The high-traction expert for safety. Robust and safe with excellent grip. For winter use on small commercial vehicles and vans.
Commercial traffic faces constant time and economic pressures. In turn these pressures create great demand on the features of van tires. In wintry conditions, the right winter tire can not only help make driving with passengers and cargo safer, but also minimize the risk of failed or late deliveries.
The VancoWinter™ line traditionally sets the benchmark of optimal winter safety and performance for vans. The product line has proven itself on numerous occasions with tests by the media and in day-to-day application by end users.
The VancoWinter™ 2 is the new high-traction expert for safe transport of goods and people through the winter. Its genuine winter performance meets the requirements of the snowflake marking as provided by RMA testing standards.
Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety. Optimised braking effect on snow and ice. Trusted by leading car manufacturers, including for example the models Iveco Daily, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Mercedes-Benz Vito/Viano.
Your Benefits:
Optimised braking effect on snow and ice
Car-orientated handling on snow
Cost-effective even in winter
Excellent protection against aquaplaning and safe wet handling
Robust construction
Optimised braking effect on snow and ice. When braking, the tyre has a high natural frequency within the compound. Multiple offset edges cause an ice-scraper effect for outstanding braking performance on wintry roads.
Car-oriented handling on snow. Gripping edges interlock with the snow to provide handling characteristics similar to a car on snow, wet and dry roads and during low temperature.
Excellent resistance to aquaplaning and safe wet handling. Open shoulders with lateral grooves support the water drainage in lateral direction, thus providing excellent protection from aquaplaning in wet and slushy conditions.
The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher. (Source: European Commission Impact Assessment * when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note: Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).* *Source: wdk Economic Association of the German Rubber Industry eV
Please note: Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016. B The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016. C The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.
