electronic-Tire Information System:
Making tomorrow´s driving even safer

In addition to the standard functionality and benefits of Continental’s Tire Pressure Monitoring System solutions, our electronic-Tire Information System (eTIS) is a revolution for advanced tire information and cutting edge performance.

Our eTIS solution provides full functional scalability. Vehicle manufacturers can choose their own functional strategy according to their specific needs.

Being integrated directly into the inner liner of the tire means that Continental’s solution offers a simplified, standardized electronic and mounting process for all customers, regardless of tire type or rim size – finally one size really fits all.

Furthermore, Continental is the only supplier who can offer in-house
know-how for the full eTIS working environment – from the tire through to the chassis control architecture.

Advantages: Intelligent and Advanced functions 

• Assists the driver to maintain correct tire pressure
• Best performance at lowest cost to meet global legislative demands
• Maximizes the benefits of high performance electric vehicle tires over their lifetime
• Advanced tire-management with scalable features such as load detection, notification for winter/summer tire change and tread depth information
• Improved driving dynamics through integration of intelligent tire information regarding road conditions into the chassis network
• Sensor with unlimited performance levels including no compromise for speed
• Reduced weight in wheel compared to standard Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems

The future – eTIS integrated in Intelligent Transportation Systems

Continental’s eTIS modules in the near future will take the next innovative leap to wirelessly connect tire and road information into car-2-car and car-to-infrastructure transportation management systems. eTIS, linked into transportation management systems will enable safety critical road condition information to be passed on to other vehicles approaching the same road stretch – supporting drivers to take corrective action to safety navigate the identified hazard.
