Outstanding grip through advanced sipe technologies
The VikingContact 8 features Three-Layer-Sipes technology combined with 3D-sipes and snow edges, delivering exceptional grip in all winter conditions. These multi-level sipes enhance traction on packed snow, ice, and even slush. The innovative tread design evolves with tire wear, ensuring consistent performance throughout the tire’s lifespan.

Improved energy efficiency with high-tech rubber compound
The new Next-Generation Nordic Tread Compound significantly reduces rolling resistance, helping to extend the range of electric vehicles and reduce fuel consumption for combustion engines. This advanced formulation limits tire deformation and minimizes energy loss, offering excellent efficiency in all winter temperatures. The VikingContact 8 is designed to save energy without compromising safety.

Quiet driving comfort, even in extreme conditions
Thanks to an optimized tread design, the VikingContact 8 delivers a quiet ride at all speeds. The interaction between the tire footprint and lateral grooves has been carefully refined to reduce road noise. This is especially valuable for electric vehicles, which benefit from noticeably lower noise levels. The tire is rated “A” for noise across all sizes and proudly displays the EV-compatible symbol, confirming its suitability for electric, hybrid, and combustion vehicles alike.
