Ranked #16 of 16
Finishing 16 out of 16 competitors, the Matador MP47 Hectorra 3 didn't shine in its performance, attaining a final rating of 'Satisfactory'. Despite its relatively low fuel consumption, which was a notable positive, it faced significant challenges on both wet and especially dry surfaces when it came to driving behavior, which starkly limited its appeal. Notably, its performance on dry roads was the weakest among the participants, and while it nearly achieved a good rating on wet conditions, it fell short. Interestingly, the tire excelled in terms of interior noise, setting it apart in this specific discipline. Overall, despite being described as recommendable, its limitations on key driving surfaces dampened its competitiveness in the test.
