In 2018 experts of the German publication Auto Bild have tested the Continental All Season Contact at size 195/65 R15 and compared it with nine similar budget, mid-range and premium tyres. In addition, experts included into the test reference summer and winter tyres, for comparison of results.
4th place in Dry braking. The braking distance was: a) 4m longer, than the best a/s tire; b) 4.4m longer, than summer; c) 3.6m shorter, than winter.8-9th place in Dry handling. Continental was: a) 1.6km/h slower, than the best a/s tire; b) 3.6km/h slower, than summer; c) 0.3km/h faster, than winter.5-6th place in Wet braking. The braking distance was: a) 3.4m longer, than the best a/s tire; b) 7.2m longer, than summer; c) 4.8m shorter, than winter.3rd place in Wet handling. Continental was: a) 0.5km/h slower, than the best a/s tire; b) 0.7km/h slower, than summer; c) 2.2km/h faster, than winter.1st place and the best result in Straight aqua. The float speed was: a) 1.3km/h higher, than next a/s tire; b) 7.1km/h higher, than winter; c) 9.5km/h higher, than summer.2nd place in Snow braking.
