Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun

Being usually one of the cheaper tyres in the test, the japanese Falken still delivers very safe characteristics for everyday driving. It suffers a bit in the efficiency department, with higher rolling resistance and limited mileage.

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.

Ranked #7 of 20
Finishing in 7th place out of 20 competitors, the Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun demonstrated commendable performance in a recent evaluation, earning a final rating of 'Good'. This tyre was particularly noted for its impressive safety margins in aquaplaning situations and dynamic dry handling capabilities, accompanied by short stopping distances on dry surfaces, which indeed made it the best performer in the dry handling discipline. However, its performance was tempered by a limited lifespan, which prevented it from securing a higher position in the overall ranking. Despite this drawback, the tyre's strengths in critical safety and performance aspects underscore its suitability for drivers prioritizing handling and aquaplaning resistance.

Finishing 8 out of 10 competitors, the Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun achieved a final rating of 'Satisfactory.' This ranking underscores its performance in various tested disciplines, with particular strengths being its balanced and stable handling on dry surfaces and good safety margins in aquaplaning situations. Its lower rolling resistance was also noteworthy, coupled with an attractive price level. However, it demonstrated understeer on wet surfaces and a delayed response in steering behavior. The braking performance on dry roads was deemed average. Remarkably, the tire was unrivaled in its performance in aquaplaning - longitudinal and rolling resistance, showcasing its specialized capabilities in those areas.

Ranked #3 of 12
Securing a commendable 3rd place out of 12 in its category, the Falken ZIEX ZE310 Ecorun impressed with its performance, earning an 'Exemplary' final rating. This tire showcases excellent off-road handling and dynamic capabilities, accompanied by robust aquaplaning resistance and secure dry handling, attributed to its good terrain qualities. Although it provides shorter braking distances, a noteworthy aspect of its performance, it does exhibit moderate lateral grip on wet surfaces. Unique among its strengths is its unparalleled performance in gravel traction, setting it apart in this specific discipline.

Ranked #6 of 50
The Falken ZIEX ZE310 ECORUN distinguished itself among 50 competitors by finishing 6th, achieving a notable final rating of 'Good'. This tire showcases its strengths by delivering an impressive performance on both wet and dry surfaces, achieving top marks for its reliable handling and short braking distances on dry roads. Its commendable performance extends to wet conditions, where it also secures good ratings in braking, aquaplaning, and handling, though it slightly underperforms in lateral aquaplaning. Despite these strong safety qualities, the tire does face criticism for its environmental impact. It demonstrates satisfactory longevity and wear but is critiqued for its weight which impacts its efficiency negatively. Moreover, its sustainability aspect, particularly linked to its production, receives a modest assessment. This comprehensive evaluation underscores its balanced capability on the road while drawing attention to areas for improvement in environmental and sustainability metrics.
