Continental PH Unveils UltraContact UX7: The Ultimate SUV Tire

Continental Tire Philippines launched the UltraContact UX7—a new SUV-specific tire that elevates everyday driving performance. The UltraContact UX7 features the innovative X-Force Macroblocks tread pattern that maximizes the tire’s contact area. By creating a wider footprint, it improves overall handling and stability while evenly distributing force to other parts of the tire for more even wear. The tread design and asymmetric pattern help reduce vibration resonance, resulting in superior low-noise performance. The inner shoulder tread features a highly structured sipe pattern to minimize noise inducing vibrations delivering a quieter and more comfortable ride. The tire itself is constructed using Continental’s Robust360 methodology. The reinforced tread steel wire layer and strong tire design make it highly suitable to handle harsh road conditions, while the Adaptive Diamond Compound helps prolong tire life and improve braking performance even when worn thanks to effective heat transfer. Top Tire Review voted the Continental UltraContact UX7 as 2025/2026 Asia’s Best SUV Tire. During its test, it stopped an impressive 3.3 meters shorter than the competition in wet conditions, while also ranking first in dry braking performance. It was also the quietest tire tested and ranked first for “confidence-inspiring handling in both wet and dry conditions.” JM Far East, Inc., the distributor of Continental tires in the Philippines is making the UltraContact UX7 available through their official Lazada page in a variety of sizes.
