Description
ContiSportContact™ 3 – developed for high-performance vehicles.
- Excellent safety when driving at speed
- Shorter stopping distances on dry and wet roads
- Excellent protection against aquaplaning
Safety:
The complexity of the technology used on new Continental tyres increases from generation to generation. The ContiSportContact™ 3 has asymmetric belts, which allow extremely precise steering response and excellent safety when driving in a sporty manner.
Braking:
The tyre has an optimised groove concept with a larger volume. This improves the acceptance of forces generated during braking and significantly increases water absorption. This results in a higher braking performance in dry and wet conditions, as well as excellent resistance to aquaplaning.
Stability:
Thanks to the unique tread design, based on the circumferential tread bands, the tyre has an optimal ground contact area in any driving situation. This gives the vehicle good directional stability during quick cornering and at high speeds.
The tyre features the SSR system (Self-Supporting Run-Flat Tyre). Should a puncture occur, you can continue to drive up to 80 kilometres, at a maximum speed of 80 km/h, by modifying your driving style. Only possible with a functionable air pressure check system.
Manufacturer information
EU Tyre Label
The Tyre Labelling Regulation determines the information that must be provided with regard to tyres' fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise. Information is also provided on the product's performance in wintery driving conditions.
Regulation EU 1222/2009, which has been in force since 01/11/2012, has been revised and will be replaced from 1 May 2021 by Regulation EU 2020/740, from which point new standards will apply. The assessment categories for fuel efficiency, wet grip and external noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been changed accordingly. The manufacturers' product data sheets, stored in the EU database, can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. It also includes information on snow grip and ice grip for tyres that meet these criteria.
The following tyres are exempt from the regulation:
- Tyres designed to be fitted only to vehicles registered for the first time before 1 October 1990
- Remoulded tyres (until Regulation EU 2020/740 has been widened accordingly)
- Professional off-road tyres
- Racing tyres
- Tyres with additional devices to improve traction, e.g. studded tyres
- Temporary-use spare tyres (T-type tyres)
- Tyres with a speed rating below 80 km/h
- Tyres with a nominal rim diameter of 254 mm or less and 635 mm or more
