sufficient
Ranked #42 of 50
The Avon ZV7 ranked 42 out of 50 in its performance, receiving a final rating of "Sufficient". Despite being relatively economical in fuel consumption, the tire was criticized for its unbalanced nature, notably its shortcomings on dry surfaces which led to its downgrading. Furthermore, it was marked down for its poor environmental footprint, predominantly due to its very low mileage, high wear, and sustainability weaknesses. In terms of driving safety, the tire's performance on dry roads offered just sufficient feedback and control, making it challenging for drivers to accurately gauge and maintain the necessary steering angle through turns. This often required mid-maneuver corrections, and the vehicle showed a tendency to oversteer during evasive actions, making it difficult to control. However, its braking distance was considered good relative to other tested tires. On wet surfaces, the Avon ZV7 narrowly missed a good rating, with commendable performance in braking and aquaplaning tests, yet only achieving satisfactory results in lateral aquaplaning and wet handling. It exhibited a moderate level of grip and a tendency to understeer or oversteer, suggesting a satisfactory combination of longitudinal and lateral forces. The environmental assessment highlighted the tire's significant abrasion and predicted low mileage, contributing to a sufficient rating despite a moderately low fuel consumption that did not fully compensate for its increased weight and efficiency concerns.
