When looking at the Toyo Celsius AS2 and the Firestone Multiseason 2, it is important to consider various factors and test results to make an accurate comparison.
Manufactured in Japan, the Toyo Celsius AS2 scored a rating of 54% on our website. On the autoBild test, it grabbed the 12th position out of 37 tyres, excelling particularly in comfort, exterior noise, and price/value. Another test by autoBild in 2024 highlighted its good safety reserves against aquaplaning and high mileage. However, it was noted for its average winter qualities, understeering handling on snowy and wet surfaces, and extended wet braking distances.
On the other hand, the Firestone Multiseason 2, made in Italy and carrying a rating of 58% on our website, came 22nd in the autoBild test out of 37 tyres. In other tests, this tyre achieved notable ovations for its wet handling, excellent grip in all snow tests, and low rolling resistance. However, it falls short in dry braking and offers slightly below average comfort.
When we look at the ADAC test results, the Firestone Multiseason 2 outperforms the Toyo Celsius AS2, securing the 8th position out of 16 while the latter comes in at the 11th position. In another test from Autobild, the Firestone Multiseason 2 also succeeded in terms of rolling resistance.
Summarizing the data from all the tests, both the Toyo Celsius AS2 and Firestone Multiseason 2 have their distinct strengths and weaknesses. The Toyo Celsius AS2 stands strong in terms of comfort, exterior noise and price/value while the Firestone Multiseason 2 is dominant when it comes to grip in snowy conditions and rolling resistance. Depending on personal preferences and driving conditions, a driver may prefer one over the other.
However, overall, the data suggests that the Firestone Multiseason 2 might be a superior choice. It scores higher in our rating, performs better in most of the tests, and shows noteworthy attributes such as excellent snow grip and low rolling resistance. Nevertheless, the final decision should depend on the individual requirements of the driver and the particular conditions in which the tyre is mostly used.
