Comparison: Sava Intensa UHP 2 vs. Yokohama Advan Sport V107 vs. Uniroyal RainSport 5

When it comes to summer tyres, benchmark tests separate the impactful from the insufficient. On that note, let's inspect two competitors: Sava Intensa UHP 2 and Yokohama Advan Sport V107.

Firstly, the Sava Intensa UHP 2, a successor to the well-regarded Sava Intensa UHP, boasting an impressive rating of 67% in our tests. The most significant positives noted were its short dry braking distance and low rolling resistance, which were repeatedly praised in the Autobild tests. However, it is compromised by some downsides. Its tendency to understeer during wet and dry handling, coupled with a moderate aquaplaning reserve, can detract from the drive experience. Nevertheless, a note on the budget-friendly price of this tyre from Sava may make it a suitable option for cost-conscious drivers.

Turning attention to Yokohama Advan Sport V107, this tyre lags slightly behind the Sava model with a rating of 59%. The strength of this summer tyre lies in its dynamic dry handling and short braking distances on both wet and dry surfaces – a feature that elevated it to rank 4 in a field of 50 tested tyres by Autobild. However, all is not perfect; significant drawbacks include a reduced service life and a heftier price tag. Further, the very high rolling resistance is something to consider when thinking about fuel efficiency. Still, those seeking performance may find the additional cost justified for this tyre by Yokohama.

Summing up, the Sava Intensa UHP 2 delivers excellent dry braking with a beneficial low rolling resistance, scoring highest in our evaluations. Meanwhile, Yokohama Advan Sport V107 shines with top-notch braking in both wet and dry conditions, but may strain the wallet a bit more and offers less economical rolling resistance. In conclusion, both models have strengths and weaknesses; the right choice will ultimately depend on each driver's unique needs and priorities.
