Continental’s PremiumContact 7 Comes Top in What Car? Tyre Test

Continental’s PremiumContact 7 recently came first in the What Car? tyre test. With tyres being the only contact between a car and the road, the test aimed to highlight the importance of making the right tyre choice.

The PremiumContact 7 excelled in the braking categories, topping the table in both wet and dry conditions. The tyre also performed well in wet and dry handling and received good feedback when put to the test on track.

“The Continental PremiumContact 7 does a great job of dealing with wet and dry conditions, and standing water. It stopped our test car swiftly and offered an abundance of grip in all situations.” Said What Car? of the tyre. “When it did falter, it did so without drama so the driver could back off the power and regain control.

The PremiumContact 7 is tailor-made for a wide range of vehicle – depending on weight, size and type of drive. Since heavy vehicles require different tyre solutions than light passenger cars, the new premium tyre has been adapted to each vehicle class and is available in tyre sizes from 16 to 21 inches.

The adaptable tread design of the PremiumContact 7 ensures even more stability and ride comfort on both wet and dry roads. The tyre also features a new innovative RedChili compound, with which Continental has succeeded in enabling optimum performance in the widest possible temperature spectrum.

Peter Robb, Marketing Director at Continental said: “We are pleased to see the PremiumContact 7 come out on top in the What Car? Tyre test.  This win adds to the many accolades the tyre has received across Europe since its launch and it is great to see our tyres recognised for their performance and safety.”
