The 2022 Auto Bild SUV all season tyre test has tested eleven popular all season tyres in 225/50 R18 tyre size and included a summer and winter tyre as comparison references! 225/50 R18 is a small sidewalled tyre for an SUV, this is aimed at the more compact crossover SUV all season tyre market, with Auto Bild using a BMW X2 for the testing.

Test setup & methodology

The test setting, the conditions recorded and how the results contribute to the score.

Recorded test conditions

Dry Braking: 100 → 0 km/h
Wet Braking: 100 → 0 km/h
Snow Braking: 50 → 0 km/h

There will be no surprise at the winners of the test, with the products from Michelin, Hankook, Continental and Goodyear all performing well across the important dry, wet and snow tests.

The included reference summer and winter tyres made for some interesting data, especially when the winter tyre didn't perform best in all the snow tests, and some of the all season tyres ahead of the summer tyre in the wet! Read on for all the stats.

Dry

Naturally the summer tyre led the way in dry braking, with the Michelin CrossClimate SUV and Maxxis Premitra All Season AP3 close behind.

Dry Braking

10Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen 3 SUV	39.5 m	+3.90 m	41 km/h
11Goodride All Season Elite Z 401	40.9 m	+5.30 m	47 km/h
RefReference Winter	42.2 m	+6.60 m	51 km/h

The difference between best and worst was 26.7% (8.9 m ≈ 2 Car Lengths). From 130 km/h, the Goodride All Season Elite Z 401 would still be travelling at 47 km/h when the Michelin CrossClimate SUV had stopped.

Residual speed is calculated from the measured braking distances, assuming constant deceleration; it is not a separate measurement.

Bridgestone managed to jump up the order for dry handling proving to be the fastest tyre, and almost matching the summer tyre around the lap! Goodyear was best of the rest, which is always a surprise given its lack of ability in dry braking, but it seems to be a trend consistent across many tests.

The winter tyre managed to be better than the worst all season tyre, which was the Toyo Celsius AS2.

The difference between best and worst was 3.1% (3.4 Km/H).

Wet

The summer tyre was also the best in wet braking with the Michelin again performing well. The Goodride All Season Elite Z401 had dangerously long wet braking, stopping the BMW nearly 20 meters after the summer tyre!

Residual speed is calculated from the measured braking distances, assuming constant deceleration; it is not a separate measurement.

The top four tyres were very close around the wet handling lap, with the winter tyre making a surprise midpack appearance!

Snow

The winter tyre had an impressive advantage during snow braking.

The difference between best and worst was 157.6% (36.4 m ≈ 8.1 Car Lengths). From 130 km/h, the Maxxis Premitra All Season AP3 would still be travelling at 64 km/h when the Hankook Kinergy 4S 2 X had stopped.

Residual speed is calculated from the measured braking distances, assuming constant deceleration; it is not a separate measurement.

But the winter tyre couldn't match the best, or even second best all season tyre during snow traction testing.

The difference between best and worst was 11.7% (6.7 Km/H).

Environment

The Maxxis was significantly noisier than the other tyres on test at 80 km/h. The winter tyre did prove to be even noisier than all the all season tyres on test, however this isn't a normal trend, winter tyres can be just as quiet as all season tyres, especially internally.

The Bridgestone WeatherControl A005 EVO had the lowest rolling resistance, with Maxxis and Falken costing you the most at the pumps.

The difference between best and worst was 16.9% (1.23 kg / t). Over 19,000 km a year at £1.45/L, the Falken EUROALL SEASON AS210 uses about 52 L (£75) more fuel than the Bridgestone Weather Control A005 EVO.

Set my vehicle consumption

Estimates based on typical driving conditions. Rolling resistance accounts for approximately 20% of IC vehicle fuel consumption and 25% of EV energy consumption. Actual savings vary based on driving style, vehicle weight, road conditions, and tyre age. For comparative purposes only. Lifetime savings based on a 40,000km / 25,000 mile tread life.

The trend of getting what you pay for in terms of price vs overall results tracks almost perfectly, apart from the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 X coming in at a very reasonable price for its performance level, and the Bridgestone comparatively overpriced.
