Performance Analysis

Across four 2026 summer tests, the Kleber Dynaxer HP5 shows a clear split personality: it is consistently strong on efficiency/comfort metrics, but struggles to convert that into competitive safety performance in wet conditions, especially in larger 245/45 R19 fitment. Overall results range from mid-pack (7/13, 7/9, 19/50 braking) to near-bottom (19/20), indicating it is not a consistent all-rounder versus leading premium tyres.

The most repeatable positives are very low rolling resistance and good comfort/noise, while the most repeatable negatives are long wet braking distances and weaker wet handling/aquaplaning security. Dry performance tends to be average rather than disastrous (typically ~+6% braking deficit and ~+2-3% handling deficit to best), but not enough to offset wet deficits when scores are aggregated.

Performance Strengths

Efficiency (Rolling Resistance / Energy Cost) Strong Details
• 1st/20 rolling resistance (6.67 kg/t) in 2026 Autobild Summer Tyre Test (245/45 R19)
• 1st/20 abrasion (1122 g) in 2026 Autobild Summer Tyre Test, aligning with an efficiency/low-loss pattern
• Mid-pack rolling resistance in 225/45 R17 tests: 5th/13 (+20.9%) in Tyre Reviews 2026 and 5th/9 (+21.8%) in Motor 2026 (shows this strength is most pronounced in the Autobild R19 dataset)
Comfort / NVH Moderate Details
• 1st/9 subjective comfort in 2026 Motor Summer Tyre Test (225/45 R17)
• 3rd/13 subjective comfort (+2.8% from best) in Tyre Reviews 2026 (225/45 R17)
• Top-10 noise results in Autobild: 7th/20 noise (+1.7% from best) and 5th/20 comfort (+8.8% from best) in 245/45 R19 test
Dry Performance (Braking/Handling baseline) Minor Details
• Dry braking consistently ~+6% from best: 6th/9 (+6.4%) in Motor 2026 and 6th/12 (+6.2%) in Tyre Reviews 2026; 15th/20 (+6.4%) in Autobild 2026
• Dry handling time/speed generally close to best: +2.3% (6th/9) in Motor 2026 and +2.7% (9th/13) in Tyre Reviews 2026; dry handling speed 19th/20 (+2.6%) in Autobild shows the limit-performance ranking can fall away in tougher fields

Performance Weaknesses

Wet Braking (Primary Safety Deficit) Strong Details
• 18th/20 wet braking (+18.8% from best) in 2026 Autobild Summer Tyre Test (245/45 R19)
• 20th/50 wet braking (+18.7% from best) in 2026 Summer Braking Super Tyre Test (245/45 R19)
• Even where not bottom-tier, it remains off the leaders: 5th/9 (+5.3%) in Motor 2026 and 5th/12 (+5.3%) in Tyre Reviews 2026
Wet Handling & Aquaplaning Security Strong Details
• Worst-in-test wet handling: 20th/20 (+5.0% from best) in 2026 Autobild (245/45 R19)
• Curved aquaplaning weak in R19: 18th/20 (+19.9%) and straight aquaplaning 19th/20 (+5.9%) in 2026 Autobild
• Mid-to-lower wet dynamics in R17: wet handling 6th/9 (+6.2%) in Motor 2026 and 9th/13 (+6.5%) in Tyre Reviews 2026; straight aquaplaning 7th/9 (+6.9%) Motor and 8th/12 (+6.9%) Tyre Reviews
Overall Competitiveness / Consistency vs. Field Moderate Details
• Very low overall placing in a major group test: 19th/20 in 2026 Autobild Summer Tyre Test
• Lower-tier overall in smaller comparison: 7th/9 in 2026 Motor Summer Tyre Test
• Subjective limit-behaviour concerns noted alongside low rankings: subjective dry handling 18th/20 (+47%) and subjective wet handling 17th/20 (+31%) in Autobild 2026
