Safer braking for compact cars

ContiEcoContact™ 3 is a tire of the ContiEcoContact product line which guarantees safety and efficiency for compact and mid-range cars. Its asymmetrical tread design provides optimal ground contact and therefore shortens the braking distances on wet and dry surfaces. 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.

For compact-class vehicles. Engineered in Germany, Continental offers premium tyres with optimum braking performance and safety. High mileage and low fuel consumption. Trusted by leading car manufacturers, including the models eg. Fiat Grande Punto, Ford Fiesta and VW Polo.

Highlights:

• Reduces braking distances on both wet and dry roads by up to one car's length
• Extremely good traction, particularly when cornering on wet roads
• High mileage and low fuel consumption

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

NA-1 adopts uniquely asymmetric pattern design. The inside pattern stresses on drainage performance. Larger void ratio improves drainage performance on wet roads. The enlarged third section of tread radius lessen contact pressure of tread shoulder, and further reduce the noise generated from the lateral grooves on tread shoulder.

Light-weight profile and narrow tread width design reduce rolling resistance. The outside pattern emphasizes on maneuverability, The larger pattern blocks on tread shoulder offers better cornering handling. Noise prevention bar on the lateral grooves of outside tread shoulder block airflow in the grooves to reduce the derived noise. Chamfered groove wall design scarifies the water film for getting better wet grip.

Good all round! And value for money

For compact-class and middle-class vehicles. Performance, steering precision, long service life. Thanks to minimal wear you can be sure to go further – with regard to mileage as well as superb driving comfort. The Brillantis 2 provides the perfect combination of economy and long service life. Balanced driving characteristics and a precise steering response make this tire a good all-round solution.

The Brillantis 2 features:

• High mileage performance
• Greater safety
• Increased aquaplaning safety
• Short braking distances
• Fits perfectly for example to Skoda Citigo, VW Golf VII and Renault Mégane

Technical details:

• Flat contour, good ground pressure distribution
• High mileage performance forprolonged driving fun
• Pleasantly low rolling noise

High mileage.
The flat contour of the Brillantis 2 evenly distributes the ground pressure. This increases mileage.

Greater safety during critical steering manoeuvres.
The asymmetrical tread with a solid outer shoulder gives the tyre good transverse rigidity in the outer shoulder blocks. The result: greater safety for critical steering manoeuvres.

Greater protection against aquaplaning and shorter braking distances on wet roads.
Continuous lateral grooves on the inside and narrow grooves in the blocks allow water to flow away freely. This increases aquaplaning prevention and shortens the braking distances on wet roads.

Low rolling noise.
The reduced width of grooves in the shoulder area and a lower volume of transverse grooves make road noise pleasantly quiet.

Comfort and safety across the entire range
Developed for compact- and middle-class vehicles and SUVs.
Outstanding aquaplaning safety and ideal comfort.
Fits perfectly for example to Ford Fiesta, Renault Twingo and Alfa Romeo Mito.

High aquaplaning safety
The new RainExpert 3 has a tread structure based on the shark skin.
This special tread minimises water turbulence and channels water away from the tread more quickly.
This means the tyre provides a high level of protection against aquaplaning.

Short braking distances on wet and dry roads
The tyre tread grips the road surface perfectly, establishing strong contact.
This extra adhesion leads to short stopping distances on dry and wet roads.

Low rolling resistance on any road
With the RainExpert 3 the tread surface is used to optimum effect in contact with the road.
This leads to reduced loss of friction, resulting in lower rolling resistance on all road surfaces and reduced wear.

Cinturato P4 is the new balanced performance tyre. The new tread compound allows a long life duty. Optimized pressure distribution in carcass offers a more effectively distributed ground-pressure in the contact patch, optimizes traction and grip at all speeds. The new pattern reduces noises and enhance comfort. Advanced tread stress relief reducing noise.

Tread pattern:

Asymmetric tread design for enhanced grip on curve and high cornering force in all weather conditions. Larger tread blocks on the outer portion for increased stability during cornering, and smaller inner blocks to dissipate water.

Continuous longitudinal rib provides uniform and constant rubber-to-asphalt contact even at high speed enhancing driving stability. The inside shoulder design takes over on wet surfaces where the larger number of grooves breaks up the film of water and evacuates it through wide longitudinal channels.

The fuel-saving tyre for long life and confident wet or dry handling

The new Goodyear EfficientGrip Compact combines high mileage and fuel efficiency with shorter braking distances in wet or dry.

Environmentally friendly. A stiffer tread design reduces rolling resistance, resulting in lower CO2 emissions, while regular wear means longer tyre life and less waste generated.

Shorter braking distances on wet and dry roads. A new tread design features dual wide grooves, extra large sipes and multiple biting edges to cut through surface water for improved braking in the wet.

Better resistance to aquaplaning. A rounder cavity shape stops the accumulation of water in front of the tyre to help prevent aquaplaning.

Improved fuel efficiency and mileage. Advances in tyre components and construction reduce overall tyre weight by 5%* for improved rolling resistance, while optimised pressure distribution promotes even tyre wear.

FuelSaving Technology

Better fuel efficiency and value By improving manufacturing materials and techniques, Goodyear have shaved 5%* off the tyre's weight. This reduces rolling resistance, so you'll save on fuel and enjoy better mileage. Improved pressure distribution across the tyre means you'll also benefit from more even wear across the treads.

Environmentally friendly A lower rolling resistance also makes the tyre more eco-friendly, as its lower fuel consumption means less CO2 emissions. Because it wears evenly, the tyre will also need to be replaced less frequently, which helps reduce waste.

Improved braking in all conditions Extra wide grooves and plenty of sharp biting edges for slicing through surface water feature on the EfficientGrip Compact's new tread design, to deliver shorter braking distances in both rainy and dry weather.

Aquaplaning resistance Feel safe on the road in all weathers with tyres designed to reduce aquaplaning. Rounder cavity shapes prevent water from building up in front of the tyre, to reduce the risk of aquaplaning.

*Compared to DuraGrip predecessor.

• A good balance for comfort and stability
• A good balance for quietness and aquaplaning
• A good balance for performance and mileage

A bigger contact patch delivers more stability and enhanced road feedback, allowing tires to respond quickly and precisely.Benefits Increased stability and steering precision; reduced heel and toe wear; excellent cornering stability and precision; superior dry grip.

Multi Radius Tread (MRT). MRT designs employ ten different radii and are therefore more precise. This results in highly effective pressure deployment on the road contact patch. The effect is smoother transitions from straight to corner, leading to more precise and progressive reactions.Benefits Significantly better control over the evolution of the footprint in all driving conditions; responsive wet and dry handling; increased cornering control.
