In this comparison, we will look at two all-season tyres - the Continental AllSeasonContact and the Pirelli Cinturato All Season Plus. Both tyres are made by reputable manufacturers, Continental and Pirelli, and are designed for year-round use in various weather conditions. We will summarize the data from various tests and provide a verdict on the strengths and weaknesses of each tyre, as well as their positions in mutual tests.
According to the Autobild test, the Continental AllSeasonContact ranked 5th out of 27 tyres. Its strengths include snow cornering, snow traction, and aquaplaning - longitudinal. Besides, this tyre boasts excellent rolling resistance, which contributes to fuel efficiency. Manufactured in Europe (SK, CZ, FR), the AllSeasonContact sports an impressive 90% rating on our website.
On the other hand, the Pirelli Cinturato All Season Plus ranked 10th in the same test. Its standout features are dry braking, exterior noise level, and rolling resistance, making the tyre a good choice for those who prioritize performance in dry conditions, quiet driving, and fuel efficiency. However, with a 62% rating on our website, this tyre could not quite match the impressive performance of its competitor.
In the Autobild 2020 test, the Continental AllSeasonContact received praise for its all-around capabilities, excellent winter performance, and great value for money. The test highlighted the tyre's precise steering response, high mileage, and fuel-saving rolling resistance. The only downside mentioned is that it has a slightly prolonged braking distance, which might pose some safety concerns.
Conversely, the Pirelli Cinturato All Season Plus displayed good safety reserves in aquaplaning, short dry braking distances, high mileage, and fuel-saving rolling resistance in the same Autobild 2020 test. However, its weaknesses include extended braking distances and understeering behavior in snow and ice, which could be a critical factor for drivers who frequently encounter winter conditions.
In summary, both the Continental AllSeasonContact and the Pirelli Cinturato All Season Plus have their strengths and weaknesses. While the Continental tyre performs better overall and is more suitable for winter conditions, the Pirelli tyre is still a solid choice, particularly for drivers who prioritize dry braking, quiet driving, and fuel efficiency. Keep in mind, though, that neither tyre has a newer model that replaced them, so their performance should be relevant and up-to-date.
