Continental's EcoContact 6Q is a summer touring tire featuring several new technologies offering substantial improvements in rolling resistance, mileage, steering precision and braking distances.

• Designed to meet stringent safety requirements;
• Ensures shorter braking distances on wet and dry roads;
• Substantial improvements in rolling resistance,

The EcoContact 6Q offers high fuel efficiency, long life and excellent braking and handling performance. Its highly adaptable tread pattern evolves with the road surface, enabling drivers to benefit from a longer life.

In addition, the tread compound created for this purpose reduces friction on the road surface, resulting in less energy loss and lower rolling resistance.

The EcoContact 6Q's modified blocks, sipes and lateral grooves help reduce noise levels in the passenger compartment.

The balanced ratio of ribs to tread grooves channels water into the tread grooves when driving on wet roads, reducing the risk of aquaplaning.

EcoContact 6Q tires feature ContiSeal technology. This is a highly elastic protective layer inside the tire that envelops objects that penetrate the tread, sealing the puncture and preventing air loss. This technology seals punctures even when the object has been removed. Holes up to 5 mm in diameter can be sealed, enabling around 80% of punctures to be repaired immediately.

EcoContact 6Q tires are offered as original equipment for the Volkswagen ID. Buzz.
