    Birmingham, UK − Which? magazine, has named the Dunlop WinterResponse 2 as a ‘Best Buy’ in its latest winter tire test.

    Renowned for its impartial reviews and expert advice, Which? magazine has released the results of its annual winter tire test and Dunlop saw off leading competitors to be named a ‘Which Best Buy’.

    Testing a 185/60 R15T tire to cover the compact car market, the experienced test team reviewed the Dunlop WinterResponse 2 in wet, dry, ice and snow conditions to gain an understanding of performance in all winter conditions. The tire was described as “a strong all-rounder with particularly good fuel economy” to earn its ‘accolade.

    “The entire team at Dunlop is extremely pleased with this recognition from Which?,” said Andy Marfleet, Dunlop’s brand manager, “which is testament to the ongoing development of industry leading technology including the new innovative tread block geometry on the Winter Response 2. This improvement succeeds in improving traction under acceleration and braking on snow covered roads – a vital part of winter driving.

    “Our aim at Dunlop is to inspire confidence for drivers regardless of the weather and this recognition from a magazine that is well known for its impartial test is a great endorsement.”
