Continental All-Season and Winter Tires Impress in German Auto Zeitung Test

Hanover, Germany, September 25, 2024. The AllSeasonContact 2 and WinterContact TS 870 P have impressed in the latest tire test of the German trade magazine Auto Zeitung. The new all-season tire from Continental won the test, while the WinterContact TS 870 P was named "highly recommended" and "fuel-saving recommendation" among the winter tires tested.

The Continental AllSeasonContact 2 was the most convincing tire in the Auto Zeitung test: "Conti's all-season tire is the most economical and the fastest in slalom. It has good cornering stability, remains stable on the track and is still agile". The all-rounder performed well in all categories, on snow-covered, dry and wet roads, and was also the most energy-efficient, earning it the editors' "fuel-saving recommendation". 

Continental launched the AllSeasonContact 2 last year. The premium manufacturer has succeeded in significantly increasing mileage compared to the previous model and at the same time reducing rolling resistance without compromising on safety. This makes it an ideal solution for cars and SUVs with electric and combustion engines.

The WinterContact TS 870 P from Continental impressed in the test with good results on wet roads and a short braking distance on snow. On dry roads, Continental's latest winter tyre came out on top: "With the best rolling resistance and the shortest braking distance among the winter professionals, the Conti secured the chapter victory. Good comfort characteristics". As the most energy-efficient winter tire, the WinterContact TS 870 P also received the "Fuel Saving Recommendation" award. 

WinterContact TS 870 P is suitable for mid-range cars and SUVs. It offers precise and safe handling on typical winter roads as well as on dry and wet roads. Its low rolling resistance makes it an energy-efficient winter solution for electric vehicles, but also helps internal combustion engine drivers to save fuel.
