Continental Tire the Americas’ Conti Hybrid HD3 has received fuel efficiency verification by the U.S. EPA’s SmartWay program. It is the 20th Continental new and retread product that has received the SmartWay nod.
Conti Hybrid HD3 is a long-haul highway drive tire, and is so named because it "allows drivers to operate in the combined highway and regional application with an excellent combination of long mileage, traction and fuel saving characteristics," CTA said.
The tire is available in sizes 295/75R22.5, 11R22.5 and 11R24.5. Conti Hybrid HD3 will be available as a ContiTread retread product in late 2013, and also will be submitted to SmartWay for verification under the retread technologies program.
