Performance Analysis

Cooper Discoverer All Season - Official Image

Across nine all-season tests, the Cooper Discoverer All Season delivers consistently weak wet and snow grip with multiple bottom-tier results, while showing isolated strengths in aquaplaning resistance, comfort/noise, and price. Average overall position around mid-to-lower pack (10th) reflects recurring deficits in dynamic grip (especially wet braking/handling) and efficiency, capped by notably poor rolling resistance in several tests. The tyre can feel composed in deep water and is quiet/comfortable, but braking and handling performance, particularly in the wet and on snow, limit its competitiveness.
