We're reviewing the Ceat 4 SeasonDrive tyre and the Dunlop Sport All Season tyre, comparing their performance in tests and presenting you with a concise verdict.
Manufactured in India, the Ceat 4 SeasonDrive has a rating of 33% in our tests. Test results show strengths like good mileage, quiet rolling noise, and a competitive price point. The latter should appeal to budget-conscious buyers. However, the tyre underperforms in winter conditions. It presented limited side grip on snow and extended braking distances in wet conditions.
On the other hand, the French-made Dunlop Sport All Season performed remarkably better overall, with a rating of 62%. According to the AutoBild test, it ranks 7th out of 35 tyres, marking significant superiority over the Ceat tyre which placed 34th. The Dunlop tyre stood out for its comfort, wet circle cornering, and dry handling. It has well-rounded handling characteristics on both wet and dry tarmac, low rolling resistance, and a commendable ride comfort. Nonetheless, it has been criticised for its understeering in snowy conditions, its mediocre resistance to hydroplaning, and slightly elongated dry braking distances.
Comparatively, Dunlop Sport All Season beats the Ceat 4 SeasonDrive in overall performance metrics. However, if you're hunting for a more affordable all-season tyre that provides solid performance, the Ceat 4 SeasonDrive is worth considering, though it underdelivers when it comes to winter driving.
Do note that neither of these models has been replaced by newer variants. For more tyre options, check out the respective manufacturers - Ceat and Dunlop.
In conclusion, while the Dunlop Sport All Season scores higher overall and leads in many categories, the Ceat 4 SeasonDrive offers reasonable performance at a pocket-friendly price. Depending on your specific needs and budget, both models are worth considering.
