Premium tire manufacturer and technology company Continental has developed the Conti EcoPlus HT3+ long-haul tire, in which innovative rubber compound compounds and the most modern production technologies are tested and approved. Designed with the goal of real fuel economy and guaranteed high mileage, these truck tires reduce the costs of fleets by making long-distance transportation more sustainable.
The Conti EcoPlus tire series offers a reliable option for fleet operators who want to minimize their fleet costs and CO2 emissions. Designed with the goal of real fuel savings and guaranteed high mileage, these truck tires contribute to more sustainable logistics in long-haul transportation. This third generation eco-friendly tire series from Continental; It is completed with the new Conti EcoPlus HT3+ trailer tire, following the Conti EcoPlus HS3+ and Conti EcoPlus HD3+ tires renewed last year. The premium tire manufacturer has further improved the Conti EcoPlus HT3+ long-haul tire, in which innovative rubber compound compositions and the most modern production technologies are tested and approved. Both the rolling resistance and mileage of the tyre have been optimized. This provides excellent coatingability and outstanding fuel efficiency. In addition, the new 3PMSF marking shows the tire's safety information in all weather conditions, including harsh snowy or icy road conditions. The tire provides the best possible grip on wet roads, required by EU tire label Class A.
High mileage: Fuel efficient trailer tire
The renewed Conti EcoPlus HT3+ stands out as a long-haul tire that provides exceptional fuel efficiency to fleet customers. With its double-layered tread structure, rubber compounds developed for both the tread and the cheek area increase the mileage and reduce the rolling resistance even more. The new tread geometry of the tire, which has been improved with the "Fuel Saving Edge" technology and the optimized sipe pattern, distributes the pressure more effectively along the tread, providing even wear. Thus, one-sided wear or damage to the carcass is prevented and the retreadability of the tire is preserved.
Hinnerk Kaiser, Continental Tire Development Manager, said: “With the launch of the Conti EcoPlus HT3+, we have completed our product line for fleet operators who care about emissions. “This tough, long-lasting and fuel-efficient truck tire helps our fleet customers make their long-haul logistics operations more sustainable.”
Lower fuel consumption: Higher fleet efficiency with improved environmental footprint
Fuel-efficient commercial vehicles both reduce fleet costs and are environmentally friendly. The effect of rolling resistance on fuel consumption can be up to 30 percent, so it is a key factor for tire developers. Rolling resistance is also one of the parameters the VECTO simulator uses to calculate the fuel efficiency of a truck. VECTO and the EU regulation regulating emission performance continue to be important agenda topics for the transport sector, which aims to achieve a serious reduction in CO2030 emissions by 2. Continental has developed a CO2 and fuel calculator based on the VECTO simulation tool. This calculator allows fleet operators to see how much they can reduce their emissions and fuel consumption by choosing the right Continental tire.
