The Continental AllSeasonContact and the Nokian Seasonproof are versatile all-round tyres made by prominent tyre manufacturers, Continental and Nokian, respectively. This comparison uses extensive test data to provide insights into the strengths and weaknesses of both models, helping you choose the perfect tyre for your needs.
The Continental AllSeasonContact, made in Slovakia, Czech Republic, and France, performed admirably in numerous tests, often ranking in the top positions. For example, it cinched the second position in the Autoklub ČR and ARBÖ tests and seventh in Autobild. The tyre excelled particularly in 'Aquaplaning - cross', 'Dry handling', 'Comfort', 'Wet circle cornering', and 'Snow braking', displaying consistent performance in various conditions. However, it showed some shortcomings in 'Dry braking' and 'Snow handling', indicating room for improvement.
On the other hand, the Nokian Seasonproof featured impressive characteristics like 'Exterior noise', 'Snow braking', and 'Snow handling', which were highly praised in the Autobild test. However, it also had some downsides, most notably extended braking distances on wet and dry surfaces, as noted in the autobild 2021 and autobild 2022 summaries.
Both tyres demonstrated strong winter characteristics, but their performance on dry surfaces seemed to fall a bit short. The Continental AllSeasonContact was praised for its 'stable wet handling' and 'low rolling resistance', but it underperformed when it came to 'dry handling' and 'economic efficiency'. Likewise, the Nokian Seasonproof stood out for its 'convincing driving characteristics on ice and snow', 'good aquaplaning qualities', and 'stable dry handling', but it was criticized for 'extended braking distances on wet and dry roads'.
Despite their distinctive strengths and weaknesses, both the Continental AllSeasonContact and Nokian Seasonproof offer sound performance for drivers who require durable, all-round tyres. From our data, it's evident that the Continental AllSeasonContact particularly shines in mixed conditions, while the Nokian Seasonproof is most reliable in winter scenarios. Keep in mind that the Continental AllSeasonContact is rated 76% by us.
Please note that neither of these tyres have a specifically reported newer model that has replaced them. You may wish to check the manufacturers' websites for any updated versions.
