"We are excited to introduce CrossContact H/T in India,” Samir Gupta, Managing Director of Continental Tyres India and Head of Central Region BA RE APAC, commented. “With the multipurpose pattern, low road noise, and improved tread life, the product greatly fulfils Indian driver's needs and ensures a safe and comfortable ride across various Indian terrains."

The company claims that the special tread design reduces the noise level inside

To provide additional grip when driving on uneven tracks, the engineers have added "grip teeth" to the tyre's tread grooves. Additionally, the company claims that the special tread design reduces the noise level inside and outside the vehicle by around 10 per cent compared to its predecessor.
