Aquaplaning.

High aquaplaning safety due to the arrow-shaped grooves in the tread pattern, enabling rapid water drainage.

Start

Snow braking and snow handling.

Better snow braking, snow handling and excellent snow traction due to the high number of blocks in the shoulder.

Start

Braking on ice and wet

High block rigidity in the tread pattern centre and high number of sipes provide excellent braking effect on ice and wet roads

EU Tyre Label

1. Wet grip

The wet grip rating indicates how well the tyre will perform in wet conditions, with performance graded from class A down to E. A high grade means short braking distances on wet roads.

2. Fuel efficiency

Reduced rolling resistance saves fuel and cuts CO₂ emissions. Class A tyres deliver the best fuel efficiency, with fuel consumption increasing all the way down to class E.

3. Noise level

This is the external rolling noise generated by the tyre, measured in decibels. The label shows the noise level rated in classes from A down to C.

Additional pictograms for snow and icy conditions

In addition to these three label values, there are also pictograms − if applicable − relating to performance in severe snow conditions (3PMSF) and/or grip in icy conditions (the latter applies to passenger car tyres only).

With the EU label generator, you can access the specific label values for your Continental tyres.
