ProContact with EcoPlus Technology
|
EcoPlus technology consists of two main components: Tg-F Polymers: Temperature activated functional polymers that increase compound bonding thus improving treadwear and fuel efficiency. +Silane: +Silane additives enhance grip on slippery roads, therefore reducing stopping distances.
When Continental Tire’s engineers and chemists embarked on creating the ProContactTM with EcoPlus Technology they focused on saving fuel over the life of the tires. The result is a tire that can save up to 5,150 kilometres of fuel when compared to a leading competitor’s standard tire 1.
In addition to reducing fuel costs, every 4 litres of gas saved also means up to 9 fewer kilograms of CO2 emissions released into the earth's atmosphere making the ProContactTM with EcoPlus Technology a smart buying decision2.
The all-season tire designed to last longer plus more... Premium features designed to enhance driving pleasure are not the only plus for this tire. The ProContactTM with EcoPlus Technology provides a higher mileage warranty with a segment leading 128,000 km limited treadwear warranty, and assures 23% longer treadwear than a leading competitor3. All of that plus...
An emergency stop on a wet, slippery road can be a frightening experience. Tires are the only contact to the road during these adverse road conditions. When compared to a leading competitor, the ProContactTM with EcoPlus Technology stops up to 16 metres shorter4. 1. 5,150 kilometres based on 4% fuel efficiency improvement with 128,00 km treadlife limited warranty. Actual savings vary based on driving techniques, road conditions, tire maintenance and replacement interval. 27.4% rolling resistance improvement based on independent testing Continental ProContactTM with EcoPlus Technology 215/60 R16 95T compared to a leading competitor. 2. 4% fuel savings based on rolling resistance to fuel efficiency ratio within the estimated range of fueleconomy.gov. 3. Continental ProContactTM with EcoPlus Technology mileage warranty compared to a leading competitor's warranty. 4. Independent braking test compared 215/60 R16 95T Continental ProContactTM with EcoPlus Technology to another leading competitor. |
