The newly upgraded ContiConnect stands as a central element in their strategy, offering continuous monitoring of tire pressure and temperature, thereby averting potential issues and fostering fuel-efficient practices. Additionally, G.Webb equips its newer vehicles with Continental's revolutionary intelligent Tires, which come factory-fitted with sensors, facilitating seamless integration with the ContiConnect system and enhancing operational reliability.

Continental stands as a beacon of commitment towards efficient solutions. Ralf Benack, the Head of Fleet Solutions at Continental, shares, “With ContiConnect and the multifunctional app – which offers fleet managers even greater operative flexibility – we are taking the next step towards predictive maintenance." Continental's ContiConnect platform provides an effective Digital Tire Monitoring solution, aiding in maintaining optimum tire pressure and boosting efficiency, whether it's through the continuous monitoring feature of ContiConnect Live or the practical daily checks of ContiConnect Yard.
