Comparison: Sava Intensa UHP 2 vs. Barum Bravuris 5 HM vs. Semperit Speed-Life vs. Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 vs. Continental PremiumContact 7

Today we're taking a closer look at two summer tyres—The Sava Intensa UHP 2 and the Barum Bravuris 5 HM. Both of these models have a unique set of benefits and shortcomings, so let's dive in and compare them closely.


The Sava Intensa UHP 2 is a well-rated model, with a performance rating of 67%. It provides excellent safety reserves to tackle aquaplaning, displays stable ride behavior on dry surfaces and impresses with short dry and wet braking distances. Reviewers also highlight its good comfort and affordability.


According to Autobild and ADAC's rigorous testing, the Sava Intensa UHP 2 consistently performed well, finding its strengths in preventing noise disturbances. It earned respectable positions in their tests, ranking 28th out of 50 tyres in Autobild and 12th out of 17 tyres in ADAC. However, this tyre's notable weakness is its slightly reduced durability and some shortcomings on wet surfaces.


On the other hand, we have the Barum Bravuris 5 HM, a tyre produced by Barum. It did not perform as well with an overall rating of 39%. This model has been replaced by the Barum Bravuris 6, indicating enhancements have been made to this line over time.


As per test data, the Barum Bravuris 5 HM did not fare well in Autobild's tests, landing in the 42nd position out of 50 tyres. Similarly, it grabbed the 15th position out of 17 in ADAC's testing, resulting in a less than ideal overall result.


In conclusion, the Sava Intensa UHP 2 edges out the Barum Bravuris 5 HM, offering superior performance and safety features. While Barum Bravuris 5 HM has some catching up to do in terms of performance, its successor, the Bravuris 6, may present a fresh opportunity for the brand.


When choosing between these two summer tyres, your decision will depend on individual priorities such as safety, cost-effectiveness, and noise level concerns. Be sure to consider all factors to find a tyre that best suits your unique needs.
