Continental Tire to supply Audi Q3 with specialized tire models

Continental Tire has announced that its EcoContact 6 Q summer tires will be supplied as original equipment (OE) for the new Audi Q3 compact SUV. The summer tires are designed for high energy efficiency and low rolling resistance, utilizing specialized rubber compounds and optimized tread patterns to reduce fuel consumption and noise.

In addition to the OE summer tire, Continental’s WinterContact TS 870 P has been approved as a recommended winter tire, featuring tread patterns designed for stability on snow and ice. For the North American market, specifically in the United States and Canada, the ProContact TX10 all-season tire has been selected as a recommended option for the Audi Q3, offering balanced grip across various weather conditions.

Niko Kyriazopoulos, representative of the replacement tire division at Continental Tire Korea, emphasized the importance of selecting tires suited to specific road environments and seasons to maximize vehicle performance.
