The Nexen N Blue 4 Season 2, here, is an evolution from its predecessor the Nexen N Blue 4 Season, while the Toyo Celsius AS2, here, arrives with features that make these two tyres competitors in the allround tyre category.
Our review rates the Nexen N Blue 4 Season 2 at 62%. Manufactured in the Czech Republic, this tyre stands out for its mileage and price/value. The AUTOBILD test positions it solidly at 12th out of 16, a leap from its previous 16th position out of 37. The tyre's strengths are its balanced dry handling and exceptional mileage, all at an affordable price. However, it falls short with mediocre aquaplaning reserves and understeering behaviour in snow and wet conditions. This tyre, provided by reputable Nexen, doesn't currently have a newer model replacing it.
On the other side, the Toyo Celsius AS2 has been rated at 54%. Manufactured in Japan, it clinched the 14th position out of 16 in the AUTOBILD test. Notably, its performance on dry road conditions and high mileage are its main highlights. However, its overall winter qualities and wet performance were considered average, with extended wet braking distances observed. This tyre is known for its comfort, exterior noise, and price/value. Despite its few shortcomings, it is still a choice to consider given its unique strengths. This model brought to us by Toyo does not currently have a replacement model.
In summary, both tyres have shown excellent performance in their specific areas of strength. The Nexen N Blue 4 Season 2 impresses with its dry handling and mileage, while the Toyo Celsius AS2 shines for its comfort and value for money. Based on our ratings and the test results, the Nexen N Blue 4 Season 2 slightly edges out the Toyo Celsius AS2. However, the ultimate decision rests on the specific needs and preferences of the individual driver.
