Today, we will be comparing two remarkable all-round tyres: the Nexen N Blue 4 Season and the Pirelli Cinturato All Season Plus. These tyres hail from top-notch manufacturers, Nexen and Pirelli, respectively.
Starting with the Nexen N Blue 4 Season, this tyre's features stand out. Our rating for it stands at 62%. Manufactured in China & Turkey, the tyre's most notable attributes according to Autobild tests include comfort, snow cornering, desirable exterior noise, and an impressive price/value ratio. Overall, the tyre placed 8th out of 27 in the Autobild test. As for the feedbacks on Autobild 2020, the tyre flaunts good aquaplaning properties, short dry braking distances, and a quiet rolling noise. Besides, it comes with high mileage and excellent value for money. In terms of weaknesses, it portrayed a marginal grip on wet roads and an increased rolling resistance. Notably, a newer model, Nexen N Blue 4 Season 2, has replaced this tyre.
Now let's move to the Pirelli Cinturato All Season Plus. Our rating for this tyre is slightly lower at 50%, but its performance is laudable. It occupies the 10th position in the Autobild test, which ranked it due to its strong dry braking, low exterior noise, and low rolling resistance. The tyre's best features, according to Autobild 2020, include good aquaplaning safety margins, short dry braking paths, high mileage, and fuel-saving rolling resistance. Despite these perks, the tyre has extended braking distances and understeering on ice and snow.
In mutual comparison, both tyres have their strengths and weaknesses.
