If you're unsure about which tyre to choose between the Fulda EcoControl HP2 and the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2, this comparison will help you decide. Both tyres are summer models and are the successors to the Fulda EcoControl HP and Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance respectively.
The Fulda EcoControl HP2, manufactured by Fulda, received an overall rating of 79%. Amongst its strengths were its performance in relation to exterior noise and resistance to cross aquaplaning. It held its own in the Autobild test, securing the 20th position out of 53 tyres. However, it does have room to improve, especially when it comes to wet conditions. In the ADAC test, it ranked 8th out of 15, again highlighting its ability to resist aquaplaning and its low noise production.
On the other hand, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2, crafted by Goodyear, bagged a commendable score of 87%. The tyre received praise for its excellent mileage, fair price value, and prominent comfort levels. Thus, it made a strong impression in the Autobild test, finishing in the 13th position. The tyre also performed well in the ADAC test, finishing 4th in a group of 15.
To summarize, although both tyres have merits, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 seems to have an edge over the Fulda EcoControl HP2 in terms of overall performance, comfort and value. If you're looking for a tyre with low exterior noise and great resistance to cross aquaplaning, then the Fulda EcoControl HP2 may suit your needs, keeping in mind its less stellar wet road handling. On the other hand, if you value high mileage, comfort and value for price, then the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 might be the better choice.
In conclusion, your final choice should depend on which features you prioritize, your driving habits, and your exact needs.
