Data updated
Which should you buy?
Pick the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 for the most complete year-round solution-especially if you regularly drive in rain and cold conditions, see meaningful snow, value quietness/comfort, or want lower rolling resistance for efficiency/EV use. Pick the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 if your top priority is maximum dry braking and strong aquaplaning security in a predominantly wet/dry (mild-winter) climate, and you also care about strong value metrics when wear and purchase price are factored in.
Where the Turanza All Season 6 is stronger
- Class-leading dry braking across the shared dataset (27 category wins vs 1), including repeated Auto Bild qualifier victories (e.g., 2026: 36.5 m vs 39.7 m; 2025: 38.1 m vs 41.5 m)
- Very strong aquaplaning resistance, frequently beating the Continental in both straight and curved tests (straight aqua wins 20 vs 4; curved wins 16 vs 4), often with clear % margins
- Often competitive wet braking and stable, predictable road manners (frequently near the top even when not the fastest in wet handling laps)
Where the AllSeasonContact 2 is stronger
- More consistent overall performance and higher overall test success rate (18 test wins vs 9), with few true weak areas in many group tests
- Wet handling advantage is a recurring theme (18 category wins vs 4), often pairing strong subjective confidence with quick wet lap times (e.g., AMS 2026 wet handling winner; Auto Bild Allrad SUV 2026 strong wet suite)
- Stronger winter-leaning capability in snow traction/handling and often braking (snow traction wins 17 vs 7; snow handling 17 vs 4; snow braking 16 vs 7), making it the safer bet for regular snow

Braking distances and lap times are better when lower; speeds, wear and grip figures when higher. A test's figures are its own: sizes, cars, surfaces and temperatures differ from one to the next, which is why the averages here are only ever of tests the two tyres shared. "Scored" rows are subjective driver ratings: each test uses its own scale, so only the wins are counted.

Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6
- 79%from 44 reviews
- 76%would buy again
- 393,509 milesdriven by reviewers
Owners broadly rate the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 as a very safe, summer-leaning all-season tyre, with a clear consensus around strong wet grip (mentioned by over half of reviewers) and similarly impressive dry grip. Snow traction is generally described as capable for occasional winter use, and around a third of owners also report encouraging tread life. The main drawbacks are feel and efficiency: around one in four owners complain of numb steering feedback and a similar share report higher rolling resistance/fuel consumption, while road noise is divisive with near-even praise and criticism.
- Very strong wet grip and confidence in heavy rain
- High dry grip that feels close to a summer tyre
- Capable snow traction for light to moderate winter conditions
- Good tread life for year-round use
- Numb steering feel and limited feedback near the limit
- Higher rolling resistance and a noticeable fuel economy hit for some
- Road noise can be intrusive on certain surfaces, despite others finding it quiet
Summarised by AI from 43 vetted reviews; the reviews themselves are on the tyre page.
All 44 Turanza All Season 6 reviewsNow nearly 2 years and 20k miles in. These tyres are still as good as they were new and tread has only dropped to 5-6mm all round, suggesting >40,000 miles a set which is more than the OE Pirelli P7 summer tyres managed. Have experienced winter slush and light snow without any grip issues, when the car felt stable and safe, but as I live on the south coast with regular trips to family in Yorkshire, they don’t need to be a dedicated winter tyre. Economy unchanged around 45mpg overall, 50mpg on a motorway run. For my use, these have been very impressive and I would be happy to replace them with another set, although there may be even better choices in 3 years when these should be just about done.
Continental AllSeasonContact 2
- 83%from 70 reviews
- 82%would buy again
- 667,287 milesdriven by reviewers
Owners rate the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 highly overall (81% average), most often praising its smooth, comfortable ride and low noise levels, alongside very strong wet grip that inspires confidence. Dry grip is also widely viewed as secure and predictable, and around one in five owners report it coping well in snow for an all-season. The main recurring drawback is steering feel: around one in four owners describe softer, less immediate response, and tread life feedback is mixed, with a noticeable minority reporting faster-than-expected wear.
- Noticeably smoother, more comfortable ride
- Low cabin noise and a refined drive
- Excellent wet grip and confidence in the rain
- Strong dry grip and traction under acceleration
- Steering feels soft or delayed, with a dead spot for some drivers
- Tread life reports are inconsistent, with some seeing faster wear
- Handling can feel less sharp than expected in the dry
Summarised by AI from 61 vetted reviews; the reviews themselves are on the tyre page.
All 70 AllSeasonContact 2 reviewsI chose XL-rated tires because I tend to drive a bit faster, and they provide better stability with less sidewall flex. I use them only during the winter, and they've been excellent. They are no noisier than winter tires, and in my experience they perform better in about 90% of winter conditions. The only exception is deep snow, where proper winter tires still have an advantage, although these tires handle it quite well too.

