The Semperit Speed-Life 3, ranked fourteenth, demonstrates a mixed performance across various tests. Its dry braking distance is the longest among its peers, indicating a significant area for improvement. In contrast, its wet braking performance is better but still not top-tier. The tire performs adequately in hydroplaning resistance, particularly in straight-line tests, where it ranks well. However, its lateral hydroplaning resistance and noise levels are areas where enhancements could be beneficial. On the positive side, the tire shows good wear resistance and offers excellent value, with a competitive price-to-performance ratio. Its fuel consumption is also commendable, showcasing efficiency.

This Semperit tire has a short dry braking distance but it is prone to understeer during an emergency maneuver (the feedback and behavior on the grip limit are also only average). At the same time, on wet pavement it has a short braking distance and good handling response and hydroplaning resistance.From the environmental point of view, this Semperit tire has a long tread life and fuel saving capabilities, but it is pretty noisy.

Excellent wet grip with easy to drive wet handling. Excellent hydroplaning resistance. Great riding comfort. Low rolling resistance. Dull dry handling with high levels of understeer, poor grip in dry handling and dry braking.

Good results on dry pavement. Relatively low wear. Relatively low fuel consumption. Poor results on wet pavement. Satisfactory.

Relatively low fuel consumption. Poor results on dry and wet pavement.

Positive: Wet weather specialist with sporty, dynamic handling and short wet braking distances, good aquaplaning safety, low noise, good price level.
Negative: moderate comfort.
Verdict: exemplary.

Top marks when wet. Weaknesses on dry roads. Top marks for wear.

Very balanced. Especially good in the wet. Good on dry roads.
