Today we are going to compare two all-season tyres: the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 and the Nokian WeatherProof. Both tyres have been tested in various conditions, and we will summarize their strengths and weaknesses based on the test results.

The Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 is a successor to the Hankook Kinergy 4S, produced in South Korea. Our rating for this tyre is 88%, which shows its high performance in various conditions. On the other hand, the Nokian WeatherProof is a Finnish tyre with an 81% rating. Let's dive deeper into their performance in individual tests.

Autobild Test

In the Autobild test, which included 27 different tyres, the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 achieved the 4th position, displaying excellent performance in aquaplaning (both cross and longitudinal), wet handling, and snow handling. On the other hand, the Nokian WeatherProof landed in the 9th position, with its best features including aquaplaning (cross), rolling resistance, snow braking, snow handling and snow traction.

According to Autobild 2020's summary, the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 showcases convincing driving properties on wet surfaces, good snow qualities, short wet and dry braking distances, and very good reserves in aquaplaning. However, it has a mediocre mileage and satisfactory driving comfort.

ACE Test

The ACE test, which included eight tyres, placed the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 in the 5th position. In this test, the tyre performed well in aquaplaning (both cross and longitudinal), dry handling, objective dry handling, and snow handling. The Nokian WeatherProof was ranked 4th in the ACE test and showed strengths in aquaplaning (both cross and longitudinal) and dry handling.

Verdict

Based on the comparison of these two all-season tyres, the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 appears to be the overall winner. With its impressive performance in wet and snowy conditions, it offers better aquaplaning resistance and handling capabilities. However, potential buyers should keep in mind its limitations in mileage and driving comfort.

The Nokian WeatherProof might be the right choice for drivers who prioritize eco-friendliness with its lower rolling resistance. It also performs well in snow handling and braking, making it a decent choice for colder climates. Nevertheless, it ranks lower than the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 H750 in overall performance.
