Performance Analysis
Drawn from 1 tests. Updated October 28, 2026.
The Accelera PHI R finished 49th of 50 overall in Auto Bild's 2020 Tyre Market Overview Braking Test, in 245/45 R18. Its dry stopping distance was 37.4 metres, 46th of 49 measured entries and 16.5% longer than the best. That was a lower-field result rather than a dry-road strength.
Wet braking was weaker still, at 40.5 metres, 48th of 49 measured entries and 41.1% behind the best. This single braking comparison establishes a substantial stopping-distance shortfall on both surfaces, especially in the wet. It does not assess handling, steering, aquaplaning, comfort, noise or wear, and there are no further tests here with which to judge consistency.
