One key area where these two tyres differ is in our reviews. The Continental PremiumContact 6 achieved a rating of 83%, while the Sava Intensa HP2 only reached 67%.

The Continental PremiumContact 6, which ranks 1st in the ADAC list out of 18 tested tyres and 4th out of 53 in Autobild, has been praised for its superb balanced performance, high driving safety, and good performance on both dry and wet roads. It made a big leap from its previous model, the Continental ContiPremiumContact 5. However, it has shown some weaknesses in the aspect of efficiency. This model has now been replaced by the Continental PremiumContact 7 which offers even more improvements.

On the other hand, the Sava Intensa HP2, although marked as efficient and light, and having an improvement from its predecessor, the Sava Intensa HP, falls short in aspects such as totality, security, and performance on both dry and wet roads. It secured the 12th place out of 18 in the ADAC test and 22nd out of 53 in Autobild. Also noted was its environmental impact and slight weakness in terms of its lifespan and wear and tear.

In summary, the Continental PremiumContact 6 stands out with its excellent balance, high driving safety, and superior performance on dry and wet roads. Despite its minor deficiency with efficiency, this tyre still outperforms the Sava Intensa HP2, especially in terms of driving safety and overall performance. However, for those who prioritise efficiency and lightness in a tyre, the Sava Intensa HP2 may be a viable option.

The choice between Continental's PremiumContact 6 and Sava's Intensa HP2 tyres, thus, highly depends on the particular needs and priorities of each driver.
