The Barum Bravuris 5 HM, part of the Bravuris line, doesn't succeed any previous models. It received an overall rating of 39%.

In Autobild's test, it surpassed the Barum Bravuris 5 HM, achieving the 33rd position out of 50 tested tyres. However, it only placed 5th out of 8 tyres tested by GTÜ, suggesting that this tyre's real-world performance may also vary depending on different testing conditions.


Overall, the Matador MP47 Hectorra 3 performs better than the Barum Bravuris 5 HM according to individual tests' data. However, each tyre presents unique strengths and weaknesses, which different drivers might find appealing depending on their specific needs.
