The Quatrac 3 is the ideal alternative for motorists in a temperate climate who want to drive all year round on the same type of tyre. The striking asymmetrical, non-directional tread with the separate summer and winter sides offers optimal safety and comfort in all weather conditions. The tyre has excellent handling characteristics that are ideal for driving in summer conditions on dry and wet roads. At the same time, the tyre offers perfect grip and high dispersal capacity in winter conditions. Three longitudinal grooves are incorporated into the tread, providing efficient water dispersion.

 EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes

EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes

The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.

Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.

The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.

With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.

Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.

Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.

17.06.2015 from Andrew
An outstanding tyre which provides noticeably better driving than other brands I have used.
06.06.2015 from D. Wiedemann
I have used these tyres for the last 4 years for regularity rallies and they perform very well in all weather. The only drawback is less road holding in wet conditions
24.05.2015 from Geoff Rees
These tyre have good depth of tread and very open. Whilst not being an aggressive driver they appear to grip well especially in wet. The noise level is slightly up on previous Sonar Quit run tyres, although this model car is well known as a noisy one. As an aside, Honest John (Daily Telegraph Motoring) reckons these All Weather tyres are neither a good or bad idea.
22.05.2015 from R Wright
Good solid feeling and stopping performance in the wet. Noise level quite high on Motorway in the dry.
