Comparison: Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 vs. Fulda EcoControl HP2 vs. Michelin e.Primacy vs. Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2

Let's compare two prominent summer tyre models: The Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 and the Fulda EcoControl HP2. Both are successors to popular models and have shown significant developments over their predecessors.


The Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2, belonging to Goodyear, ranked notably good in diverse tyre tests and exceled with an excellent overall rating of 87%. This tyre stood 13th in the 53-tyre Autobild test. Its best features as per varied test feedbacks include superior mileage, commendable price-value ratio and a remarkable level of comfort. This model doesn't have a noted successor yet. It replaces the former Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance.


The Fulda EcoControl HP2 from Fulda, performed relatively well in a wide array of tests, attaining an overall rating of 79%. It was placed 20th out of 53 tyres by Autobild testing and 8th in the ADAC test. This tyre is particularly praised for its exterior noise level, being quieter-than-average, and for its aptitude in cross aquaplaning scenarios. However, it was noted to have certain weaknesses on wet roads. The EcoControl HP2 is a successor to the Fulda EcoControl HP model.


In Autobild's test, the Efficient Grip Performance 2 beats the Fulda EcoControl HP2 in overall ranking. It also fared better in the ADAC test, standing 4th compared to Fulda’s 8th position, furthering its standings as a more overall dependable summer tyre.


In conclusion, both tyres have their unique strengths and succeed in different categories. Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 seems to have an upper hand in mileage, price-value ratio, and comfort, making it a beneficial choice for long commutes and daily drivers. On the other hand, Fulda EcoControl HP2's more silent running and better aquaplaning characteristics may come in handy for specific terrain and preference requirements. While a mutual comparison of the two puts Goodyear ahead, the verdict fundamentally depends on individual driving needs.
