Let's delve into a comparison between two industry-leading all-round tyres: the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 and the Michelin CrossClimate 2. Both tyres were designed by renowned manufacturers Bridgestone and Michelin respectively and made in Italy and Spain.
The Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 received an impressive rating of 91% from our experts. It particularly excelled in tests judging dry braking, dry handling, wet braking, and wet circle cornering, earning it the top spot in the vast AutoBild test out of 37 tyres. In the Die Reifentester and SPORTAUTO tests, this tyre maintained positions 2 and 3 respectively, and it also received praise for its comfort and wet braking abilities in Autobild. On the downside, it showed room for improvement in snow performance and rolling resistance, and its premium came at a high price per kilometre.
Moving onto the Michelin CrossClimate 2, our experts rated this tyre slightly higher, at 93%. It was praised for its winter capabilities with exceptional handling and braking in snowy conditions. This made it the top tyre in the Autobild test out of 16 and second in the ALVOLANTE assessment. This tyre also demonstrated good grip in dry conditions, high aquaplaning resistance, and the lowest noise and rolling resistance in tests. However, its wet braking performance was longer than competitors, and its high purchase price carried a significant cost per kilometre.
When comparing these two models, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 generally ranks higher in tests, scoring particularly well in winter conditions, making it a solid choice for those prioritising winter driving. On the other hand, the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 stands out for superb wet and dry performance, suited for drivers valuing control and predictability under varied road conditions.
Note: No new models have replaced either of these tyres yet, so they are still current in their respective manufacturer's lineup.
In conclusion, both tyres offer strong performance across the board, with their strengths lying in different areas. Your choice will ultimately depend on your specific driving conditions and preferences.
