Continental Tire announced on the 15th that it will supply the new car tire (OE) 'EcoContact 7' to Volkswagen's all-electric compact car, 'ID. Polo'. The 17-inch and 18-inch sizes applied this time will be installed as the standard summer tires for the ID. Polo.
The EcoContact 7 is a summer tire characterized by low rolling resistance, long tread life, and quiet performance. This size received the highest grade, Grade A, in both energy efficiency and wet braking categories in the European Union (EU) tire label evaluation.
The product features a special material combination designed to reduce rolling resistance. Additionally, an 'Aerodimple' structure is applied to the sidewall to minimize air resistance, and a 'Silent Pattern' that reduces urban driving noise has been installed.
This product is scheduled to arrive in the Korean market in September. Nico Kiriazopoulos, Head of Replacement Tires at Continental Tire Korea, stated that the company will continue to supply products equipped with efficiency, quietness, and braking performance required for electric vehicles. Meanwhile, Volkswagen recommends 'AllSeasonContact 2' for all-season use and 'WinterContact TS 870 P' for winter driving.
