In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Finland (Nokian) against a tyre from a manufacturer from South Korea (Hankook). Generally, Hankook summer tyres are slightly better rated (76%) than Nokian (61%). In this particular case, the Hankook Ventus Evo has a better rating of 90% compared to 62% of the Nokian Powerproof 1. Important for this comparison is also the Autobild 2025 225/40 R18 test, where both the Powerproof 1 and the Ventus Evo were tested. When it comes to comparison, eu labels can be also interesting - 100% of Nokian Powerproof 1 dimensions has A wet grip rating. Most (94%) of the Hankook Ventus Evo also have A wet ratings. We also know where Powerproof 1 is made - Finland.
