Following the launch of the Continental ComfortContact 6 (CC6) and UltraContact 6 (UC6), Continental Tyres Malaysia (CTM) has just introduced the MaxContact 6 (MC6), completing the full range of Generation 6 tyres. MC6 is the brands ultra-high performance (UHP) tyres that succeeds the MC5 that most of us are familiar with.
Produced at CTM’s plant in Alor Star, the MC6 Continentals ultra-high performance (UHP) tyres that succeeds the MC5 most of us are familiar with. Compared to the MC5, Continental has poured their R&D focus towards improving wet braking, dry handling and mileage while maintaining the same high levels of comfort and rolling noise.
Developed for rim sizes ranging from 16- to 20-inch in diameter, the MC6 features the brands latest innovation in tyre technology for superb acceleration, braking and cornering. The inner tyre walls features a Chevron Grip Element designed to provide even pressure distribution on the inside tyre walls for enhanced grip at the limit.
To further improve the tyres performance under demanding situations, the inner tyre grove has what Continental calls them Stabiliser Bars that stiffens the tyre’s overall structure during hard cornering. The MC6 also features new Adaptive Grip Control and Xtreme-Force Construction where special adhesive polymers have been applied to the tyre compound resulting in higher levels of predictability and higher grip threshold.
Despite the improved performance, the MC6 is equally as quiet and comfortable compared to its predecessor thanks to Noise Breaker 2.0 technology which breaks down the sound waves that flows through the grooves.
Prices of the tyres have yet to be announced but CTM ensured that their new MC6 will carry a highly competitive price tag. Production will go into full swing by the end of 2017 so it’s not too soon to head over to your nearest Continental dealership for a fresh set of UHP MC6.

tis MC6 looks good, anyone ever use tis model? how is the performance than others brand? izzit suitable for all range of car?
some said it is better than cc6, but depends on wat is ur requirement on the tyres actually, if just want basis performance cc6 is sufficient, cc6 is cheaper than others model even others brand premium tyres.
mc6 is combine of spec of cc6 and uc6, it seems like improved models tat hv both models spec. if want to compare price with others premium tyres, mc6 is stil consider far cheaper than others brand.
is tis mc6 available at malaysia market? becoz i heard some of the new conti model has to make special order from overseas.
if need to make special order from overseas that would be consume more time compare to those available here, last time my sis want to buy cpc6 also wait for very long time to get tyres since hv to make special order.
i think should be available at malaysia market, coz since it is improved model of uc6 and cc6, it should be available here coz uc6 and cc6 is quite popular here. cpc6 has to make special order but its quality is very gd, my uncle even use tis model for his audi car.
MC6 is like the best tyre of Continential currently, able to compete with all the premium tyres from the other brands such as Goodyear and Dunlop. It has stability, smooth handling and less noise, all within one package. But the best of all is that it is cheaper compared to the others even with all these specifications.
wat is the price of tis mc6? is the cc6 still available in the market? coz my friend said cc6 is the most cheaper model, so i thinking of buy one.
If I’m not mistaken MC6 is around RM400+ but CC6 is a lot cheaper, can find one around RM100+.
Just installed MC6 today at Rawang. Cost me RM320 per tyre. Driving less than 100km. So far, after installed and been experience on PLUS highway, the difference compared to previous tyre (Firestone):
1. smooth handling
2. very significant less noise
3. break also better
4. grip very well
Yeah MC6 is more expensive but surely it does come with a much better performance equivalent to the increase in cost. If dont have that much budget then CC6 is quite sufficient also, having a steady handling and does not produce any sort of weird noise while driving.
i think since it still new in market and not so many review on tis model, i would rather buy others brand with same spec and performance.
but their price is the lowest among others premium tyres even with the same spec and performance, looks like more worth to buy mc6 than others brand.
In my opinion Silverstone tyres still have better performance even though this MC6 seems not bad also.
I don’t think Silverstone is able to surpass MC6 in terms of performance. MC6 has a much better grip whether on normal or wet conditions while for Silverstone I have heard people complaining that during rainy days the tyres are not performing as well where they can feel their cars sliding for a bit before coming to a stop.
How much is mc6 18inch 225x45x18??
