"Ultra Contact UX7" is a high-performance summer tire developed with a focus on safety, durability, and quietness to meet the needs of SUV drivers. It provides stable performance from urban roads to suburban roads and is designed to effectively support the unique load of SUVs.
X-Force Macroblocks, the core technology of "Ultra Contact UX7," maximizes the ground surface to realize improved handling and driving stability in various road conditions such as corner sections, uneven roads, and gravel roads. The "Adaptive Diamond Compound" is applied with a special silica-based combination that converts kinetic energy to an optimal level, shortening the braking distance on both wet and dry roads. In addition, the "Aqua Channel" improves drainage speed with its own tube structure to increase the stability of driving on rainy roads.
The "Ultra Contact UX7" is applied with the "Robust360 Construction" design method, which protects tires during road shock absorption to minimize shape deformation and strengthen straight stability. In addition, in addition to a solid carcass structure that reduces the risk of damage, the polymer chain contained in the "Diamond Compound" is firmly engaged to increase wear performance and prevent damage such as tearing and rubber falling off. Through this, 'Ultra Contact UX7' provides enhanced durability and long life in various driving environments.
As the supply of electric SUVs has recently expanded and engine noise of electric vehicles has decreased, tire sounds generated during driving have become relatively more prominent. "Ultra Contact UX7" optimized noise reduction performance by minimizing vibration with a precision cutting tread design. In addition, the "Noisebreaker 3.0" technology distributes sound waves to reduce noise transmitted to the interior of the vehicle and provide a more pleasant driving environment.
Continental tires laid the foundation for further expanding the customer base in the SUV market, which has seen explosive growth in recent years, said Dalibor Kalina, Asia-Pacific regional general manager for Continental replacement tires. This product has a design optimized for SUVs, as well as performance that can range from urban driving to daily off-road driving when commuting, he said.
Ultra Contact UX7' will start selling in Korea on June 16. It comes in a variety of sizes from 17 inches to 22 inches, and can be installed on a wide range of vehicles, including crossover, mid-sized SUVs, and premium SUVs.
