Ranked #21 of 21
The Nokian Powerproof secured the 6th position out of 21 competitors in its evaluation, showcasing a commendable performance in several key areas. Testers praised its excellent aquaplaning resistance, convincing dynamic handling in wet conditions, and notably short braking distances. However, the tyre was critiqued for its delayed steering response and reduced stability on dry roads, alongside its limited tread life and high price point. Among the evaluated aspects, it stood out particularly in dry braking, underlining its strong performance in this discipline. Despite some drawbacks, the Nokian Powerproof demonstrated a solid overall capability.
