Significant comparison between premium tires and low-cost tires

Model: Toyota C Hr MK 2 - Years 2023-2026
Part: Tires

In this video, we see a significant comparison between high-end Continental tires and low-cost Chinese tires in terms of braking. The difference in meters at the same speed with the same car (a Toyota C-HR at 130 km/h) highlights a braking difference of 7.5 meters, which is equivalent to (as the YouTuber says) the "size of two Pandas". Indeed, this difference is not a detail; it is the difference between avoiding an accident and a head-on collision. The test was conducted on a plug-in hybrid SUV weighing 1700 kg. On heavier vehicles, the quality of tires is even more critical because the forces at play (inertia, load) are greater. Therefore, the choice of tires is not a matter of peak performance, but of daily safety: the higher initial investment is an investment in protection for ourselves, our passengers, and other road users.
