Continental UltraContact NXT

In 2023, Continental launched the most sustainable passenger tire, the UltraContact NXT, with up to 65 percent renewable, recycled and mass balance certified materials. The unique position of this product is also reflected in its sidewall design. The designers created an abstracted leaf to symbolize the forward-looking message. For this they used elaborate 3D textures, which have never been realized before in tires. For the tread, "form follows function" applies. The advanced arrangement of longitudinal and lateral grooves delivers top values in all safety criteria and enables high mileage.

Continental develops pioneering technologies and services for sustainable and connected mobility of people and their goods. Founded in 1871, the technology company offers safe, efficient, intelligent and affordable solutions for vehicles, machines, traffic and transportation. In 2022, Continental generated sales of €39.4 billion and currently employs around 200,000 people in 57 countries and markets.

The Tires group sector has 24 production and development locations worldwide. Continental is one of the leading tire manufacturers with 57,000 employees and posted sales of €14 billion in 2022.
