Continental scoops top tyre award
Auto Express has presented Continental with a top award for its ContiSportContact 5 tyre, recognising the product's ability on a number of different platforms.
The new product found itself as the winner of Auto Express' ultimate tyre test, which commends the best performers in the tyre market.
Some of the categories under the ultimate tyre test are performance, quality, safety, desirability and value. The triumph for Continental is set to provide consumers and motoring enthusiasts with confidence when it comes to purchasing the rubber technology.
According to Auto Express, the tyre is particularly well-designed for braking distances, performing well in both the wet and dry conditions and beating many of its competitors when it comes to stopping in the wet.
Brand manager at Continental, Peter Robb, said: “This latest win for the ContiSportContact 5 is an excellent endorsement for our product range and reiterates our investment in research and development, offering maximum safety when pushed to the limit.”
The ContiSportContact 5 is able to offer excellent road grip, as well as improved safety when cornering. Drivers will also benefit from reduced fuel consumption. It is available for 17-inch wheels and upwards for cars, and 18-inch upwards for SUV's.
