Continental has refined the Conti.eContact tyre, originally launched in 2011 with electric vehicles in mind, to meet the needs of hybrid models.

Leveraging new technologies and processes, this new summer tire is narrower and larger, and is the first from Continental to obtain the top A rating on the EU Tyre Label for both wet grip and rolling resistance, while making no significant compromises in terms of the many other performance parameters.
Continental is offering the Conti.eContact in six sizes for 17 and 18-inch rims, specially designed for models such as the Opel Ampera, BMW 5 ActiveHybrid, Lexus LS 600h and Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid, as well as other cars and SUVs with hybrid drive.
