlus increases the driving comfort levels during its performance. The enhanced driving stability and the stronger internal structure work together to maintain the road contact. As a result, the tire can closely follow the road surface throughout the drive, which allows the model to absorb the shock of driving. This prevents the formation of road vibrations, which guarantees a comfortable and enjoyable performing capability.
