Continental Tyres has worked with content creator, Erika Crawte, over the past year in the production of a series of information videos aimed at raising the profile of tyres, tyre care and safety, particularly aimed at younger motorists.<\/p>\n

In the latest video collaboration<\/a>, Tom Dennigan of Continental Tyres Ireland, talks to Crawte about all season tyres and how they are specifically made for use in a temperate climate, making them the ideal tyre choice for Irish motorists.<\/p>\n

She quizzed Dennigan on the differences between so called \u2018summer\u2019 tyres and the specially designed all season tyres.<\/p>\n

It is really in the last decade or so that tyre companies have developed all season tyres as a blend of summer and winter tyre technology to create a robust and versatile tyre that performs best in mild moderate weather climatic conditions.<\/p>\n

In the video, Dennigan states: \u201cWhen you consider that all season tyres are specially developed to provide optimum performance, safety and grip in both summer heat and rain, and in mild moderate winter conditions, you realise that they really are the ideal choice for our mild summers and winters where we rarely experience frost, ice and snow, on a par with what they experience in the colder areas of northern Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dennigan explained that summer tyres are designed for use in spring \/ summer or even mild winter conditions but when temperatures are lower than 7\u00b0C, winter tyres are recommended.<\/p>\n

Winter tyres are designed for use in colder and snowy conditions such as in northern or eastern Europe where motorists are used to changing their tyres each winter. Indeed, in some countries, motorists are required by law to run their car on winter tyres once winter arrives.<\/p>\n

All season tyres are designed to be used in a broader range of climate conditions, providing a consistent, safe performance in rain, sun, and light snow \/ winter conditions. They are also EV compatible as evidenced by the EV logo on Continental\u2019s AllSeasonContact 2 range of tyres.<\/p>\n

A key difference with all season tyres is that they have an increased number of tread blocks, edges and sipes as well as an open shoulder. These give all season tyres better grip on wet or snowy roads. In comparison with summer tyres, they also have deeper, wider, and more numerous, channels to disperse water, snow, and slush.<\/p>\n
