Comparison: Sava Intensa UHP 2 vs. Bridgestone Turanza T005 vs. Continental PremiumContact 7

Our tyre comparison takes a close look at two summer tyres—the Sava Intensa UHP 2 and the Bridgestone Turanza T005. These tyres have been tested vigorously in a range of conditions and evaluated based on various performance aspects.


Sava Intensa UHP 2, following the previous Sava Intensa UHP, is a reliable summer tyre with secure aquaplaning safety reserves and stable dry handling. According to the Autobild 2022 and ADAC tests, the tyre showcases very good dry braking and offers a comfortable, smooth ride. In terms of noise level, it is rather quiet and provides a value-for-money experience for the user. However, the weak point of this Sava's model is its limited lifespan due to somewhat increased wear. With a 67% overall rating on our site, this Sava tyre is placed at the 8th position in the Promobil test out of 8 tyres tested, and 17th in the Autobild test out of 53 tyres.


On the other hand, the Bridgestone Turanza T005, a top-rated summer tyre from one of the most popular tyre manufacturers, holds a remarkable overall rating of 92% on our site. Bridgestone has created this model with superior dry and wet handling properties. Besides, as Autobild 2022 confirmed, it offers excellent grip, precise steering response, and shorter dry and wet braking distances. Its rolling resistance is another strong feature. Nevertheless, like the Sava model, it also has a slight drawback due to its reduced lifespan. The Bridgestone tyre scored much better in the Promobil and Autobild comparison tests, ranking 4th and 10th respectively.


In conclusion, with the synthesized data from all the tests, it becomes clear that the Bridgestone Turanza T005 outperforms the Sava Intensa UHP 2 in test positions and main attributes. While Sava offers a good value for the money and excels in aquaplaning safety, Bridgestone’s advanced handling properties and substantial overall performance make it a preferred choice for many drivers. However, both tyres seem to have a common weakness—inadequate tyre life due to certain wear issues.
