Technical details

Reduced braking distances on both wet and dry roads.

The asymmetric tread design provides optimal ground contact and therefore shortens the braking distances on wet and dry surfaces.

Extremely good traction, particularly when cornering on wet roads.

The flexible silica compound allows a strong connection between tire and surface so that a high degree of traction can be guaranteed on wet and dry surfaces. Grip edges and incisions in the outside tire shoulder provide additional traction, especially in wet curves.

High mileage and low fuel consumption.

A bionic contour minimises tread pattern deformation when the tire is rolling, therefore lowering fuel consumption and giving the tire a longer service life.

EU Tire Label

Wet grip

The wet grip rating indicates how well the tire will perform in wet conditions, with performance graded from class A down to class E. A high grade means short braking distances on wet roads.

Fuel efficiency

Reduced rolling resistance saves fuel and cuts CO₂ emissions. Class A tires deliver the best fuel efficiency, with fuel consumption increasing for each subsequent class through to E.

Noise level

This is the external rolling noise generated by the tire, measured in decibels. The label shows the noise level rated in classes from A to C.

Additional pictograms for snow and icy conditions

In addition to these three label values, there are also pictograms − if applicable − relating to performance in severe snow conditions (3PMSF) and/or grip in icy conditions (the latter applies to passenger car tires only).

With the EU label generator, you can access the specific label values for your Continental tires.
