In the tire market segment, the comparison between the Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 and the Continental PremiumContact 6 is a particularly interesting one. Both tyre models are built for summer conditions, however they have different performances and ratings according to our tests.
The Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 is a model from Yokohama, one of the leading tyre manufacturers. Despite its reputation, our rating for this tyre is slightly underwhelming with 46%. In the comparison test featured on Autobild, the Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 came in 15th place out of a total of 52 tyres reviewed. This is a commendable position, however it does not match up to the high rating and performance of its counterpart, the Continental PremiumContact 6.
The Continental PremiumContact 6, a product of Continental, excels with an impressive rating of 87%. Unlike the Yokohama tyre, the Continental PremiumContact 6 is a touring sub-type tyre and is made in Slovakia, Germany and the Czech Republic. Looking back at its track record, it has successfully replaced the previous model, the Continental ContiPremiumContact 5. Moreover, it firmly secured the 1st position in the Autobild comparison test, clearly outshining the Yokohama Advan Fleva V701.
A noteworthy mention is that the Continental PremiumContact 6 has been replaced by an even newer model, the Continental PremiumContact 7. This suggests a continual commitment to improvement and advancement in tyre technology from Continental.
In conclusion, when comparing the two, the Continental PremiumContact 6 has a clear edge over the Yokohama Advan Fleva V701. Both excel in their individual perks, but the superior test ratings and performance of the Continental tyre make it a more favourable choice for drivers looking for a reliable and high-performing summer tyre.
Regardless, the Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 also presents a viable option for those who prioritise different features in a tyre. As always, the best tyre depends on the unique needs and preferences of each driver.
