When comparing the Yokohama BluEarth-4S AW21 tyre produced by Yokohama and the Vredestein Quatrac tyre made by Vredestein, it's clear that both tyres have unique strengths and weaknesses.
The Yokohama BluEarth-4S AW21 rates well, particularly mentioned for its good braking performance on snow. However, this tyre did fall behind in some tests, particularly with weaknesses on dry and wet roads, as well as predicted mileage and weight. According to the Autobild 2019 test, it scored low due to its weak performance on dry roads and high weight. Also, from the ADAC test, it ranked 14th out of 16 tyres tested, indicating room for improvement.
On the other hand, the Vredestein Quatrac has established itself as a high-rating tyre, with an overall rating of 88%. It's considered efficient with a long service life and low wear. This tyre has shown some weaknesses on dry and wet roads, but these are seen as minor compared to its strengths. Notably, its strong performance on wet roads, including braking, cornering, and handling, led to its high ranking of 2nd place in the 32 tyres tested in the Autobild test. In addition, in the ADAC test, it scored a fair 6th place. Further, as per the Autobild 2023 test, it is praised for its dynamic driving behaviour in any weather condition, good winter qualities, and excellent aquaplaning reserves, despite its average mileage.
Verdict: The Vredestein Quatrac stands out in these comparison tests due to its overall higher ratings and performance on wet roads. However, the Yokohama BluEarth-4S AW21 tyre still offers value with its good snow braking capability. Finally, it's crucial for buyers to consider their specific driving conditions and requirements before choosing a tyre.
