2025 Autozurnal Winter Tyre Test P5 of 7

The Kormoran SUV Snow, which shares an identical tread design with the Riken tyre, performed best in snowy conditions, where it ranked third overall. It demonstrated strong capabilities on snow with a second-place finish in braking and a shared second place in handling. However, its performance on clear roads was lacking; it ranked seventh in the dry category, with the slowest handling time and sixth-longest braking distance. In wet conditions, it consistently placed in the lower half of the group, which contributed to its final overall position being tied for fifth place.

Strong: Curved Aquaplaning, Snow Braking, Snow Handling Weak: Dry Braking, Dry Handling, Wet Braking Winner: Michelin Alpin 7
