The Vredestein Ultrac Satin and the Continental PremiumContact 6 are two top-notch summer tyres offering unique features and impressive performance. This comparison aims to provide insights into their strengths, weaknesses, and overall performance based on various tyre tests.
The Vredestein Ultrac Satin, manufactured in Hungary, didn't receive an overall rating from our tests. Nevertheless, it demonstrated outstanding capabilities in Aquaplaning - longitudal, Exterior noise, and Wet circle cornering during the Autozeitung test where it secured the 6th position among 20 tyres. Furthermore, the ACE test highlighted its Dry driving behavior and Dry handling prowess, even though it ended up at 11th position. However, it lagged in the Automotorsport and Autobild tests, securing the 8th and 12th positions, respectively.
On the other hand, Continental PremiumContact 6, produced in Slovakia, Germany, and the Czech Republic, bagged an impressive 83% rating in our tests. It excelled in the Autozeitung test, especially with regard to Dry steering response, Wet braking, Wet circle cornering, Wet handling - objective, and Wet safety, topping the list of 20. It also performed well in the ACE test, securing 5th place, and shined in the Automotorsport test with a 3rd position. Moreover, it clinched the 1st spot in the Autobild test among 52 tested tyres. Worth noting, the Continental PremiumContact 6 has been replaced by Continental PremiumContact 7 in the newer models.
When considering the mutual test positions and comparing the overall test results, it's clear that the Continental PremiumContact 6 outperforms the Vredestein Ultrac Satin in most aspects. This gives Continental an upper hand, making it a more desirable pick especially for those looking for a reliable and high performing summer tyre. Although, it's important not to dismiss the strong Aquaplaning and noise reduction characteristics of the Vredestein Ultrac Satin.
