In the summer tyre category, we will compare two strong contenders: the Continental PremiumContact 7 and the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127.
Continental PremiumContact 7 got the highest rating (100%) in our tests. This tyre excelled particularly in dry and wet conditions, impressing with its braking and handling. Despite its high performance, it showed a bit of a drop-off when worn and lost some of its sporty appeal. However, it still came out strong in most tests, claiming the top spot in the Autozeitung and second position in the ACE tests. On the downside, a high price and less engaging feeling during a spirited drive were noted. Despite these minor flaws, its strength in handling wet conditions and energy use makes it a top choice in the Continental tyre range.
Moving on to the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127, this tyre also delivered impressive results, with an overall rating of 81%. It was highly commended for its excellent value for money and wet grip performance, as well as energy efficiency. The Hankook tyre had the slowest steering response in the tests, feeling like a comfort-biased tyre instead of an outright sports tyre. It also has one of the lowest aquaplaning resistances in the test. In the Autozeitung tests, the tyre managed to claim the third position. It also came out on top in the Autobild tests, offering convincing performance with agile handling. However, its sub-par mileage led to a downgrade. If you're looking for an affordable tyre with a decent wet grip, the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 from Hankook is worth considering.
In comparison, the Continental PremiumContact 7 seems to have an edge in terms of performance, but the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 makes up for it with its price value. Thus, the best choice would largely depend on what you prioritize: If performance is your top priority, Continental PremiumContact 7 may be the better option. If you're on a budget and still want good performance, Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 would be a suitable choice.
In terms of tests, both tyres had their highs and lows. The Continental PremiumContact 7 consistently performed well, while the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 demonstrated strong performance in certain areas. Overall, both tyres are very capable and offer high-level performance for summer driving conditions.
