Bridgestone Turanza 6
The Turanza 6 is quite a new addition to Bridgestone’s lineup, being introduced in 2023. Featuring the new ENLITEN technology, it should be lighter and have positive effect on fuel efficiency. In the tests, the efficiency is confirmed alongside with higher mileage. That being said, it somehow lacks the performance of other premium tyres, so we would recommend it only when the price is lower.

satisfactory
Ranked #6 of 16
In its debut appearance, the Bridgestone Turanza 6 secured 6th place among 16 competitors, earning a final rating of 'Satisfactory'. The tyre was praised for its excellent aquaplaning resistance, predicted long lifespan, low wear, incredibly light weight, and reduced fuel consumption. However, it demonstrated minor weaknesses on both dry and wet roads which impacted its safety ratings. While its performance in terms of feedback and precision on dry roads left something to be desired, its braking capabilities were noted to be commendably good. On wet surfaces, despite good aquaplaning test results, it fell short in braking distance measurements and handling, with a mediocre grip level that struggled to effectively combine longitudinal and lateral forces. The tyre stood out particularly in aquaplaning - longitudinal and interior noise, showcasing its strengths in both water displacement and providing a quieter ride. Its environmental impact was positively noted, with good points for lifespan, wear, and efficiency, although it missed higher marks for exterior noise and sustainability aspects.

recommended for economical driving
Ranked #9 of 9
The Bridgestone Turanza 6 found itself at the bottom of the ranks, securing 9th position out of 9 competitors. Despite this, it has been acknowledged for its economical driving benefits, thanks to its Enliten technology that ensures efficient rolling, making it an exceptional choice for energy saving. The tire showcases an unparalleled performance in terms of rolling resistance, where it stood out as the best among its peers. However, its performance on wet surfaces revealed only average capabilities, characterized by a moderate level of grip and a tendency for understeer and lively load change reactions, though these were not deemed critical faults. On dry surfaces, the tire's longest braking distance was compensated by its significantly low rolling resistance and comfort. Nonetheless, its handling dynamics were somewhat hindered by increased understeer. Overall, the tire receives a recommendation for those prioritizing economical driving, despite its mixed performance across different conditions.
