The first information about the release of the Continental SportContact 7 appeared in the beginning of the 2021. This model is positioned as the successor of the SportContact 6, whose size range covers both powerful passenger sports cars and city SUVs. It is also noteworthy that in independent tire tests 2019-2021 the sixth generation tire had an impressive lead over its rivals in terms of gold medals, leaving behind such popular tires as Michelin, Goodyear, and many others. The optimized tread design, combined with lightweight construction, made the SportContact 7 more fuel-efficient compared to its predecessor. The rubber compound increases the new model’s resistance to high loads and overheating.

As for the exact technological specifications of the Continental SportContact 7, we will only see them after the official presentation of this model, scheduled for the fall of 2021. And this automatically means that the seventh generation of sports tires from the German tire giant will be available aftermarket only by the summer of 2022. At the same time, it is noted that already in the spring of 2021 some of the sizes of this model will be supplied to car makers who picked it as the OEM tires.
