The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 is a summer tyre that impresses with its sporty performance and excellent steering feedback. An examination of various test results shows that this tyre, produced by Yokohama, particularly distinguished itself in dry handling tests and demonstrated its resilience through aggressive dry handling circuits. However, some drawbacks have been noted by testers, such as its struggled stopping in wet conditions, which might impact overall performance in cooler climates. This tyre was also noted for being rougher over potholes; potentially indicating comfort issues. Lastly, it had a high rolling resistance that could potentially impact fuel economy.
On the other hand, the Continental PremiumContact 7 excels in almost every aspect. This tyre, part of Continental's impressive range, has scored high in various tests. It was especially praised for having the best wet braking and lowest rolling resistance of all tested tyres, demonstrating formidable control in adverse conditions and making it an energy-efficient choice. Additionally, it performed best in aquaplaning tests, further highlighting its safety aspects. Despite this solid performance, some weaknesses emerged. The tyre's performance notably dropped off when worn, and despite being an improvement over its predecessor, the Continental PremiumContact 6, it was found to be less engaging for drivers seeking a spirited drive.
In head-to-head competitions, the results have been mixed. In several tyre reviews, the Continental PremiumContact 7 outperformed the Yokohama Advan Sport V107, presenting superior wet braking, better handling in aquaplaning scenarios, and a more comfortable drive. Conversely, in Autobild's 2023 tyre tests, the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 managed to secure the 4th position, excelling in dry braking, while the Continental PremiumContact 7 settled at the 5th spot.
In conclusion, if you're a driver seeking comfort and safety with excellent wet braking performance, the Continental PremiumContact 7 might be the better option. However, if your focus is on aggressive handling and sporting performance - especially in dry conditions, the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 might cater better to your needs, albeit at the cost of comfort and supremely optimized fuel economy.
