Tyres for trucks have to fulfil specific requirements that differ substantially from tyres for use with ordinary passenger cars. Their performance is affected not only by the loads they have to carry, but also by the distances they have to travel. The Conti Hybrid HT3 radically questions and redefines the entire construction of a truck tyre. The result is an innovative rib tread pattern that leads to many advantages in terms of driving performance. Featuring narrow circumferential grooves and a high rubber volume, this tyre delivers not only large wear volume but also, at the same time, low rolling resistance. This results in high mileage and improved durability. In addition, the innovative properties also lead to lower fuel consumption, which in turn ensures a higher economic efficiency for fleet operators. Furthermore, designed with fine lateral cuts, the tyre also features enhanced safety and provides good grip on wet roads. Another advantage is the low profile of the wide base tyre, which results in a smaller outer diameter so that the loading surface can be deeper. Thus, the tyre also meets the high demands of fleets using trailers with a higher load volume. Based on a novel approach, the Conti Hybrid HT3 truck tyre thus emerged with a path-breaking quality – it sets new standards in its field.
