In this comparison, we will be looking at two popular all-season tyres, the Continental AllSeasonContact and the Nokian WeatherProof. Both tyres are well-regarded in their respective classes and have been extensively tested in various conditions.
Starting with the Continental AllSeasonContact, this tyre has an overall rating of 90% and is manufactured in Slovakia, Czech Republic, and France. It has performed exceptionally well in numerous tests, securing top positions in the rankings. Some of the tests include Autobild AllSeason tyre test, where it ranked 5th out of 27 tyres, with its strengths highlighted in snow cornering, snow traction, rolling resistance, and aquaplaning. In the ADAC Test, the AllSeasonContact ranked 2nd out of 9 tyres, excelling in fuel efficiency, ice braking, ice lateral guidance, snow handling, snow traction, and wet circle cornering. The AllSeasonContact also secured the 1st position in tests conducted by ACE and Autoklub ČR, and AutoMotorSport.
On the other hand, the Nokian WeatherProof has an overall rating of 81% and is manufactured in Finland. Although not as highly ranked as the Continental AllSeasonContact, the Nokian WeatherProof has shown strong performance in various tests. In the Autobild AllSeason tyre test, it ranked 9th out of 27 tyres, with its strengths in aquaplaning, rolling resistance, and snow performance. In the ADAC Test, the WeatherProof ranked 4th out of 9 tyres, with strengths in snow braking, snow traction, and aquaplaning. The tyre also ranked 4th in the ACE test and 2nd in the Autoklub ČR test, while ranking 6th in the AutoMotorSport test.
Comparing their performance in mutual tests, the Continental AllSeasonContact has consistently outperformed the Nokian WeatherProof, securing higher rankings in most of the tests conducted. The AllSeasonContact has been praised for its excellent all-round performance, fuel efficiency, and superior winter and aquaplaning properties.
However, the Nokian WeatherProof should not be discounted as the tyre has proven to be a strong contender with its impressive snow performance and aquaplaning resistance. The Nokian WeatherProof also boasts a relatively low rolling resistance, which translates to better fuel efficiency as well.
In conclusion, based on the test results and overall ratings, the Continental AllSeasonContact seems to hold a slight edge over the Nokian WeatherProof. The AllSeasonContact's superior performance in most tests and its well-rounded capabilities make it a more appealing choice for those seeking a reliable and efficient all-season tyre. Nonetheless, the Nokian WeatherProof offers solid performance, particularly in snow and aquaplaning situations, making it a viable option for those prioritizing these driving conditions.
