Comparison: Nokian Powerproof vs. Bridgestone Turanza T005 vs. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6

Let's take a look at two popular tyre models, the Nokian Powerproof and the Bridgestone Turanza T005. With our focus being on overall performance and test results, we've compared these two sets within a variety of tests.

Coming from a well-known Finnish manufacturer Nokian, the Powerproof tyre is known for safety and excellent handling. Our rating for the Powerproof was 71%, with strengths like superb dry steering response and precise handling on dry surfaces. In the AutoMotorSport test, it held the 7th place out of 11, which shows some room for improvement. A standout area here was its lacking aquaplaning security, noted as a con in the 'automotorsport 2022' review.

The Bridgestone Turanza T005, produced by multinational manufacturer Bridgestone, outperformed the Powerproof in our rating with a hefty 89%. Its most appreciated features are its rolling resistance and wet handling. It took the 6th position in the AutoMotorSport test, thus outperforming the Powerproof. A consistent result for this tyre is its exemplary wet handling and slightly shorter wet braking distances. However, it has a minor weakness with aquaplaning and slightly reduced performance in running water.

Meanwhile, the 'Autobild 2022' test placed the Powerproof at the 4th and the Turanza T005 at the 6th position out of 10. The Powerproof displayed good aquaplaning properties and effective wet handling, but had reduced stability on dry surfaces. The Turanza T005, on the other hand, showed good wet and dry handling, including superior aquaplaning protection and precise controls but also somewhat limited tread life was noted as a con.

The 'Gute-Fahrt' test results match those from 'Autobild 2022', with Powerproof and Turanza T005 taking the 4th and 6th positions respectively. Both tyres show excellent rolling resistance, one of the primary factors for fuel efficiency.

To sum up, both Nokian Powerproof and Bridgestone Turanza T005 are good, quality summer tyres. Considering the overall performance, short braking distances on the wet, and higher rating, the Bridgestone Turanza T005 is slightly above the Nokian Powerproof.

If aquaplaning security and fuel efficiency are higher on your list, you might want to consider the Nokian Powerproof. Make sure to choose your tyres based on your specific needs to get the most out of your driving experience.
