This can be attributed to the BlackChili compound of the tread, a unique technology from Continental, which precisely matches the adhesion of the asymmetrical tread. This in turn creates a high level of trust in the handling characteristics of the new flagship tyres. When cornering on dry asphalt, the footprint shifts to the outer shoulder, which is designed to transmit the highest forces for stable handling. New “locking elements” in the outer shoulder ensure further stability, which enables only limited movement of the tread, thus offering high ride stability.
