2025 Teknikens Varld Summer Tyre Test

Compare each discipline in the tested size. See the measured result, position and gap to the best tyre, then read the verdict for the trade-offs behind the finishing order.

Tested size: 235/55 R19
Tyres tested: 8
Disciplines: 4

Read the measurements, not just the rank

Lower is better for braking distances and lap times; higher is better for subjective scores and aquaplaning speed. Bars start at zero. Read the gap alongside the position: adjacent tyres can be separated by very different margins.

Positions and gaps always refer to the full test field within each group. Selecting tyres does not recalculate rankings or change the best-in-test benchmark.

1Michelin e.Primacy	24.64 m	Best	0 km/h
2Nexen N Fera Sport SUV	24.73 m	+0.09 m	8 km/h
3Pirelli Scorpion	24.75 m	+0.11 m	9 km/h

7Michelin CrossClimate 2	26.88 m	+2.24 m	38 km/h
8Goodride Z 107 ZuperEco	26.97 m	+2.33 m	38 km/h

The difference between best and worst was 9.5% (2.33 m ≈ 0.5 Car Lengths). From 130 km/h, the Goodride Z 107 ZuperEco would still be travelling at 38 km/h when the Michelin e.Primacy had stopped.

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