We’re proud to share that Continental SportContact 7 has once again been named TEST WINNER by AUTO BILD sportscars in its 2026 Summer Tyre Test, earning the top overall rating 1.2 (“exemplary”).

In a comprehensive comparison of eight ultra‑high‑performance summer tyres, tested in the sizes 255/35 R19 (front) and 275/35 R19 (rear) on a BMW Z4, SportContact 7 delivered outstanding results across all key disciplines:

✅ Shortest braking distances in the entire test

✅ Best handling performance (wet & dry)

✅ Exceptional control and stability

AUTO BILD sportscars summed it up clearly, calling SportContact 7 the “Handling King”, highlighting how it “sticks to the asphalt” while delivering maximum safety and control in all conditions.

With its latest AUTO BILD sportscars test victory, SportContact 7 once again confirms Continental’s focus on combining maximum driving pleasure with uncompromising safety, especially in critical situations like emergency braking or wet handling.
