Continental has been developing and producing winter tires for 90 years. Named the "Gelände," its first product specifically for the cold season was introduced in 1934. Decades of experience in this field have since paid off: the tread patterns and rubber compounds of today’s winter tires from Continental are perfectly suited to these conditions. Ensuring more grip and shorter braking distances on snow, ice and in the rain. This is evident even at low driving speeds on a full layer of snow.

Seven of the world’s 10 highest-volume producers of battery electric vehicles rely on Continental tires for their original equipment. This is no coincidence, because choosing the right tire for electric vehicles is crucial for efficiency, braking and mileage.

Yesterday, the automobile revolutionized the world. Today, the automobile is being revolutionized. In less than ten years, every second vehicle will be electric. E-vehicles are playing an increasingly important role in the passenger car segment. Low emissions, low operating costs and low noise levels are only a few of the many reasons why the e-mobility trend is becoming increasingly popular. But what does this revolution mean for our tires? Compared to a conventional car, the tire of an e-car is exposed to much heavier loads and must meet complex demands.

Today's plastic waste is tomorrow's production material: Using recycled materials in the design, development and production of premium tires.
