Test positions and summaries

• In Autobild test line-ups (total tyres tested: 35–37), the Kleber Quadraxer 3 consistently ranks in the top 10 (positions 4 and 7 across different years), with strengths explicitly noted in aquaplaning resistance, snow braking and comfort.


• The Fulda MultiControl finished much lower (positions 31 and 27 in the compared Autobild tests), indicating notable performance deficits against the field and against the Kleber.

What the tests say about Kleber Quadraxer 3

• Strengths: Excellent aquaplaning resistance (longitudinal), short dry braking distances, very good snow traction and braking, low exterior noise and comfortable ride — features repeatedly praised in Autobild test reports.


• Weaknesses: Recurrent notes about slightly delayed steering response and a tendency toward understeer on wet surfaces. In other words, while safe and stable, it can feel less agile when pushed hard on wet roads.


• Overall verdict for Kleber: balanced winter/dry performance with above-average comfort and safety reserves, making it a strong choice for drivers who need reliable all-round seasonal performance.

What the tests say about Fulda MultiControl

• Strengths: Tests did not highlight notable strengths — the MultiControl placed near the bottom of the comparative fields in Autobild reports.


• Weaknesses: Low overall ranking implies shortcomings in wet handling, braking and winter traction compared with peers. The extremely low aggregated rating (3%) confirms major performance gaps.


• Overall verdict for Fulda: not competitive in the tested allround segment; it lags in critical safety and handling categories and is not recommended where wet braking and winter capability matter.

Head-to-head conclusion: Across mutual tests the Kleber Quadraxer 3 is the clear winner. It scores consistently higher positions and is praised for safety-related metrics (aquaplaning, snow braking, short dry braking) and ride comfort. The Fulda MultiControl falls well behind in comparative rankings and aggregated score, so it cannot match Kleber's balance of safety and comfort.

Recommendation: If you need an allround tyre with proven winter performance, solid wet safety reserves and high comfort, choose the Kleber Quadraxer 3. If considering the Fulda MultiControl, beware of its low comparative scores and prioritize alternatives with stronger test showings.
