Continental has introduced CrossContact AX6 SUV tyres considering the evolving SUV culture and rising demand for SUVs in India.

Continental CrossContact AX6 are claimed to deliver a comfortable and quiet ride even in challenging road condition with shorter braking distance on wet roads.

The open tread pattern provides maximized edges and contact area, helping in additional off-road traction. There's also traction grooves with gripping teeth that prevent the loose surface sliding through the tread grooves.

Additionally, large tread blocks and tough tread compound minimize stone retention and resist cutting and chipping. The design also features noise blockers on the shoulder of tyres to block sound waves.

Press Release:
Continental Tires, the leading premium tyre manufacturer, introduces its new range of CrossContact AX6 SUV tyres in India. The new innovative all-terrain Generation 6 CrossContact AX6 tyres provide excellent durability, low noise, and tread design engineered for ultimate control and performance on all terrain and wet road conditions.

The SUV sales in the country have been significantly growing in the past few years. As per reports, the share of SUV and crossover sales in total passenger vehicle sales across India was approximately 38 percent in 2021 compared to a mere eight percent in 2001. The shift in consumer preferences has created a demand for high-performance tyres for SUVs in India.

The game-changing and innovative CrossContact AX6 tyres are designed for performance and are perfect for ever-changing road conditions across the country and enable a smooth, quiet and comfortable ride. The tyres ensure grip on loose surfaces like gravel and provide additional traction on off-road surfaces. Further, they offer short braking distances in wet road conditions.

According to Samir Gupta, MD Continental India, “The CrossContact AX6 tyres are designed specifically keeping in mind the various conditions found both on-road and off-road. The tyres are highly suitable for markets like India, which feature various geographies, road conditions, and growing SUV demand. They are a perfect fit for any driver who spends most of their time on the road but requires more traction when heading off the beaten track.”

He further added, “Markets across the globe have widely appreciated the CrossContact AX6 tyres, and we hope to see similar results in India.”

The CrossContact AX6 tyres are available for the latest range of SUVs in India.

Innovation Behind the Tyres
One of the essential factors while off-roading is the traction and grip provided by the tyres. The open tread pattern of the CrossContact AX6 tyres provides maximized edges and contact area, helping in additional off-road traction. The tyres also include traction grooves with gripping teeth that prevent the loose surface sliding through the tread grooves. In addition, thanks to the Silica Tread Compound, the polymer structure that grips on the road give excellent traction and braking on wet and slippery roads. The sipped pattern on the tyres further aid the grip of the tires.

On the other hand, the large tread blocks, and tough tread compound, aid in minimizing the stone retention and resisting cutting and chipping of tyres, which leads to excellent durability and robustness. The innovative design features the noise blockers in the shoulder of the tyre to block sound waves and unnecessary noise generated by the tyres and provide a smooth and quieter ride.
