Continental
Together, we connect real-time tire pressure and temperature readings to the Efficio onboard computer, so that drivers are alerted immediately and downtime, tire damage, and unsafe situations are prevented.
Safe driving starts with the right tire pressure
Tires are one of the most important components of a commercial vehicle. Underinflated tires or rising tire temperatures not only increase the risk of breakdowns and blowouts, but also lead to higher fuel consumption, faster wear, and unplanned downtime.
Continental’sContiConnect is an advanced Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that continuously monitors tire pressure and temperature. Sensors in the tire measure the current values and transmit them to the ContiConnect platform. Thanks to the integration with Rietveld’sEfficio onboard computer, important warnings are immediately visible to the driver while on the road.
Moving forward together with expertise.
Why do organizations choose ContiConnect?
ContiConnect was developed to provide fleets with continuous insight into the condition of their tires. The system not only monitors current tire pressure but also analyzes anomalies before they lead to downtime or damage.
With ContiConnect, you gain insight into, among other things:
- current tire pressure;
- tire temperature;
- slow air leaks;
- sudden drops in pressure;
- the condition of each tire;
- warnings for critical values;
- historical measurement data;
- performance of entire fleets.
This makes preventive tire management an integral part of daily operations.
From tire sensor to immediate warning in the cab
The strength of this integration lies in the speed at which information becomes available.
When ContiConnect detects an abnormal tire pressure or temperature, this alert is immediately forwarded to the Efficio onboard computer. The driver receives the warning immediately while driving and can take appropriate action depending on the severity of the alert.
This provides real-time insight into:
- low tire pressure;
- excessive tire pressure;
- rising tire temperature;
- critical alarm notifications;
- the specific tire position;
- current status of the tires.
This ensures that problems are detected not just during a maintenance check, but exactly when action is needed.
Fewer breakdowns, greater uptime
Many breakdowns on the road are caused by incorrect tire pressure. By identifying deviations early, damage can often be prevented.
With the combination of ContiConnect and Efficio, organizations can:
- prevent blowouts;
- reduce unplanned downtime;
- limit roadside assistance;
- plan maintenance more effectively;
- extend tire life.
This keeps vehicles in service longer and minimizes unexpected costs.
Lower Costs and More Sustainable Driving
Proper tire pressure directly affects a vehicle’s performance. Lower rolling resistance means lower fuel consumption or a longer driving range for electric vehicles.
By providing continuous insight into tire condition, ContiConnect helps organizations achieve:
- lower fuel consumption;
- reducing CO₂ emissions;
- extending tire life;
- lower maintenance costs;
- higher operational efficiency.
A well-maintained tire therefore contributes not only to safety, but also to sustainability and a lower Total Cost of Ownership.
Real-time information for drivers and fleet management
In addition to alerts for the driver, ContiConnect also provides insights for the back office. This allows technical services and fleet managers to schedule preventive maintenance before a vehicle breaks down.
By combining the real-time alerts on the Efficio onboard computer with ContiConnect’s central monitoring, both the driver and fleet management have access to the same up-to-date information.
This ensures:
- faster follow-up on alerts;
- better collaboration between drivers and service centers;
- fewer unexpected repairs;
- higher vehicle availability.
