So, all-season tires blend summer and winter tire technology to create one robust and versatile tire that performs best in mild weather conditions. Let’s take a closer look at this tire all-rounder!
Seasonal tires offer the best performance in the conditions for which they were specifically designed. But for many car owners, changing tires every six months can be inconvenient. So, if you drive in a moderate climate, all-season tires could be an option for you. They can be fitted once and then simply remain on the car come rain or shine, or even a light dusting of snow.
Continental’s all-season tires combine characteristics of both summer and winter tires, offering a hybrid solution that gives drivers the best of both worlds if they don’t drive in extreme weather conditions.
They feature a solid tread depth, which is neither too shallow nor too deep, keeping the driver in full control throughout the whole year.
The adaptive all-season compound gives the driver top notch performance on snowy and wet winter roads. Thanks to a flexible tread design consisting of open shoulders with minimum sipes, all-season tires provide good braking performance in dry and wet summery roads too.
Overall, the key thing to remember is that summer and winter tires are specifically tailored to give optimum performance in their designated weather conditions, while all-season tires can comfortably handle all but extreme weather conditions.
For getting around in milder climates, all-season tires could be a more convenient choice. This goes for a variety of vehicles. Whether you’re driving a sedan, a compact class or an SUV, our all-season tires come in compatible sizes.
With improved performance for reduced rolling resistance, our tires offer a significant reduction in fuel consumption which make them a suitable alternative for electric vehicles too.
In some parts of the world, your tires might be required to qualify for the three-peak mountain snowflake symbol. We’ve got you covered there as well. So, while we only recommend all-season tires in mild climates, all of our all-season products are approved for winter use.

Not only will it improve your vehicle's handling, traction and performance for a comfortable drive, it will also help increase the lifespan of the tire.
