Auto Bild's 2025 All Season Camper Van Tyre Test evaluated 9 all-season tyres in size 245/45 R18, alongside reference summer and winter tyres. The test revealed significant performance differences across the all-season field, with gaps of up to 9.7 meters in wet braking and 12.4 km/h in aquaplaning resistance. While the best all-season tyres approached or exceeded the reference tyres in certain conditions, the results highlight the importance of choosing quality products within the all-season category.

    Jonathan I'm afraid this review badly needs a recheck!
    Since the reference tires' results are wrongly assigned, all tires' scores are shifted
    (even though the order seems to fit otherwise).

      Thanks, you're right, the data is all over the place.

      Will fix ASAP.

      I couldn't sleep on it - it's now fixed. Thanks again.

    The "Dry Handling" graphic may not be right. In the text we can read about the average speed but the graphic shows time (seconds), meaning the tyres should have been located the other way around in the graphic, right?

      Thank you so much for pointing that out, fat fingers in the backend. I've reassigned the data to average speed.

        I think you missed it again. Now the graphic is still in seconds and the Triangle doesn´t seem to be the worst as described in the upper test even if we consider the measure is speed or time.

    What on Earth was the summer tyre I wonder? I find its performance profile compared to the AS tyres quite bewildering. Perhaps a Double Coin type?

      Could it just be the temperature they tested on? Summer tyres never behave properly in the cold, specially in the wet.

        Autobild don't announce what summer tyre they use but it is usually premium. It could be that it was a van / commercial summer tyre.

          Another point (van tyres are awful). I can't see why tests don't tell us what the tyres are.

        a point
        I wish the test was explicit about temperature-

      turns out the data was a mess, sorry. The correct data should now be online (it might need a ctrl+f5 refresh)
