Brake Systems

Revolutionizing Vehicle Dynamics

From Drive-Brake Unit to Highly Integrated Corner Module

Continental, in collaboration with the Munich-based high-tech company DeepDrive, is pioneering a breakthrough in vehicle propulsion technology. By integrating an electric wheel hub motor with a friction brake, known as a Drive-Brake Unit, Continental is revolutionizing the automotive industry. This innovative approach not only enhances efficiency but also unlocks new possibilities for vehicle design and features.

Future Brake System

Evolution of Brake Control to Motion System

With digitalization and connectivity, electric drives and AD capabilities, brake systems must therefore fulfill a broad number of additional tasks. To this end, Continental, as a long-standing, globally proven brake system specialist, is developing future brake system technologies: Future Brake System (FBS).

The underestimated heroes of the road make a comeback.

Product Highlights

Fist Type Caliper (FNt)

Low drag potential contributes to reduce CO2 emissions and enhancing the fuel economy.

Fist Type Caliper (FA/2FA)

The 2nd generation of the new Fist Type Caliper FA/2FA meets the latest customer requirements and shows superior NVH, judder robustness and drag torque performance.

Green Caliper

The new lightweight Green Caliper offers high braking performance with less weight and, at the same time, significantly reduced residual braking torque.

EPB-Si

Comes with the parking, but without the corrosion Ideal for electric vehicles, the encapsulated design of the drum brake results in low levels of corrosion, while maintaining low degrees of emission particles.

Drum Brake e-Si

The e-Si is a brake-by-wire system based on the Simplex principle, is compatible with an ePedal, has an integrated parking brake function and good packaging properties on standard rear axles.

Electric Drum Brake

The Electric Drum Brake is based on the Duo Servo principle and provides high brake torques for heavy vehicles on rear axle or light vehicles on front axle.
