In this comparison, we will take a closer look at two all-season tyres: Michelin CrossClimate 2 and Nokian Seasonproof. Both tyres are designed to provide excellent performance in various road conditions, including wet, dry, and snowy surfaces. The Michelin CrossClimate 2 is a successor to the popular Michelin CrossClimate, while the Nokian Seasonproof is a newer model from the Finnish tyre manufacturer, Nokian.
Michelin CrossClimate 2 is a highly-rated tyre, with an 89% rating on our website. Made in Italy, this all-round tyre has proven itself in various tests, such as Autoklub ČR, Autobild, and ARBÖ. In these tests, the CrossClimate 2 ranked 1st place consistently, showing its strong performance in aquaplaning, dry braking, snow acceleration, snow traction, and wet handling.
Nokian Seasonproof, on the other hand, is made in Russia and has not yet received a rating on our website. However, it has performed well in tests, ranking around the middle of the pack. For example, it ranked 5th place in Autoklub ČR, 9th place in Autobild, and 3rd place in ARBÖ. The tyre's strengths include exterior noise, snow braking, and snow handling.
When comparing the two tyres, it is apparent that the Michelin CrossClimate 2 outperforms the Nokian Seasonproof in most tests. The CrossClimate 2's strengths are its excellent performance in snow, short dry braking distances, precise steering response, and good rolling comfort. On the other hand, it has some weaknesses, including mediocre lateral grip on wet surfaces, a lower expected mileage, and only satisfactory overall economy.
The Nokian Seasonproof has its own set of strengths, including impressive performance on ice and snow, good aquaplaning qualities, stable dry handling, and a quiet exterior noise. However, it also has some weaknesses, such as longer braking distances on wet and dry surfaces.
In conclusion, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 seems to be the stronger performer overall, consistently ranking higher in tests and displaying better performance in various conditions. However, at this time, users should take note that our website has not yet assigned a rating for the Nokian Seasonproof. Therefore, while the CrossClimate 2 appears to be the better choice, the final decision should be based on a purchaser's individual needs and preferences.
