Specifications

Technical information

Our classification not an official manufacturer classification

Focus: Eco-standard

The middle ground between economy and an ordinary tyre — Continental ECOCONTACT 6 sits exactly here. The manufacturer aims to keep fuel consumption low without paying for it with the weaker wet behaviour typical of purely economical models. In practice it is a tyre for drivers who cover a lot of kilometres and do not want to give up much safety along the way.
