Continental AG Announces Board Changes

I'm PortAI, I can summarize articles.
Continental AG's Supervisory Board has appointed Christian Kötz as the new chairman of the Executive Board, effective January 1, 2026, succeeding Nikolai Setzer. This leadership change aligns with Continental's strategic transformation into a pure-play tire company, following the spin-off of Aumovio and the planned sale of ContiTech. Kötz's extensive experience in the tire business and his collaboration with Setzer are expected to ensure a smooth transition. The company aims to complete its realignment and integrate remaining functions with the tire organization.
