Table of contents:
Looking for a comparison of Michelin CrossClimate 2 to tyres that are made in similar dimensions? Here you can find detailed information based on tests, reviews and manufacturer's data.
In the world of all-round tyres, two models have proven to be quite impressive: the Michelin CrossClimate 2 and the Continental AllSeasonContact 2. The successor to the popular Michelin CrossClimate, the CrossClimate 2 is proudly made in Italy and Spain and has an overall rating of 92%. On the other hand, the AllSeasonContact 2, which succeeds the Continental AllSeasonContact, is made in the Czech Republic and has a commendable 85% rating.
Despite the ratings, what sets these two apart are the real-world performance results from various tyre tests. In the AUTOBILD test, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 ranked 4th out of 37 tested tyres, demonstrating exceptional strengths in snow traction, snow handling, and dry braking amongst others. The Continental AllSeasonContact 2 featured prominently in the same test, ranking 3rd, with excellent performance in wet handling and braking, as well as dry handling and exterior noise.
When it comes to mutual tests, the AllSeasonContact 2 outperformed the CrossClimate 2 in the SPORTAUTO test, taking the 1st position against Michelin's 4th out of 6 tyres tested. However, in the ALVOLANTE test, the Michelin tyre reclaimed superiority, ranking 2nd against Continental's 4th position out of 7 tested tyres.
In focused tyre reviews, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 tyres showed exceptional performance in dry grip and aquaplaning resistance while the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 tyres stood out in dry and wet handling, snow traction, and wear. However, both tyres showed areas of improvement such as wet braking for CrossClimate 2 and dry braking and aquaplaning resistance for AllSeasonContact 2.
In the final analysis, Michelin's CrossClimate 2 stands out for its impressive handling in snowy conditions, mileage, and rolling resistance, despite slightly more extended wet braking distances. On the other hand, the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 offers well-balanced performance with a strong performance in snow and ice, excellent wet traction and handling, low exterior noise, albeit with limited aquaplaning reserves and a higher price point.
In conclusion, both Michelin and Continental have produced high-quality all-round tyre options. Your final choice will depend on your specific requirements regarding handling, rolling resistance, noise, and price.
