Shorter
braking distances compared to previous models are obtained thanks to a 3D designed edge to the tyre.

Compared with its predecessor, the Continental WinterContact TS 860 delivers 5 % better
braking on wet roads, and
braking distances are 4 % shorter on ice.
Apparently there is too much travel in the
brake switch and the
distance the switch travels is
compared to other vehicle parameters involve with stability control.
The calibrated
distance selections are on the conservative side as
compared to some other vehicles we've driven, and that's OK — the others tend to follow a bit too closely and have a slight
braking delay.
Additionally, there are user selectable meters for that left - hand screen that measure and report back on how efficiently you're accelerating,
braking, and cruising; display historical driving efficiency; and measure your current range and
compare it with the
distance to your next destination.
Other feature on higher trim levels or available as options include a cross-traffic alert, blind spot warning system that works at extended
distance compared to others, a new generation of the company's exceptional EyeSight system that employs more compact colour cameras for improved poor weather work, the ability to recognize red
brake lights and faster pedestrian detection.
Compared to a traditional system, it ensures better
brake efficiency, shorter
braking distances and prompter
brake response in addition to a more comfortable ride and optimal suspension efficiency.
Compared with passenger vehicles, stopping
distances for trucks are much longer, particularly on wet and slippery roads or if the
brake systems are poorly maintained.
