285/45R21 Continental PremiumContact 6 – EV Compatible Performance Summer

Category: Summer – Grand Touring

The Continental PremiumContact 6 is a grand touring summer tire that provides a truly premium experience. Maximum wet braking while improving mileage thanks to engineered crystal silica compounds extend driving convenience through a comfort-optimised performance footprint. The PremiumContact 6 has handling optimized for sporty driving while keeping the safety performance at the maximum level.

Run flat design allows you to still drive a short distance despite having a puncture. Must be used with a compatible vehicle and TPMS.

What these tire specs mean

  • Load Index 113 is the tire’s standardized carrying capacity, supporting up to 1150 kg per tire. Use it to confirm the tire meets or exceeds the load rating listed on your vehicle placard.
  • Speed Rating Y indicates the tire’s maximum sustained speed capability under proper load and inflation. This is approximately 300 km/h under proper load and inflation.
  • UTQG 280 AA A is the manufacturer treadwear, traction, and temperature grading system. It is useful for comparing tires from the same brand, but it should not be treated as an exact mileage promise.

  • XL means Extra Load. These tires are designed to carry higher loads at higher inflation pressures than a standard load tire in the same size, which matters for heavier vehicles, loaded vehicles, or factory fitments that require XL.
  • Run flat tires can temporarily support the vehicle after pressure loss, allowing you to keep control and drive a limited distance to service. Note that they require a compatible vehicle setup and a working TPMS system.
  • EV Compatible means the tire is marked as suitable for electric vehicles, where load, torque, rolling resistance, and noise can matter more.
  • Vehicle Type helps identify whether the tire is intended for passenger, light truck, commercial, or similar service categories.
