Ranked #10 of 16
Finishing 10th out of 16, the Apollo ASPIRE XP WINTER secured a 'Satisfactory' rating in its evaluation. This tire was lauded for offering overall secure characteristics on wet roads, boasting a high predicted mileage with minimal wear, and demonstrating low fuel consumption. However, it exhibited mild weaknesses in precision and boundary behavior on dry roads, alongside slight challenges in wet handling, coupled with a higher tire weight. While it performed commendably in braking and aquaplaning on wet surfaces, its precision in handling fell short of achieving a higher rating. Its performance on winter roads was deemed satisfactory, narrowly missing out on a higher rating in snow braking but receiving satisfactory ratings in snow traction, ice braking, and snow handling. Environmental assessment nearly reached a good rating, thanks to its good predicted mileage and low wear, but its subpar efficiency rating impacted its overall environmental score. The weight of the tire, being over the average, also affected its efficiency negatively despite its acceptable fuel consumption levels.
