Comparison: Vredestein Quatrac vs. Fulda MultiControl vs. Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6
Quick summary: In direct comparison the Vredestein Quatrac is the clear winner — consistently placed in the top ranks of multiple Autobild tests and awarded an overall score of 94% by our review. The Fulda MultiControl trails far behind in the same test series (positions in the mid–20s) and is rated only 3% by our grading. Neither tyre shows a listed replacement model.
How they performed across tests
- Vredestein Quatrac — strong podium and top‑5 finishes in Autobild test runs (position 2/32 and position 5/37 are the published results). Test highlights repeatedly praise its wet handling, aquaplaning resistance (longitudinal and lateral), short wet braking distances and low exterior noise. Autobild summaries call it a “nässespezialist” and emphasize its large safety reserves in all weather, plus good winter qualities and an overall balanced all‑season performance. Minor negatives noted across tests: moderate treadwear (average mileage) and in one report a slightly increased rolling resistance.
- Fulda MultiControl — positioned consistently in the lower third of the same Autobild test fields (positions 26 and 27). The available test indices show the Fulda falling well short of the leaders on key safety metrics; no strengths were highlighted in the supplied summaries. Its low ranking implies weaker wet performance, longer braking distances and limited aquaplaning reserves compared with the Vredestein.
Data synthesis and strengths / weaknesses
- Vredestein Quatrac — strengths: exceptional wet performance (braking, cornering and aquaplaning resistance), quiet ride, agile handling and strong all‑season/winter capabilities. Test reports cite short wet and dry braking, direct steering and good balance across conditions. Weaknesses: average treadwear; some tests mention slightly higher rolling resistance on one occasion.
- Fulda MultiControl — strengths: no clear test strengths are reported in the provided data. Weaknesses: consistently low placings in Autobild tests indicate shortcomings in wet grip, braking and overall safety margins compared with market leaders.
Direct comparison — who wins?
Across every shared test the Vredestein outperforms the Fulda by a wide margin: Quatrac finishes in the top 5 and often on the podium, while the MultiControl sits near the back of the field. On safety‑critical measures (wet braking, aquaplaning resistance and handling) the Vredestein is decisively better. With an overall score of 94% versus 3% the Fulda, the data indicate that the Vredestein Quatrac is the superior choice for drivers prioritising wet weather safety, balanced all‑season performance and comfort. The Fulda MultiControl does not show comparable strengths in these tests and therefore cannot be recommended over the Quatrac for safety‑oriented buyers.
