Foam-in-Tyre Technology (FIT) Car interior noise has 3 main causes: Wind noise (created by air-flow at high speed) Engine noise Tyre noise: Tread/block road rumble. “Airpumping” also known as “groove resonance” , where the grooves are compressed and then released again. (Structural) Vibrations of the tyre/carcass. Foamin Tyre(FIT) Tyre noise 'Why Foam-in-Tyre?' Tyre noise is mainly transmitted by: Airborne noise: Noise waves transmitted through air Body noise: Transmission by vehicle suspension One of the biggest noise sources, is the so-called Cavity Resonance which is transmitted into the car as body noise because of the axle construction. Foamin Tyre (FIT) Technology 'How does Foamin Tyre work' Technology: Once the tyre has been heated, a foam strip is fitted to the inner liner. This reduces tyre (carcass) noise considerably. Principle of operation: Elimination of resonance peaks. Effect: Reduction of interior car noise by a number of dB, to half of the tyre noise. Advantages: Relatively cost efficient Stable through the full life of the tyre Light enough not to influence running performance, roll resistance or high speed efficiency Currently available in Summer and Winter, also as All Season and ROF later. Can be repaired Effect of the tyre on noise perception Sounds are transmitted by 2 main mechanisms: By air movement (Air resonance): The air molecules are stimulated to vibrate (wave form). By structural resonance (Body resonance): Vibrations are transmitted by the vehicle structure. A large part of inerior car noise is due to resonance caused by vibration of the tyres. This is transmitted to the inside of the car via the structure (body resonance). Counter measures taken at noise source, in this case, at the tyre, are easier and more effective than they would be at other car components, e.g. at the drive train or the body. The solution How can the vibrations in the tyres be reduced? Fitting a foam strip to the inner liner of the tyre helps to markedly reduce the tyre (carcass) noise. Reduced resonance in peak range by up to 11dB(A) This makes a reduction of interior car noise of up to 3 - 4dB(A), possible. This means that it is only half as loud in the car as it would have been with normal tyres.

Continental Conti.eContact You drive more miles per volt, we enjoy less emissions per mile For electric vehicles in compact class The first e-car tyre Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety Minimal rolling resistance for highest mileage The Renault Twizzy has been the first vehicle equipped with Conti.eContact tyres in 2011. Also the new Volkswagen eGolf is equipped with Conti.eContact Reduced rolling resistance for highest mileage. The Conti.eContact features a completely new design. In addition to a larger outer and rim diameter, which allows the same load capacity with reduced tyre width, it has an optimized sidewall flexing zone with less material, optimized tread depth and rigid ribs, as well as a flat contour. Through the resulting flexible sidewall area and reduced tread movement, the tyre offers optimized rolling resistance for highest mileage. Unrivalled braking performance and low noise emissions. The tyre's four circumferential grooves offer an even pressure distribution in the footprint. This leads to lower noise emissions. In addition, the high number of lateral sipes and no lateral grooves create a reduced acoustic excitation and an optimal 'wiper-effect'. Thus, the noise emission is further reduced and the braking distance in the wet shortened. Not only does the tyre's construction reduce noise emissions, but the braking distance in the wet is shortened also. Aerodynamic sidewall design with golf ball structure. The sidewall's smooth off-shoulder design, which is aerodynamically optimized, features less edges so as to avoid air turbulence. This results in reduced fuel consumption. The sidewall's aerodynamically optimized design reduces fuel consumption Driven by innovation For hybrid vehicles in luxury and mid-sized class High technology made with craftsmanship Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety. Reduced rolling resistance, excellent handling and safety thanks to the Green Chilli compound Designed for hybrid cars like Opel Ampera, Citroen DS 5 Hybrid, BMW 5 ActiveHybrid , Peugeot 508 Hybrid, Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid or VW Touareg Hybrid Reduced rolling resistance, excellent handling and safety thanks to the Green Chilli compound.Continental’s Green Chilli compound reduces the internal friction of the particles and polymers, thus also reducing rolling resistance. This has resulted in the Conti.eContact receiving the EU label grade A for fuel efficiency. In addition, special grip additives lead to improved grip and stable handling. Thanks to its reduced rolling resistance, the Conti.eContact has received the top mark for fuel efficiency. In addition, it boasts improved grip and stable handling. Improved braking performance in the wet due to HydroSipes.The HydroSipes, with their optimized “wiper”-effect, diffuse the water film quickly and optimally. Thus, the water is drained away better between the tread blocks and the road surface. This leads to shorter braking distances and better handling in the wet, as well as better wet performance even at higher speeds. The tyre is able to optimally diffuse and drain water away, leading to shorter braking distances and better handling in the wet, as well as better wet performance even at higher speeds. Reduced wind and rolling resistance given by AeroFlex, a more flexible and aerodynamic sidewall.Thanks to its unique design, AeroFlex has fewer edges, thus avoiding air turbulence. At the same time, the sidewall area is more flexible, meaning that less energy is lost when deflecting or rebounding. All this leads to reduced fuel consumption and optimized rolling resistance. Thanks to the tyre's unique design, air turbulence is easily avoided and less energy is lost when deflecting or rebounding. All this leads to reduced fuel consumption and optimized rolling resistance Reduced interior noise through the ContiSilent™ technology.Through a polyurethane foam attached to the inner surface of the tread area, the ContiSilent™ technology is able to absorb vibrations inside the tyre, thus transmitting fewer to the chassis. In turn, this means that the interior noise is significantly reduced. The Conti.eContact is able to absorb vibrations inside the tyre, meaning that the interior noise is significantly reduced.

