Comparison: Fulda MultiControl vs. Kleber Quadraxer 2 vs. Michelin CrossClimate 2 vs. Hankook ION FlexClimate

The following write-up takes a close look at two prominent all-season tyres that have gained popularity for their undeniable performances: the Fulda MultiControl by Fulda and the Kleber Quadraxer 2 by Kleber.

The Fulda MultiControl is a trusted choice for many drivers. Despite not having a rating from our test, it still holds its position well against the competition in the market. In the "Autobild" test, out of 27 tyres, the Fulda MultiControl stood a respectable 13th. However, it is vital to note that this model hasn't been replaced by any newer models yet and continues to sustain in this competitive market.

Shifting our focus to Kleber Quadraxer 2, this allround tyre shows a commendable performance for its dominance in snowy conditions. Having an overall rating of 5% from our test, it's undeniable that drivers can rely on them for an exceptional driving experience. Outperforming the Fulda MultiControl in the "Autobild" test, the Kleber Quadraxer 2 ranked 11th. Its excellent features like exterior noise, snow braking, snow cornering, snow handling and snow traction offers a safe and comfortable drive in winter conditions. However, this tyre has a drawback — limited reserves during curve aquaplaning. The Kleber Quadraxer 2 was phased out by its newer model, the Kleber Quadraxer 3.

The verdict of the comparison brings to light the strengths and weaknesses of these two tyres. While the Fulda MultiControl consistently provides a balanced performance, it doesn’t have any highlighted features. The Kleber Quadraxer 2, on the other hand, proves to be a winter specialist with its performance on snowy surfaces but falls short in terms of reserves during curve aquaplaning.

In conclusion, if one is expecting snowy conditions more often, the Kleber Quadraxer 2 or its newer variant, the Kleber Quadraxer 3, would be an ideal fit. If the overall steady performance is what matters without a specific need to excel in snowy conditions, the Fulda MultiControl could be your tire of choice. This comparison aims to help drivers make an informed decision on their tyre purchases fitting their specific driving conditions and preferences.
