Hanover, Germany, March 12, 2026. With its ContiScoot line, Continental offers a premium scooter tire designed for use in the city and for commuting. The portfolio comprises over 30 tire sizes from 10 to 16 inches, covering a wide range of scooters from 50 to 350 cc – from compact city scooters and versatile everyday scooters to more powerful models.

With over 30 sizes available, the ContiScoot is a suitable option for almost every scooter model,” said Sagren Nair, Product Manager for Motorcycle Tires at Continental. “Our goal is to make urban mobility safer, more comfortable and more versatile.

Wide range of applications from city to commuter traffic

The ContiScoot portfolio covers a variety of established scooter models that are used daily in city traffic and in surrounding areas. Examples of typical combinations of the 120/70-15 front-wheel size and the 140/70-14 rear-wheel size include large-wheel scooters such as:

But even compact scooters with smaller tire dimensions such as 120/70-12 at the front and 130/70-12 at the rear can rely on the performance of the ContiScoot. Typical examples are:

- Vespa GTS 125 Super or GTS 300

ContiScoot is also available for electric scooters, such as the Niu MQi GT 100 in sizes 90/90-14 (front) and 110/80-14 (rear).

The ContiScoot target group are riders who use their scooters intensively – for example, for their daily commutes to work, for errands in the city center, or for trips in the surrounding urban areas. Thanks to the large number of tire dimensions, it can be used for a variety of purposes and riding profiles – from agile city scooters for narrow streets to comfortable commuter vehicles for longer distances.

Strong performance in wet, cold and heavy city traffic

The growing number of scooters in many markets, especially in metropolitan areas, is increasing the demand on tires and safety. Scooters are increasingly being perceived as full-fledged everyday vehicles – which means that reliable tires that perform in a wide range of weather conditions and offer predictable handling are correspondingly important.

Scooters combine flexibility with high everyday practicality,” said Nair. “This requires tires that react quickly to changing conditions while providing a safe and agile riding experience. This is exactly what the ContiScoot has been developed for, and we’ve transferred our experience from the motorcycle segment to the scooter sector. The tread compound and profile are designed for a high level of safety in everyday use – especially in rain, cool temperatures and frequent stop-and-go traffic.

Key product features include:

- Excellent wet grip: The rubber compound and tread pattern offer short braking distances and high riding stability on wet roads.

- Outstanding cold grip: The ContiScoot develops a high level of grip even during the warm-up phase, inspiring confidence – an important added value, especially on shorter, inner-city routes.

- Agile, neutral handling: The tire contour and carcass facilitate quick changes of direction, lane changes in city traffic and tight cornering without appearing nervous.

- High everyday usability and comfort: The design is geared towards a balanced ratio of damping, steering precision and stability – even in poor road conditions.

- Low wear: The compound has been developed for high mileage, which is an additional benefit for frequent commuters.

Satisfaction guarantee in selected countries

The ContiScoot satisfaction guarantee, which will continue to apply in selected countries in 2026, provides additional security when making a purchase decision. The core component is a money-back guarantee if scooter riders are not satisfied with the ContiScoot riding experience. Details on participating markets and conditions are available online.

Our approach is to ensure that scooter riders feel safe at any time of day and in almost any weather,

said Nair. “With the comprehensive ContiScoot range, we offer the right basis for this – regardless of whether it's a compact city scooter or a powerful large-wheel scooter.”
