Competitors
The Michelin e.Primacy is a summer tire that excels in environmental sustainability, with the best projected lifespan, minimal wear, and low fuel consumption. It is also lightweight and easy on the wallet. However, when it comes to driving safety, the tire is rated as adequate, with weaknesses in both wet and dry conditions, particularly in braking, aquaplaning, and handling. While it offers good grip at the limit, the steering feedback and dry performance are only satisfactory. The tire is also criticized for its poor ride comfort due to low damping. Overall, the Michelin e.Primacy is a mixed bag, offering excellent eco-friendly features but lagging behind in driving performance, especially in the rain.
