The ultimate tire all-rounder: the all-season tire
Enjoy every season with all-season tires
A tire for all seasons, Continental’s all-season range makes no compromise in milder parts of the world. Rather it combines the best of both summer and winter tires for the perfect all-rounder.
In some countries, winter means freezing cold temperatures, heavy snow and icicles on every ledge. But in other places, winter can mean only cold weather, rain and an occasional dusting of snow. The same is true in summer: in some countries the heat can reach scorching temperatures of 40°C; while in other locations, the seasonal high will only ever reach about 28°C.
If you live in a moderate climate, you can enjoy a smooth ride in every season with all-season tires from Continental. Read on to discover more!

Aquaplaning with all-season tires
Even if you only ever drive in mild winter weather where snow and ice are not a worry, you still need to be aware of slippery roads. Why?
It’s not the snow and ice that are slippery, it’s the thin layer of water that builds up between the road surface and the tire of a car. It can happen in any season, but the risk is higher in wet winter weather. Find out more about the phenomenon of aquaplaning or hydroplaning, how to avoid it and how to react if it happens.
Driving in winter rain
Winter means snow? Sure, but in most places, winter also means rain. Lots of rain. As with all winter driving conditions, driving in the rain is a lot more challenging than driving on dry roads in the sunshine. Wet roads pose a greater risk to drivers and demand more of your car, its safety features and, in particular, its tires. Find out how to navigate a heavy shower safely.