A bigger contact patch delivers more stability and enhanced road feedback, allowing tires to respond quickly and precisely.Benefits Increased stability and steering precision; reduced heel and toe wear; excellent cornering stability and precision; superior dry grip. Multi Blade System. Winter driving conditions can vary greatly. From cold and dry to snow or sleet, these conditions make very high demands on a tyre. Dunlop’s multiple blade system meets this challenge head on, with different types of blades for varying winter road conditions. Benefits Consistent performance in various winter conditions. Functional Polymers. Functional Polymers in the tread compound produce enhanced performance characteristics at low temperatures, improving road adhesion when winter temperatures plummet.Benefits Exceptional grip at low temperatures. Multi Radius Tread (MRT). MRT designs employ ten different radii and are therefore more precise. This results in highly effective pressure deployment on the road contact patch. The effect is smoother transitions from straight to corner, leading to more precise and progressive reactions.Benefits Significantly better control over the evolution of the footprint in all driving conditions; responsive wet and dry handling; increased cornering control. Foam-in-Tyre Technology (FIT) Car interior noise has 3 main causes: Wind noise (created by air-flow at high speed) Engine noise Tyre noise: Tread/block road rumble. “Airpumping” also known as “groove resonance” , where the grooves are compressed and then released again. (Structural) Vibrations of the tyre/carcass. Foamin Tyre(FIT) Tyre noise 'Why Foam-in-Tyre?' Tyre noise is mainly transmitted by: Airborne noise: Noise waves transmitted through air Body noise: Transmission by vehicle suspension One of the biggest noise sources, is the so-called Cavity Resonance which is transmitted into the car as body noise because of the axle construction. Foamin Tyre (FIT) Technology 'How does Foamin Tyre work' Technology: Once the tyre has been heated, a foam strip is fitted to the inner liner. This reduces tyre (carcass) noise considerably. Principle of operation: Elimination of resonance peaks. Effect: Reduction of interior car noise by a number of dB, to half of the tyre noise. Advantages: Relatively cost efficient Stable through the full life of the tyre Light enough not to influence running performance, roll resistance or high speed efficiency Currently available in Summer and Winter, also as All Season and ROF later. Can be repaired Effect of the tyre on noise perception Sounds are transmitted by 2 main mechanisms: By air movement (Air resonance): The air molecules are stimulated to vibrate (wave form). By structural resonance (Body resonance): Vibrations are transmitted by the vehicle structure. A large part of inerior car noise is due to resonance caused by vibration of the tyres. This is transmitted to the inside of the car via the structure (body resonance). Counter measures taken at noise source, in this case, at the tyre, are easier and more effective than they would be at other car components, e.g. at the drive train or the body. The solution How can the vibrations in the tyres be reduced? Fitting a foam strip to the inner liner of the tyre helps to markedly reduce the tyre (carcass) noise. Reduced resonance in peak range by up to 11dB(A) This makes a reduction of interior car noise of up to 3 - 4dB(A), possible. This means that it is only half as loud in the car as it would have been with normal tyres.
