Continental EcoContact 6 And 6Q Tyres For Petrol, Hybrid And Electric Vehicles Launched In Malaysia
Renowned German tyre manufacturer, Continental, has expanded its Malaysian portfolio with the launch of the EcoContact 6 and EcoContact 6Q, 2 innovative tyres engineered for enhanced fuel efficiency, quieter drives, and longer range across petrol, hybrid, and electric vehicles.
Developed to meet the growing demand for eco-friendly and efficient mobility solutions in Malaysia, the new EcoContact series offers optimised rolling resistance, superior grip, and reduced interior noise—making them ideal for both urban commuters and long-distance drivers.
“At Continental, we constantly push the boundaries of tyre technology to enhance every journey with confidence. For Malaysian drivers, whether navigating city streets, cruising on highways, or embarking on long-distance journeys, the EcoContact 6 and 6Q are designed to offer comfort, efficiency, and safety for a quieter, smoother ride with extended range,” said Andrea Somorova, Managing Director of Continental Tyre Malaysia.
Fuel-Efficient Tyres With Eco Innovation
The EcoContact 6 is engineered to reduce fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions, thanks to a high-tech silica compound that minimises rolling resistance. Its asymmetric rib and sipe geometry further enhance grip and road stability in both wet and dry conditions.
Building on that foundation, the EcoContact 6Q introduces additional enhancements with advanced noise-reduction technology, providing a smoother and quieter drive. Continental’s Advanced Green Chili 2.0 compound intelligently adapts to varying road conditions, while maintaining consistent contact with the road surface for better stability—especially during lane changes.
Both tyres also feature ContiSilent™ technology, a polyurethane foam absorber that reduces in-cabin tyre noise by up to 9 dB(A). The result is a significantly quieter and more comfortable driving experience, whether on smooth highways or uneven roads.
Trusted By Premium Carmakers
Trusted globally, the EcoContact 6 and 6Q are factory-fitted by leading automotive manufacturers, including BMW and Mercedes-Benz, due to their class-leading performance and energy efficiency. The tyres are now available in Malaysia in sizes ranging from 15″ to 21″, with OE markings specially developed and approved for luxury vehicles. 
While the EcoContact 6 prioritises long-term durability, the EcoContact 6Q is tailored for those seeking enhanced ride comfort through lower noise levels—making both suitable for Malaysia’s diverse driving conditions and vehicle types.
You can purchase the EcoContact 6 and 6Q from authorised Continental dealers nationwide, as well as via official Continental stores on Shopee, TNG eWallet, and Lazada.
