Comparison: Apollo Alnac 4G vs. Bridgestone Turanza T005

The Apollo Alnac 4G and Bridgestone Turanza T005 are two summer tyres, which are invariably compared to each other. Here's an in-depth comparison based on data collected from different tyre tests, conducted by institutions like Autoklub ČR, ADAC and Autobild.

The Apollo Alnac 4G, manufactured by Apollo tyres, has not been as successful in tests as its comparison tyre. Our rating of its overall performance is 46%. From the Autoklub ČR test (with a total of 19 tyres), the Apollo Alnac 4G secured the 14th position. In the ADAC test (15 tyres in total), it reached the 6th place, while in the Autobild test (53 tyres in total), it appeared at the 21st position. Its main strength is its efficiency, but it tends to not be balanced and shows weaknesses on both dry and wet roads. Further, it was critiqued for poor environmental balance, sustainability and wearing off quickly.

On the other hand, the Bridgestone Turanza T005, produced by Bridgestone, has an impressive rating of 92% in our records. It performed considerably well at the mutual tests with Apollo Alnac. In the Autoklub ČR, it came 3rd with highlights for its low rolling resistance and ability to corner on wet surfaces. The same position was held in the ADAC test whereas the Autobild test placed it at 7th position. Its advantages range from good performance on dry and wet roads, high efficiency (highest grades), and a positive environmental balance. No prominent weaknesses were detected during testing.

Overall, the Bridgestone Turanza T005 seems to be a better pick out of the two, excelling in all major areas of a summer tyre performance. Whether it's efficiency, how it manages on dry and wet roads, or even environmental footprint, it outperforms the Apollo Alnac 4G. The Bridgestone tyre might be an undoubted winner here, but choosing the right tyre depends on your individual driving habits, road conditions and budget.
