2024 Auto Bild Winter Tyre Test P12 of 20
The Apollo Alnac 4G Winter provides balanced performance across various weather conditions. It offers short braking distances and operates quietly, enhancing driving comfort. However, its moderate lateral guidance on snow suggests that while it's competent in winter conditions, it may not be the top performer in severe winter weather. It represents a good value option for those in areas with milder winters.