Reading the results
Written from the test results and owner reviews above. It is analysis, not a measurement: where it and the tables disagree, the tables are right.
This is a premium-touring all-season face-off between two of the most-tested mainstream options: Bridgestone's Turanza All Season 6 and Continental's AllSeasonContact 2. Across 29 shared professional tests (from small hatch sizes up to SUV/EV fitments), they show a clear split in philosophy: Bridgestone repeatedly prioritises “summer-like” road security (especially braking and aquaplaning), while Continental focuses on broad, year-round balance with a strong lean toward wet handling, winter traction, refinement and efficiency.
The headline pattern is that the Bridgestone is the out-and-out braking and water-clearance specialist-regularly posting class-leading dry stops (e.g., Auto Bild's 30-tyre qualifiers: 1st/30 in 2026 with 36.5 m vs 39.7 m; and 1st/30 again in 2025). The Continental, meanwhile, more often wins full group tests and points tables thanks to fewer weak areas and consistently strong wet handling, snow performance and rolling resistance (e.g., 1st/9 in the 2026 AMS test; 1st/6 in Sport Auto 2024; 1st/10 in Auto Bild SUV 2024).
Conclusion
Taken as a whole, Continental AllSeasonContact 2 is the more consistently high-scoring all-rounder across the test landscape: it wins twice as many shared tests overall (18 vs 9) and dominates categories that matter daily in mixed climates-wet handling (18 category wins vs 4), snow traction/handling (17 wins each vs 7 and 4), noise and rolling resistance (19 wins each vs 2 and 4). That blend explains why it so often lands on the podium or takes the overall win (e.g., AMS 2026: 1st/9; Auto Bild Allrad SUV 2026: 2nd/12; Auto Bild SUV 2024: 1st/10; ADAC 2025: 2nd/16 with strong safety/environment balance). For drivers who see real winter mornings, frequent rain, or want an EV-friendly tyre with lower energy loss, the Continental's breadth is its superpower.
Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 earns its place by being the safer-feeling “road tyre” in key emergency scenarios and high-water conditions. It is overwhelmingly the dry-braking winner across the shared dataset (27 wins vs 1), and it very often leads aquaplaning reserves (straight aquaplaning wins 20 vs 4; curved 16 vs 4). The magnitude can be meaningful: in the 2026 Auto Bild qualifier it stopped ~3.2 m shorter in the dry (36.5 m vs 39.7 m), and in several tests it carries a clear advantage in standing-water thresholds. Where it tends to concede is in wet cornering pace/handling consistency and, depending on test/fitment, outright snow grip-so it can feel like a “mild-climate” all-season that still has winter capability, rather than a winter-leaning all-season.
Practical takeaway: choose the Continental if you want the tyre that is rarely the wrong answer across seasons (especially wet/winter + comfort/efficiency). Choose the Bridgestone if your priority is maximum braking reassurance and strong aquaplaning safety for predominantly wet/dry roads-and you're willing to accept that some tests show it giving away time in handling disciplines and, in harsher-winter scenarios, traction/handling on snow.

Where this data comes from
Finishing positions and measurements are transcribed from each published test. A test only counts here when both tyres ran in it, so every figure was recorded on the same car, size and day as the one it is compared to.
About the TR Score
The Tyre Reviews Score rates each tyre out of 10 from every independent test result and vetted owner review we hold, so two tyres can be compared even before a test has run them together.
Who does the testing
Every test published as a Tyre Reviews test is run by Jonathan Benson, who has been testing tyres independently since 2007.
