Let's compare the Continental PremiumContact 7 with the Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun. Both are summer-segment touring tyres, with a commendable performance in multiple tyre tests. Be that as it may, they exhibit different results which set them apart.
The Continental PremiumContact 7, manufactured by Continental, stands out in our ratings with a perfect 100%. This model is an upgrade from the Continental PremiumContact 6 and Continental ContiPremiumContact 5. Made in France, Slovakia, Germany, and Czech Republic, it clinched the top position in the Autobild, Vibilagare, Autozeitung and ADAC tests, outshining a total of up to 55 tyres in some tests. Its strengths are mainly its performance during wet and dry braking, dry and wet handling, and rolling resistance. However, its downsides are its average rolling resistance, average aquaplaning resistance, and increased external noise.
On the other hand, the Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun, produced by Falken, has displayed notable performance as well, but with a slightly lower rating of 81%. Manufactured in Turkey, it secured a commendable 4th to 7th position range amid up to 55 tyres in the Autobild, Vibilagare, Autozeitung and ADAC tests. Some of the tyre's most notable features include its dry handling, aquaplaning resistance, and comfort. Yet, it's not without its shortcomings, which are restricted operation span and high rolling resistance.
In conclusion, the Continental PremiumContact 7 has cemented itself a leading position in multiple tests, making it a strong choice for summer touring tyres. Still, the Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun's performance should not be underestimated, especially when considering its excellent aquaplaning resistance and levels of comfort. So, while the PremiumContact 7 seems to be the preferred choice for enhanced handling under both wet and dry conditions, the ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun could be a better option for those prioritising comfort and aquaplaning resistance.
