Performance Analysis

Vredestein Quatrac Pro Plus - Official Image

Across 12 tests, the Vredestein Quatrac Pro Plus delivers consistently strong wet handling performance with frequent top-three finishes, translating to competitive overall results (average position 5.8) and one Recommended award. It also scores well for cabin refinement, often near the top for noise. However, it shows persistent weaknesses in dry braking/handling and winter grip (especially snow and ice), and it regularly underperforms in aquaplaning resistance and rolling resistance.
Overall, the tyre suits drivers prioritizing wet-road confidence and comfort over ultimate dry stopping distances, winter performance, and efficiency. Test outcomes vary by size and vehicle type, but the cross-test pattern is clear: wet handling strength counterbalanced by dry, snow/ice, and aquaplaning deficits.
