Ranked #6 of 9
The Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun finished 6th out of 9 competitors in a recent evaluation, showing a solid if somewhat dated performance across safety-related assessments. Despite being branded as an eco-friendly option, it surprisingly exhibited the highest rolling resistance in the test. Its prowess was noticeable in aquaplaning resistance, specifically in cross aquaplaning, where it achieved the top score. Additionally, it excelled in dry lane changing, showcasing its strengths in specific critical conditions. However, its overall performance on wet surfaces was less impressive, with significant understeer, large steering angles, and somewhat erratic load change reactions, culminating in a moderate grip level and a tendency to oversteer when pushed. On dry surfaces, despite a commendable time in the slalom, its overall driving behavior was hampered by a conservative but sluggish understeer, contradicting its eco-friendly moniker with its high rolling resistance.
