The ContiRoadAttack 2 Gran Turismo touring sport tire will be original equipment on the new BMW R 1200 RT. Heavyweight touring motorcycles like the BMW pose a particular set of challenges for tires, which is why Continental engineers in Korbach have included the ContiRoadAttack 2 Gran Turismo especially for this vehicle class in the product range. The tire's most outstanding characteristic is the innovative structure of the carcass. A reinforced design with a second carcass layer delivers enhanced stability and easy handling for heavyweight bikes. Wear resistance was also improved, and the tire mileage is now even better. A spin on the new tires drives home to any biker the technical refinement of the ContiRoadAttack 2 Gran Turismo Easy handling, safe driving control, and clear feedback are all the result of Continental's motorcycle tire development.

A I Cipher Automotive Patent Trends 2019 provides a strategic overview of patented technologies in Foreword the sector. Patent intelligence is critical at a time when there is an accelerating shifrom conventional technologies to connectivity, autonomy, shared services and electrification. It is not only the OEMs and their suppliers who are investing billions in automotive R&D, but an entire network of technology companies and a vast swathe of start-ups that are now able to participate at a time when barriers to entry have been lowered. These dynamics are placing increasing pressure on legal, intellectual property and R&D teams alike. We have now reached the point where there are over two million new patents published a year, and it is harder than ever to understand whether the patents you own are the ones that truly serve your business objectives. Advances in AI have made it possible to access information about who owns patented technology. The analysis of technologies and companies in the pages that follow were generated in less than 4 hours - by a machine that does not tire, drink coffee or take holidays.
