The Bridgestone Turanza 6 offers commendable wet braking and handling, ensuring safety and control in wet conditions. Its hydroplaning resistance scores are moderate. In dry conditions, the tire provides adequate braking and handling, aligning with expectations for a tire in its category. However, the noise level is on the lower side, suggesting a quieter ride might be achievable. The rolling resistance is relatively efficient, indicating a positive impact on fuel economy.

The Bridgestone Turanza 6 ranks sixth, showing a mixed performance across various tests. It excels in straight hydroplaning resistance, leading this category, and demonstrates the best fuel consumption rate among its peers. However, its performance in dry braking and wet conditions, including wet braking and handling on concrete, shows room for improvement. The tire maintains a decent noise level, enhancing ride comfort. In terms of wear and value, the Turanza 6 shows moderate longevity and cost-effectiveness. Its price point and abrasion rate indicate average performance compared to the best in the category.

The Bridgestone Turanza 6 exhibited competent performance, particularly showcasing its strengths in dry handling and rolling resistance, where it led the field. While its wet handling and braking capabilities were commendable, they did not reach the top tier, reflected in its mid-rank positioning. The tire demonstrated good hydroplaning resistance but faced challenges in maximizing grip and traction under wet conditions.

The Bridgestone Turanza 6 focuses on fuel efficiency and comfort, excelling in rolling resistance, which suggests it's an economical option in terms of fuel consumption. It also ranks well in noise reduction, contributing to a quieter ride. However, its performance in dry braking and handling is at the lower end among its competitors, and its wet grip performance is considered average, indicating areas where improvements could enhance its appeal.

The Bridgestone Turanza 6 demonstrated balanced driving characteristics, offering safe handling and commendable braking distances on both wet and dry surfaces. While it showed very good mileage, its performance in hydroplaning resistance and noise levels highlighted areas for potential improvement.

The Bridgestone Turanza 6 Enliten, a summer tire, faced limitations in its testing due to weather constraints, particularly the absence of snow handling tests. However, the results from other tests are telling. On snow, the Turanza significantly underperforms, with much longer stopping distances and only a fraction of the grip in acceleration compared to the Michelin all-season tire, highlighting the inadvisability of using summer tires in winter conditions.

On dry asphalt, the Turanza exhibits a marginal advantage over all-season tires, though this could be partially attributed to the test vehicle's limited power, possibly underutilizing the summer tire's potential. In wet conditions, while all-season tires generally outperform in braking and handling, the Turanza shows strengths in transverse hydroplaning resistance and lateral stability. This mixed performance underscores the specialized nature of summer tires, optimized for warm, dry conditions, but less suitable for colder, snowy environments.

New tire with well balanced performance, excellent wet and dry performance, good off-road performance, good aquaplaning performance, lowest rolling resistance.

Positive: Performance balance. Handling performance in any conditions. Environment.
A tire has a well-balanced performance and low rolling resistance, which comes at a relatively high price.
