The Conti GreenConcept at IAA Mobility 2021
Introducing the new GreenConcept tyre at IAA Mobility 2021

The world's largest international motor show hasn’t just changed its name, it has also shifted its focus from primarily cars to mobility in a much broader sense. IAA Mobility 2021 asked the question, “What will move us next”? In keeping with this fresh approach, the decentralised event was all about eco-friendly innovations, smart future mobility and outside-the-box green solutions to the challenges of our time.
In keeping with this new direction – and with our aim to become the most sustainable tyre company in the world we presented a game-changing tyre study. Watch the video to learn more:
