The first e-car tyre
- Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety
- Minimal rolling resistance for highest mileage
- The Renault Twizzy has been the first vehicle equipped with Conti.eContact tyres in 2011. Also the new Volkswagen eGolf is equipped with Conti.eContact
Reduced rolling resistance for highest mileage.
The Conti.eContact features a completely new design. In addition to a larger outer and rim diameter, which allows the same load capacity with reduced tyre width, it has an optimized sidewall flexing zone with less material, optimized tread depth and rigid ribs, as well as a flat contour. Through the resulting flexible sidewall area and reduced tread movement, the tyre offers optimized rolling resistance for highest mileage.
Unrivalled braking performance and low noise emissions.
The tyre's four circumferential grooves offer an even pressure distribution in the footprint. This leads to lower noise emissions. In addition, the high number of lateral sipes and no lateral grooves create a reduced acoustic excitation and an optimal "wiper-effect". Thus, the noise emission is further reduced and the braking distance in the wet shortened. Not only does the tyre's construction reduce noise emissions, but the braking distance in the wet is shortened also.
Aerodynamic sidewall design with golf ball structure.
The sidewall's smooth off-shoulder design, which is aerodynamically optimized, features less edges so as to avoid air turbulence. This results in reduced fuel consumption. The sidewall's aerodynamically optimized design reduces fuel consumption
Driven by innovation
For hybrid vehicles in luxury and mid-sized class
High technology made with craftsmanship
- Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety.
- Reduced rolling resistance, excellent handling and safety thanks to the Green Chilli compound
- Designed for hybrid cars like Opel Ampera, Citroen DS 5 Hybrid, BMW 5 ActiveHybrid , Peugeot 508 Hybrid, Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid or VW Touareg Hybrid
Reduced rolling resistance, excellent handling and safety thanks to the Green Chilli compound.
Continental’s Green Chilli compound reduces the internal friction of the particles and polymers, thus also reducing rolling resistance. This has resulted in the Conti.eContact receiving the EU label grade A for fuel efficiency. In addition, special grip additives lead to improved grip and stable handling. Thanks to its reduced rolling resistance, the Conti.eContact has received the top mark for fuel efficiency. In addition, it boasts improved grip and stable handling.
Improved braking performance in the wet due to HydroSipes.
The HydroSipes, with their optimized “wiper”-effect, diffuse the water film quickly and optimally. Thus, the water
