Ranked #3 of 17
Securing a remarkable third place out of 17 contenders, the Kumho Ecsta PS71 demonstrated a compelling performance, earning a final rating of 'Good'. This tire shines especially on wet surfaces, where it excels in managing aquaplaning, both in cross and longitudinal situations, uniquely standing out for its superior handling in these challenging conditions. Its well-balanced nature is complemented by an excellent performance in wet braking and an admirable ability to navigate through corners on wet roads with assured grip and control. While its dry performance is commendable, highlighted by satisfactory braking and handling capabilities, it achieves a 'Good' grade overall in dry conditions. Although its interior noise level and fuel consumption were judged as satisfactory, placing it in the mid-range of the tested group, it slightly fell below average in terms of wear. This tire notably lacks any significant weaknesses, proving itself as a reliable choice for drivers seeking a balanced performance with a particular strength in wet conditions.
