Product description & features

Reliability is one aspect of the Summer Touring Continental EcoContact 3, but sustainability is another. Driving every day produces an abundance of carbon. The EcoContact 3 is designed to minimise this by using a tread and casing which help to reduce the energy demand to keep the tyre rolling. It features a tread pattern which includes wide grooves running along the tread and channels that direct water away from where the tread meets the road. The EcoContact 3 includes fine slits throughout the tread, which increase the edges available for traction and braking on wet roads, and a tread pattern designed for uniform tread wear.

The EcoContact 3 is the predecessor for the Continental EcoContact 5. The EcoContact 5 increases the focus on wet-road safety balance with fuel efficiency even further. It features a similar low rolling resistance tyre design as the EcoContact 3 which strives to decrease fuel consumption in petrol cars and diesel cars, as well as in electric cars and e-vehicles, by improving the driving electric range. Tyres.co.uk offers the Continental EcoContact 3 to our customers.

Highlights

  • Wide grooves and water channels
  • Fine slits for wet traction
  • Tread pattern for even wear

Tyre review for Continental Eco Contact 3 155/60R15 74T
Very happy with these tyres. Just changed the front set with the same ones after 60,000 fuss-free motorway miles.

Tyre review for Continental Eco Contact 3 155/60R15 74T
I haven't seen much difference from the cheap tyres I switched from so I could have just fitted the same budget tyres for half the cost and achieved the same result. In the future I will go for budget tyres when I want to save money and Pirelli when I want high performance.

Tyre review for Continental Eco Contact 3 155/60R15 74T
I replaced my Kleber front tyres, which were okay until the tread wore down and the grip suffered, for Continentals. People have said how good these tyres are and Which magazine rates them as a top contender. My KA now drives significantly better and grips a lot better on dry roads. I still need to see how they perform on wet roads.

The improved grip in these tyres is impressive. You can easily notice how well the tyres help the car handles around corners.
