Continental stands for safe, energy efficient and long-lasting tyres. When it comes to rolling resistance, we are pushing the limits to reduce CO2 emissions as well as extend the range of electric vehicles without compromising on grip and therefore safety. We know: The better the rolling resistance, the lower the energy consumption and the higher the range of electric vehicles.

And there’s more: if you buy Continental tires for your EV, we neutralize the CO2 backpack before and after use. Just sign up and make your purchase carbon-neutral at no extra cost.

We at Continental especially want to turn trends into opportunities. Our technologies not only make mobility more convenient and safer. They also make it more sustainable. For this reason, we at Continental have set the goal of achieving 100% carbon neutrality along our entire value chain by 2050 at the latest. Our energy efficiency of tyre production is already well above the current industry standard.

We continually invest in research and development to drive innovative technologies, alternative and sustainable materials, and environmentally friendly production processes. We support the electric vehicle revolution by ensuring that our broad range of tyres meet electric vehicle requirements, such as tyres with low rolling resistance. In this way, energy consumption in electric vehicles goes down while the range goes up. And we want to achieve even more together with our customers.
