New Continental WinterContact TS 850 P

Continental’s new WinterContact TS 850 P goes on sale across Europe in the autumn. With the new model, Continental has succeeded in significantly enhancing the performance characteristics of the tyre.

The Continental WinterContact TS 850 P betters the performance of its predecessor model in terms of handling on snow-covered and dry roads as well as braking. This is made possible by the new tread design of the asymmetrical winter tyre for the upper mid-range and luxury segments and SUVs.

The Continental WinterContact TS 850 P will gradually replace its predecessors – the ContiWinterContact TS 830 P and the ContiCrossContact Winter – together with its “big brother” the Continental WinterContact TS 850 P SUV.

However, both of these models will still be available in a wide range of sizes. The market leader for winter tyres will offer the new product at the same price level as the predecessor models.
