Let’s take a closer look at the Toyo Celsius AS2 and GoodYear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 all-season tyres.
The Toyo Celsius AS2 is a tyre designed in Japan that received an overall rating of 54%. It landed a 12th position on the AUTOBILD and an 11th position on the ADAC mutual tyre tests. Despite its excellent performance in dry braking and reasonable resistance to aquaplaning, the tyre is known for its low comfort levels and high rolling resistance. It also seems to struggle when it comes to grip in wet and snowy conditions. The test results also highlight the Toyo's stable dry handling and short snow braking distances. An overall recurring negative to note across all tests was its average performance in winter conditions.
On the other hand, the GoodYear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 tyre, produced in Slovenia and France, boasts an impressive 86% overall rating. This tyre was ranked highly by AUTOBILD (6th place) and took 1st place in the Autobild and ADAC mutual tests. Highlighted for its balanced performance and excellent wet handling, as well as for its snow performance and low fuel consumption, the GoodYear tyre is a heavyweight. However, some tests indicated that it may have a slight weakness for dry conditions.
Built with special regard for comfort, the GoodYear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 had lower rolling resistance, and a suggestion of better fuel efficiency compared to the Toyo Celsius AS2.
GoodYear managed to improve upon their previous models, specifically the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-2, offering a tyre that is excellent for all-round use. It's worth noting that while the Toyo Celsius AS2 offers good value for its reasonable price, the GoodYear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3, though more expensive, offers superior performance overall.
In conclusion, the GoodYear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 consistently outperformed the Toyo Celsius AS2 in most of the tests in multiple areas such as comfort, wet and snow handling. The Toyo Celsius AS2, being more suited for dry conditions, could offer value for users residing in less rainy/snowy climates, or budget-conscious consumers. Always remember to consider your specific driving needs when choosing tyres.
