Comparison: Linglong Sport Master vs. Sava Intensa UHP 2 vs. Continental PremiumContact 7

When it comes to summer performance tyres, we take two contenders head-to-head in this comparison: the Linglong Sport Master and Sava Intensa UHP 2. Made by Linglong and Sava respectively, these tyres showcase the brands' commitment to quality, durability, and innovation.

The Linglong Sport Master is a solid choice, sporting a rating of 72% on our scale. In the Autobild test, it took the 7th position out of 50 tyres, which is commendable. The tyre particularly shines for its exterior noise reduction. However, it shows some weaknesses in terms of comfort and dry handling, according to the Autobild 2023 summary. Despite its downsides, the Linglong Sport Master still offers reliability and efficiency, making it a good choice for drivers looking for a UHP tyre.

The Sava Intensa UHP 2, on the other hand, replaced the Sava Intensa UHP, scoring overall 67% on our rating scale. In the Autobild test, it ended up 11th. When it comes to its strengths, this tyre stands out for its short dry braking distances and low rolling resistance. However, it has a couple of downsides. According to the Autobild 2023 summary, it tends to underperform in wet and dry handling and offers moderate aquaplaning resistance.

Comparing the two, the Linglong Sport Master provides a superior exterior noise reduction but lacks in overall comfort. The Sava Intensa UHP 2, in contrast, offers better dry braking, but its handling capability on wet and dry surfaces falls short. If we strictly follow the numbers, the Linglong Sport Master would win by a small margin due to its higher rating and performance in tests.

Nevertheless, both tyres have their pros and cons, and the choice largely depends on the personal preference and driving conditions of the user. Before making a decision, we recommend considering all factors and perhaps consult a tyre specialist.
