An addition to the Continental TractorMaster range will be presented at next week’s Agritechnica show. Called the TractorMaster Hybrid, the new tyre comes with built-in pressure sensors. The pressure and temperature information these provide enables operators to adjust tyre pressure to match the task at hand. Continental’s aim is to deliver a tyre that offers traction with lower soil compaction in the field and greater comfort on the road.
The very high flexion (VF) Continental TractorMaster Hybrid was developed at Continental’s R&D centre in Lousado, Portugal – the site where the tyres are also produced – in close cooperation with other Continental research and development units in Europe.
