sufficient
Ranked #16 of 16
In a comprehensive evaluation among 16 competitors, the Vredestein Ultrac was ranked last but received a final rating of 'Sufficient'. This tire was acknowledged for its secure performance on both dry and wet roads, a standout feature being its excellent aquaplaning resistance in the cross direction, where it performed best. Moreover, it was praised for its light weight and low fuel consumption, highlighting its efficiency. However, there were significant concerns regarding its predicted mileage and excessive wear, which ultimately affected its standing in the assessment. Despite these drawbacks, the Vredestein Ultrac was credited for safe driving characteristics, offering good steering feedback and stable handling on dry surfaces, and solid braking performance alongside aquaplaning capabilities on wet roads. Unfortunately, its shortfall in mileage and higher wear levels led to a lower overall environmental rating, despite its commendable fuel efficiency.

satisfactory
Ranked #14 of 21
Securing a commendable 4th position among 21 competitors, the Vredestein Ultrac demonstrated impressive performance in a recent evaluation. It was particularly noted for its convincing safety margins in aquaplaning scenarios, showcasing a sporty and dynamic driving behavior along with short braking distances on both wet and dry surfaces. However, the tyre was marked down for its considerably limited mileage longevity. An exceptional aspect of the tyre's performance was its outstanding capability in wet braking, where it truly excelled compared to its peers. This balance of proficient handling in critical conditions and a notable drawback in wear resistance creates a mixed yet largely favorable view of the Vredestein Ultrac's overall capabilities.
