Innovative Continental PremiumContact 7 Now Available in SA

South African motorists can now experience the cutting-edge technology of the Continental PremiumContact 7 tire, which has made its debut in the local market. This premium tire promises to elevate driving safety on both dry and wet roads, presenting a significant stride forward in automotive innovation. Impressively, independent tire tests have reaffirmed the extraordinary safety standards embedded within Continental’s latest flagship offering. Renowned publications such as the British Auto Express and online magazine Tyre Reviews have both bestowed the PremiumContact 7 with top honors in their summer tire assessments. German heavyweight Auto Bild has also dubbed it as nothing short of “exemplary”.

The resounding surge in safety owes its credit to a multitude of innovative technologies that have been meticulously integrated into this new model after years of intensive development:

Adaptive tread design for every driving situation

A pinnacle achievement of the PremiumContact 7 is Continental’s novel adaptive tread design, which enables the tire to morph according to the driving circumstances. On wet roads, ingenious shoulder elements facilitate efficient water evacuation through circumferential grooves. Furthermore, the contact patch strategically terminates at the point where water dispersal is most effective, resulting in heightened water expulsion from the tire shoulders. On dry terrains, the contact patch dynamically shifts to the outer shoulder, with the lateral grooves contoured to taper, facilitating an augmented transfer of power to the road.

Individual modifications for every vehicle concept

Acknowledging the diverse spectrum of vehicle weights, sizes, and powertrain configurations, Continental ingeniously tailors the design of the PremiumContact 7 tire to harmonize with distinct vehicle concepts, ensuring an optimum safety quotient. Beyond improvements in rolling resistance and longevity, the adaptability of the PremiumContact 7’s design ensures impeccable grip and abbreviated braking distances, catering to vehicles equipped with a variety of drive systems.

Optimum adhesion even at low temperatures

The performance of each element within a tire’s rubber compound is optimized within a specific temperature range. Continental’s groundbreaking compound formula for the PremiumContact 7 achieves exceptional performance across an extensive gamut of temperatures. Whether during the chillier hours of dawn or the tranquil embrace of night, the tire excels in generating impressive low-temperature grip.
