Comparison: Continental AllSeasonContact 2 vs. Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 vs. Kleber Quadraxer 3

The Continental AllSeasonContact 2, which did not replace any existing models, is a significant player in the market. Made in the Czech Republic, it scored an impressive 85% in our rating. In a total of 6 tyres tested by SPORTAUTO, the AllSeasonContact 2 came out top, enhancing its solid reputation. Also, it came in 2nd out of 16 tyres tested by Autobild, impressively scoring top marks for exterior noise, snow cornering, snow traction, and wet braking.

Strengths: From our tests, it becomes clear that the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 performs admirably in winter conditions with dynamic handling and short braking distances on wet roads. It also offers a smooth, quiet ride thanks to its low external noise and promises high mileage.

Weaknesses: However, it exhibits a tendency for understeering, which automotive enthusiasts might find somewhat off-putting.

The Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 tyre, on the other hand, replaced the Hankook Kinergy 4S. This South Korean tyre boasts an even higher rating of 89% in our analysis. In the six-tyre test by SPORTAUTO, it achieved a commendable 2nd position. Autobild also had it in the 8th spot out of 16, where this model performed exceptionally well in cross aquaplaning scenarios.

Strengths: The Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 stands out with its reliable snow/ice performance and accuracy in steering response. It also offers substantial mileage, which is another big plus.

Weaknesses: Like the Continental, the Hankook also has a weakness: It tends to slightly lengthen wet and dry braking distances.

Overall, both tyres display formidable performance. However, considering their performance in tests, one might argue that the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 holds a slight edge, particularly concerning snow and wet performance. Still, the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 offers solid performance in different conditions and is also a worthy contender.
