• Summer tyre from Continental scores best possible “exemplary” rating in AutoBild Sportscars test
• Test line-up included eleven size 245/45 R 18 tyres

In its latest issue (4/19) under the heading “Pitstop”, AutoBild Sportscars reports on the latest summer tyre test. Of the eleven size 245/45 R 18 tyres in the test, the PremiumContact 6 from Continental was awarded the best possible rating: “examplary”. “A balanced peak performer delivering impressive dynamic performance on wet and dry roads, steady and safe handling in the wet and dry, a precision steering response in the wet, and short wet and dry braking distances,” was how the journalists summed up their findings. 

The PremiumContact 6 recorded high scores for safety-relevant criteria in particular: In the dry braking, aquaplaning and wet handling tests, for example, it scored good and very good marks as it laid the foundations for the best rating that the magazine awards.
