In this comparison, we present two notable summer tyre models. On the one side, we have the Yokohama Advan Sport V107 and on the other, the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127.
The Yokohama Advan Sport V107 distinguishes itself by offering the drivers an engaging and sporty drive, marked by quick steering and greater feedback at the limit during hot and aggressive dry handling. Even so, it is noticeable that it takes a toll on the tyre's durability as it shows signs of significant wear under these circumstances.
Though it performs commendably regarding dry handling, this Yokohama tyre suffers in wet conditions, struggling with stopping across all tests. It also requires considerable time to warm up, an aspect that could negatively impact its performance in cooler climates. Comfort-wise, these tyres may present issues, as they are significantly rougher over potholes. Another drawback is their high rolling resistance.
On the other hand, we have its competitor, the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127. This tyre, coming from the Hankook catalogue, stands out for its excellent value for money and commendable wet grip. It also scores low on energy usage, which is a definite plus for the environmentally conscious driver.
However, there are certain drawbacks to consider. One is the slow steering response it offers. It's worth noting that it feels more like a comfort bias tyre than an outright sports tyre which might not suit every driver, particularly those who prefer a sportier drive. Wet performance is another issue as this tyre exhibits one of the lowest aquaplaning resistances on test.
Summing up all the factors and the overall ratings from our tests, there is a notable difference in results. With our rating of 74%, the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 clearly takes the lead over the Yokohama Advan Sport V107, which receives a more modest rating of 42%.
Although both of these summer tyre models have their individual strengths and weaknesses, based on various test results, the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 seems to generally perform better and offer a more balanced solution for a broader range of motorists.
