The tire, said Bridgestone 22 Oct, was also placed among the best performers in evaluations by ADAC and sport auto.
Meanwhile, the Turanza All Season 6 recorded joint first place in Auto Bild’s SUV all-season test, with an overall score of 1.2 and an ‘exemplary’ rating.
Bridgestone said the tire also earned ‘top ratings’ in other all-season evaluations, including second place and an overall rating of ‘exemplary’ in AutoBild Allrad’s latest SUV all-season tire test.
The tire also finished second overall in all-season category for ‘manufacturer of the year’ 2025.
In summer performance testing, the Potenza Sport was placed first in EVO’s 2025 tire test, leading six performance categories.
