Ok. 2023 Auto Zeitung All Season Tyre Test.
Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF2
Wet Braking 1st
Wet Circle 1st
Subj. Comfort 1st
Noise 1st
Rolling Resistance 1st
Placed 5th, with comment "Unbeatable on wet roads, but weak in snow. High rolling resistance lands it in fifth place." High rolling resistance? Please, read again Rolling Resistance test. 1st!
And, all-season tyres are not winter tyres. People who live in snowy areas will certainly not buy all-season tyres. Therefore, the fact that they are not very good in the snow should not push them to the fifth place.
It is the only tyre to win in five categories.
In my opinion, they should be the first.
There was an issue with the rolling resistance table, that's been updated and it was last in that test.
But i agree with you, the German testers care too much about the snow performance in their scoring system.
Also worth noting that the rolling resistance was affected as it was the seal inside version of the tyre
