Description
he Continental ContiSportContact 5 SUV is a premium summer performance tyre designed for SUVs and crossovers, offering enhanced grip, shorter braking distances, and improved handling through its Black Chili tread compound and unique tread pattern. It provides reduced rolling resistance for better fuel efficiency and higher mileage potential, while also being available with ContiSeal and SSR Run-flat technology for added convenience and safety.
Key Features & Benefits
- Enhanced Grip & Handling:The macro-block design on the outer shoulder maximizes road contact for superior grip, leading to improved stability during cornering and acceleration.
- Shorter Braking Distances:The Black Chili compound’s innovative polymers absorb braking frequency, translating to shorter braking distances on both wet and dry surfaces.
- Reduced Rolling Resistance:Long-chain polymers in the compound efficiently release absorbed energy, lowering rolling resistance and resulting in less fuel consumption and lower CO2 emissions.
- High Mileage & Durability:The unique tyre composition and the heat released during operation contribute to the tyre’s ability to run cooler and remain durable, offering a higher mileage potential.
- The ContiSportContact 5 SUV was developed in collaboration with major vehicle manufacturers and is an original equipment (OE) choice for high-performance SUVs from brands like Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche.
Advanced Technologies
- Black Chili Compound:This proprietary technology enhances grip and braking performance by improving energy absorption and heat management within the tyre.
- Available in specific versions, this technology uses reinforced sidewalls to support the tyre’s weight after a puncture, allowing for continued driving without a spare tyre.
- ContiSeal™:This option features a sealant layer inside the tread area that can seal up to 80% of punctures, such as those caused by nails, without the need for immediate roadside changes.
