Comparison: Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 vs. Toyo Proxes Comfort vs. Michelin e.Primacy vs. Continental UltraContact NXT

In this article, we are comparing the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 to the Toyo Proxes Comfort. Both of these tyres are from renowned manufacturers, Goodyear and Toyo, and are perfect for the summer season for your cars.


The Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 is a successor to the Efficient Grip Performance and has been tested extensively by various portals. It scored well in terms of its comfort, mileage, price value ratio, and handling with an overall score of 87% on our tests. However, we found its aquaplaning resistance to be slightly average, and it demonstrated extended dry braking according to some reviews. In the ADAC test, it took the first place out of 50 tyres, and in the autobild test, it took the 13th place out of 53 tyres.


On the other hand, the Toyo Proxes Comfort, also a summer tyre, scored 72% overall in our tests. It demonstrated solid handling power, dry braking ability, and provided good comfort - enough to be specifically named in its product title. Its strengths were found in areas such as its dynamic, wet and dry handling, its short braking distances and low rolling noise, and even received praise for its price value ratio. On the downside, the Toyo Proxes showed reduced mileage and extended wet braking on some test websites. In the Autobild test, the Toyo Proxes Comfort took the 17th place out of 53 tyres, and in the ADAC test, it came in 14th position out of 50 tyres.


Based on the tests carried out by multiple organizations, the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 seems to outperform its competitor with stronger results covering a variety of important features, including handling, comfort, and value for money. The Toyo Proxes Comfort is still a commendable choice, particularly for those who prioritize dry handling conditions and noise performance. X

Neither tyre is followed by a newer model, so the Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 and the Toyo Proxes Comfort are currently the latest models in their respective lineups.


Remember to take into account your exact vehicle specifications, driving conditions and habits before making a choice between the two tyres. No matter which of these tyres you decide to purchase, both come from reputable manufacturers offering high-quality, reliable and durable products.
