Comparison: Bridgestone Turanza T005 vs. Kumho Ecsta HS52 vs. Michelin e.Primacy vs. GoodYear Efficientgrip Performance 2 vs. Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 vs. Goodyear Efficientgrip 2 SUV

The following is a comparison of two summer touring tyres: Bridgestone Turanza T005 and Kumho Ecsta HS52. These tyres have been subject to various tests to determine their performance under different conditions.


Bridgestone Turanza T005


Manufactured in Hungary, Poland, France, and Italy by Bridgestone, the Turanza T005 is a high-performing tyre with an 89% rating on our scale. The T005 has consistently showcased strong performance in testing. Most notably, it claimed the top position in the Autobild test, dominated by its dry and wet braking, and wet handling capabilities. Additionally, it placed third and fourth in the Autoklub ČR and ADAC tests respectively, recognized for its impressive rolling resistance and wet cornering performance.


Bridgestone Turanza T005's noted strengths include a balanced drive on both dry and wet roads, high efficiency and a decent environmental footprint. However, the tyre's performance is slightly hindered by its reduced mileage.


Kumho Ecsta HS52


Developed by Kumho as a successor to the Ecsta HS51, the Ecsta HS52 has earned an 81% rating on our scale. Although it has not outperformed the Turanza T005 in any of the mentioned tests, it was placed third in Autobild test, excelling in areas such as dry braking and price-value offering. It also achieved the eighth position in the ADAC test.


The Kumho Ecsta HS52’s strengths lie in its balanced performance on both dry and wet roads, short dry and wet braking distances, comfort, and good price-to-performance ratio. On the downside, it was criticized for its delayed steering response and environmental impact, and lower efficiency and sustainability when compared with the Bridgestone Turanza T005.


Conclusion


After analyzing all the test results, the Bridgestone Turanza T005 appears to be the stronger performer overall. Although the Kumho Ecsta HS52 has commendable qualities and a good price-to-performance ratio, it lags behind in efficiency, environmental impact, and steering response. It's imperative to choose a tyre model that best suits your driving style and conditions.
