Continental has received original equipment approval from General Motors for two models, the Cadillac OPTIQ and Chevrolet Equinox EV.

Both these electric SUVs will be factory-equipped with the all-weather touring tyre CrossContact RX in 20 & 21 inch sizes. Which have been specially developed for safe, quiet, and comfortable driving, even with light off-road usage and moderate snowfall.

Developers at Continental have designed the CrossContact series to provide excellent braking behaviour and effective dynamics on dry, wet, and snowy roads. The adapted tire tread pattern and contour also ensure low rolling resistance and improved traction in different weather conditions, including light snowfall. 

Whilst the uniform sipe arrangement on the tread reduces rolling noise and ensures a comfortable and quiet driving style. Finally, the ContiSeal technology in both tyres can seal punctures of up to 6 mm in diameter and allow customer to keep driving in the case of most punctures.

This tyre line has been approved in the following sizes for the Cadillac OPTIQ and the Chevrolet Equinox EV in numerous countries for both the :CrossContact RX, 275/40 R21 107H XL FR ContiSeal and CrossContact RX, 245/50 R20 105H XL FR ContiSeal size options.
