Magazine tests
Published braking distances (Auto Bild, auto motor und sport, Auto Zeitung, ADAC, Za Rulem and others). Rank = position in the same test on the same surface (1 = shortest). The tests use different sizes, cars and conditions, so only compare numbers within the same test.
| Test | Size | Conditions | Result | Rank | Best |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Auto Bild 2023 | 225/45 R18 | wet asphalt 80→0 km/h | 31.1 m | 35 / 50 | 24.8 m |
| Za Rulem (За рулём) 2020 | 195/65 R15 | dry asphalt 100→5 km/h | 42.6 m | 13 / 16 | 37.0 m |

The calculation on this page does not use these results: our check showed that a test in another size does not predict wet braking better than the EU label for your size. They are shown here as measured facts.
