Let's compare two allround tyres: The Michelin CrossClimate 2 and the Toyo Celsius AS2. Both are made by reputable manufacturers, Michelin and Toyo respectively, and have been put to the test in several comparisons.


Michelin CrossClimate 2
The Michelin CrossClimate 2, made in Italy and Spain, is a top-rated tyre in our collection, scoring 93% in our ratings. It's the successor to the Michelin CrossClimate. It performed well in several tests, securing impressive positions. According to the 'Autobild 2024' test, the strengths of this tyre include secure and precise performance on dry and winter roads, high mileage prediction, the least wear and tear in the test, low weight, and low fuel consumption. However, it showed slight weaknesses on wet roads.


Based on data from other tests like 'AUTOBILD' and 'ADAC', the tyre secured 4th position out of 37 and 16 tyres respectively. In comparison, the 'TyreReviews.com 2023' summarises the tyre as the test winner with excellent dry braking, grip in dry condition, aquaplaning resistance, snow braking, snow traction, and comfort. However, it indicates 'average wet braking and wet handling' as key weaknesses.


Toyo Celsius AS2
The Toyo Celsius AS2 tyre, made in Japan, scored a rating of 54% in our review. In the 'Autobild 2024' test, it showed strengths like high mileage prediction, low wear and tear, low weight, and low fuel consumption. However, it faltered in performance on dry, wet, and winter roads. In 'AUTOBILD' and 'ADAC' tests, it ranked 12th out of 37 and 16 tyres respectively.


In 'TyreReviews.com 2023', the tyre's strengths are listed as good dry braking and reasonable aquaplaning resistance. However, it falls short on grip levels in wet and snow conditions, comfort, and has higher rolling resistance.


Verdict
Overall, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 appears to have an upper hand over the Toyo Celsius AS2, judging from test results and ratings, but the choice ultimately depends on your specific use circumstances. It shows superior performance in dry and winter conditions and better rating scores. However, Toyo Celsius AS2 could be more economical with its higher mileage prediction, despite the lower grip in wet and snow conditions.
