ContiEcoContact™ 5

For safety and the environment.

The popularity of the ContiEcoContact™ 5 is simply explained: high braking safety and short braking distances on wet roads, with optimised rolling resistance - for reduced fuel consumption. Developed by Continental in close co-operation with Europe’s leading car manufacturers, this groundbreaking tyre is not only aimed at motorists who regularly drive longer distances, but also at those who are very more mindful of both fuel consumption and the environment.

To achieve the balance of high grip / shorter stopping distances with reduced rolling resistance / less fuel consumption, a completely new approach to product manufacture was required. Design, contour, compound and tread pattern concepts were all re-examined, ultimately leading to a tyre that delivers reduced CO2 emissions and lower fuel consumption, while still delivering excellent braking performance on both dry and wet roads.
