Buying Winter Rubber? Consider Results From Auto Express

November 9, 2014 by Mr Butterscotch Leave a Comment

Continental has won a coveted award from the UK’s number one weekly selling car magazine, Auto Express, winning the 2014 winter tyre test with the Continental ContiWinterContact TS850.

On the winning performance of the ContiWinterContact TS850, Auto Express said; “A balanced approach to all disciplines delivers success. Continental has got this down to a fine art, and has tasted victory before with its ContiWinterContact TS850. Good all-round performance with few compromises make this a winter tyre winner.”

Building upon the success of its predecessor the ContiWinterContact TS830, this latest addition offers even better grip on typical wintry roads, as well as shorter braking distances in the wet, enhanced handling, extended mileage and a further reduction in rolling resistance, making it an excellent companion for winter driving conditions.

Continental’s latest tyre features a high number of block edges and sipes, helping to increase traction and braking performance on snow and ice. At the same time, more edges are available to transfer lateral forces when negotiating bends or changing lanes at high speed. This ensures perfect handling and outstanding grip even in extreme driving situations.
