The Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 and the Michelin CrossClimate 2 tyres offer enhanced all-round performance with specific areas of excellence. Both models are manufactured mostly in Italy. However, their performance reflects distinct strengths and weaknesses.
The Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 stands out notably for its wet braking performance, a crucial safety feature. TyreReviews' data show that this model provides good performance in both dry and wet conditions, and excellent aquaplaning resistance. It also displays lessened wear, meaning good value over time. However, it has an average rolling resistance and below-average snow performance compared to other all-season tyres reviewed.
On the other hand, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 excels in a variety of areas such as exterior noise, rolling resistance and performance on snow, encompassing braking, cornering and handling. This model has an edge in dry grip, high aquaplaning resistance, and offers the lowest noise and rolling resistance in the tests. However, it inherits longer braking on wet surfaces and high purchasing costs leading to a higher cost per kilometre.
In the mutual test positions, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 was consistently placed above the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 in the most recent tests conducted by Autobild, even though the latter has excellent wet braking features. The Michelin model's enhanced snow performance gives it a distinct edge, ranking it first out of sixteen tyres tested.
In conclusion, both tyres, the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 from Bridgestone and the Michelin CrossClimate 2 from Michelin, provide solid overall performances. However, their best performance characteristics vary. The Bridgestone model may be better for those prioritising wet conditions, whereas the Michelin model might be preferred by those who need superior performance on snow. It is noted that the Michelin model is indeed costlier, indicating a priority of quality over price.
