Product description & features
Continental EcoContact 5 is a summer tyre developed for modern passenger cars and crossover-style vehicles that spend most of their time on UK roads. It’s aimed at drivers who want dependable day-to-day performance with an emphasis on efficiency, making it well suited to commuting, school runs and longer motorway journeys in warmer conditions.
To support confident handling, the tread is shaped to maintain a stable, even contact patch as speed and load change. Broad shoulder blocks help the tyre feel planted through corners, while the central ribs improve straight-line tracking and braking stability. This design also promotes consistent wear, helping the tyre deliver reliable performance over its service life.
Wet-weather security comes from wide circumferential grooves and carefully placed channels that clear surface water quickly, reducing the likelihood of aquaplaning. Fine tread detailing adds extra biting edges for grip on damp roads without making the ride harsh. A low rolling resistance compound and optimised casing construction help cut energy loss, supporting better fuel economy and lower CO₂ output compared with less efficient tyres.
You’ll find the EcoContact 5 available in a wide selection of popular sizes (including many 14–18 inch fitments), with reinforced options for heavier vehicles where applicable. Order online in all available sizes on Tyres.co.uk and choose fitting at a local garage of your choice or delivery to suit your needs.
