In this article, we are comparing two popular summer tyres: the Avon ZV7 and the Bridgestone Turanza T005. These tyres are manufactured by Avon Tyres and Bridgestone, respectively. Let's dive into the details and see how they stack up against one another in tyre tests, with focus on their strengths and weaknesses.
The Avon ZV7 is a summer tyre that hasn't been replaced by a newer model. It has an overall rating of 64% on our website. Unfortunately for the ZV7, test results and reviews show several areas of concern. In the ADAC test, it has a low position of 42 out of 50 tested tyres, while in the Autobild tests, it ranks 16th out of 51 tyres. The main drawbacks of the ZV7 are its unbalanced performance, weaknesses on dry roads, poor environmental impact, very low mileage, high wear, and sustainability issues. However, a plus is that it is relatively economical.
On the other hand, the Bridgestone Turanza T005 is a summer touring tyre and has a much better overall rating of 89%. It has an impressive list of pros and very few cons. In the ADAC test, the Turanza T005 ranks 4th out of 50 tested tyres, and in the Autobild tests, it takes the 2nd position out of 51 tyres. The best features of the T005 include its rolling resistance, wet handling, balanced performance on both dry and wet roads, good environmental impact, and high efficiency. The only drawback noted in the tests is the lack of any specific weaknesses, which could be interpreted as the tyre not excelling in any one specific area.
Comparing these two tyres, it's clear that the Bridgestone Turanza T005 outperforms the Avon ZV7 in most of the tests. This can be seen by its higher ranking positions in both the ADAC and Autobild tests. The Turanza T005 particularly stands out with its balanced performance, wet handling, and environmental impact, while the Avon ZV7 struggles in these areas.
In conclusion, if you're looking for a summer tyre that provides good overall performance, wet handling, and environmental benefits, then the Bridgestone Turanza T005 is the clear winner. However, if you simply need a summer tyre and are prioritizing saving money, then the Avon ZV7 could be considered, although other aspects of its performance may be lacking in comparison.
