Cooper Summer

The Cooper Summer is a new product following Cooper's acquisition by Goodyear. On wet roads, it delivers secure, precise, and reliable handling with very good aquaplaning protection, and test drivers found it easy to control. The problem area is dry braking, where it records the longest stopping distance in the test at 37.5 meters - a borderline result. A slight rubbing sensation was noted at the handling limit, and a faint rolling noise is audible in corners. Rolling resistance is mid-pack, and it is among the cheaper options at 100 euros. Like Dunlop and Vredestein, retail-purchased samples were verified in follow-up tests and confirmed the original results.
