In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from India (
Apollo) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Italy (
Pirelli). Generally,
Pirelli winter tyres are slightly better rated (71%) than
Apollo (57%). In this particular case, the Pirelli Cinturato Winter 2 has a better rating of 65% compared to 49% of the Apollo Aspire XP Winter. The first tyre test of Apollo Aspire XP Winter was done in 2019, compared to 2022 when was the Pirelli Cinturato Winter 2 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
ADAC 2023 225/45 R17 test, where both the
Aspire XP Winter and the
Cinturato Winter 2 were tested. See more mutual tests below.
