Description

EcoContact™ 6 – the next standard improved by German technology.

The new Green Chili™ generation features the latest and most advanced compound technology in the Eco range.

Maximum fuel efficiency:

The EcoContact™ 6 strikes an optimal balance between tyre size and components distribution. The high-tech compound provides robust connections between the silica and the rubber. This allows an optimal adaptation to varying road conditions, which ultimately improves the tyre’s rolling resistance and fuel consumption.

Enhanced mileage due to new Green Chili™ 2.0 compound:

The advanced Green Chili™ 2.0 compound adapts to the road surface, which leads to a reduction in the rubber loss throughout its life cycle. As a result, mileage is increased.

Optimised grip and handling experience:

The EcoContact™ 6 offers a tailor-made pattern, resulting in the best balance between dry and wet performance. It further increases the safety in handling situations, such as lane changes. And thanks to its innovative asymmetric rib and sipe geometry, the tyre always keeps the contact with the road.

  • Maximum fuel efficiency
  • Fine-tuned grip and handling experience
  • Improved mileage due to new Green Chili™ 2.0 compound

    Mixed feelings after 7,500 km on the Audi A3

    A mixed verdict after 3 months. Braking in the rain lacks the final bit. Dry is decent, wet is average.

    Continental 225/55 R16: volle Punktzahl nach 800 km

    Ich fahre die Continental jetzt 6 Wochen und bin rundum zufrieden. Der Rollwiderstand ist spürbar niedrig, mein Verbrauch ist sogar leicht gesunken. Das Abrollgeräusch ist angenehm leise, auch bei Autobahntempo. Bisher rund 800 km in 6 Wochen gelaufen. Preis-Leistung stimmt absolut.

    Continental nearly perfect on the VW Passat

    I'm satisfied, though I hoped for slightly more in places. Wear is fair, a little faster than premium brands. Comfort is good, only the odd pothole sends a jolt through. On my VW Passat with mixed use in town.

  • Maëlle Legrand06.10.2026
    3.0 / 5

    Sentiments mitigés après 200 km sur ma Kia Sportage

    Acceptable pour le prix, mais pas davantage. Le bruit de roulement est moyen, ça se sent sur les longs trajets. Sur le sec correct, sur le mouillé moyen. Le bilan après 6 semaines et environ 200 km.

  • Jonas Dam30.09.2026
    5.0 / 5

    Fra de første kilometer føltes de rigtige. I sving forbliver de helt forudsigelige. Ingen aquaplaning i kraftig regn, gode reserver. Kørt på en Mercedes A-klasse, overvejende nogle gange med trailer.
