Specifications
CONTINENTAL ULTRACONTACT
CONTINENTAL ULTRACONTACT 215/45R17 91Y XL — quality Summer tyre from CONTINENTAL. Reliable grip, stability and durability for everyday driving across all conditions.
How fuel-efficient is this tyre?
Efficient, just shy of the top. The CONTINENTAL ULTRACONTACT carries a B rating, the second band on the EU scale. Rolling resistance is still low, and in normal driving the gap from a class A tyre is small enough that you'd barely notice it at the pump.
How well does this tyre grip in the wet?
Very well. The CONTINENTAL ULTRACONTACT is rated A for wet grip, the top grade on the EU label. That means the shortest braking distances on wet roads, so the tyre pulls the car up quickly in rain or on standing water. If you do a lot of wet-weather driving, this is the safest band you can buy.
How much road noise does this tyre make?
About average. At 70 dB the CONTINENTAL ULTRACONTACT sits right around the middle for car tyres. Nothing intrusive, nothing especially hushed — a level most drivers stop noticing after a few minutes.
Are these tyres reinforced?
Yes. The CONTINENTAL ULTRACONTACT carries the XL (Extra Load) marking, which means a stronger casing that takes higher pressures and carries more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. That suits heavier cars, fully loaded driving, vans, and EVs, which run heavier because of their battery packs. To get the full benefit, set the higher pressure the XL rating allows.
CONTINENTAL is a premium class manufacturer offering solid-quality tyres with a good balance of price and durability.
