ContiConnect tyre management solution upgraded25 February 2022

 ContiConnect 2.0 is a new version of Continental’s proven digital tyre management system that was developed from scratch.

“With ContiConnect 2.0, we are building on existing functions such as continuous tyre pressure monitoring to enable our fleet customers to digitally track the remaining mileage, tread depth, and condition of all the tyres in their fleets,” says Sven Wilhelmsen, Head of Product Management Digital Solutions at Continental Tyres. Added to which, the user experience has been significantly improved – thanks to the release of a new app, which covers all the work taking place on the vehicle and presents the fleet manager with the information relevant to them in an even more precisely targeted form.

All available data on the tyre and vehicle is continuously analysed in the cloud. Big data makes it possible to issue precise tyre condition forecasts. Vehicle and tyre services can be coordinated and aligned with one another to optimum effect, which creates synergies and seamless links to workshops and dealers. The result, says the company, is increased fleet efficiency, lower overall costs and reassurance for fleet managers that their vehicles will be ready to use more of the time. “With ContiConnect 2.0, we are continuing to expand our offering of smart, digital tyre solutions as we move towards predictive maintenance,” adds Wilhelmsen. ContiConnect 2.0 has been trialled successfully by a selected group of customers since late 2021, and the new platform will be rolled out worldwide during 2022.

Wilhelmsen adds that the company is planning to integrate external systems for recording tread depth.
