Low Rolling Resistance, Optimal Grip:

How Continental Tires Reduce Environmental Impact

Continental aims to minimize rolling resistance while maximizing grip under all driving conditions. Rolling resistance and grip have a major impact on energy consumption and safety both for tires and the vehicle as a whole. Growing public concern about environmental issues, rising fuel prices and the steadily increasing adoption of electric mobility mean that rolling resistance will remain a critical factor in the future of transportation. For combustion-engine vehicles, tires account for 20 to 30 percent of fuel consumption. For electric vehicles, lower rolling resistance significantly reduces energy use and increases range.
