Volkswagen’s all-electric ID.7 model comes exclusively equipped with Continental’s EcoContact 7 S tires in the 21-inch size worldwide. These tires are engineered to boost electric vehicle performance, featuring very low rolling resistance for excellent energy efficiency and highly noise-optimized technology for a quieter ride. This combination makes them a perfect match for the ID.7, enhancing range, comfort, and driving precision.
Key Highlights
- Exclusive worldwide original equipment approval for the VW ID.7 in 21-inch size
- EV-compatible design with the “EV-compatible logo” on the sidewall
- Maximum energy efficiency due to low rolling resistance
- Low rolling noise thanks to the Silent Pattern tire profile
- High mileage and powerful steering precision
The EcoContact 7 S stands out due to its advanced technologies. It uses a new rubber compound and Continental’s Smart Energy Casing to reduce friction inside the tire, lowering rolling resistance and boosting energy efficiency. The tire wall also features an optimized design with “aerodimple” structures—recesses inspired by golf ball dimples—that improve aerodynamics and cut energy use further. These innovations help the ID.7 achieve better range and efficiency on every drive.
Noise reduction is a major benefit of the EcoContact 7 S. Its Silent Pattern tire profile adjusts the spacing and angle of tread blocks to minimize road noise, especially at urban speeds around 50 km/h. This creates a quieter ride for passengers and reduces noise for people nearby, making it ideal for city driving with electric or combustion vehicles alike.
Safety remains uncompromised despite the focus on efficiency. The tire’s tread compound ensures strong traction and handling in wet conditions, offering reliable performance year-round. For electric vehicles like the VW ID.7, the EcoContact 7 S extends range with its low rolling resistance and enhances comfort by pairing quiet tires with the silent operation of an electric motor.
The EcoContact 7 S is approved for the VW ID.7 in these sizes: 235/40 R21 98H XL and 265/35 R21 101H XL, both with ContiSeal technology for puncture resistance. This tire delivers a blend of efficiency, durability, and precision tailored for the ID.7’s needs.
