Semperit AllSeason Grip vs Vredestein Quatrac
Yet the story flips in true winter metrics. The Semperit counters with notably shorter stopping on snow and ice plus stronger snow traction, offering drivers in colder, snow-prone regions a tangible edge. The result is a classic split: Vredestein excels in year-round safety and longevity, while Semperit provides reassuring bite when temperatures plunge.
Test Results
Independent comparison tire tests are the best source of data to get tire information from, and the good news is there have been three tests which compare both tires directly!
| Tire | Test Wins | Performance |
|---|---|---|
| Vredestein Quatrac | three |
While it might look like the Vredestein Quatrac is better than the Semperit AllSeason Grip purely based on the higher number of test wins, tires are very complicated objects which means where one tire is better than the other can be more important in real world use.
Let's look at how the two tires compare across multiple tire test categories.
Key Strengths
- Class-leading winter bite: shorter snow and ice braking, stronger snow traction
- Solid wet braking/handling performance for its class
- Lightweight casing aiding efficiency
- Competitive fuel consumption for a non-premium option
- Consistently shorter dry and wet braking distances
- Stronger aquaplaning resistance (straight and curved)
- Excellent longevity and low abrasion (lower ownership cost)
- Better fuel efficiency with slightly lower noise
Dry Braking
Looking at data from three tire tests, the Vredestein Quatrac was better during three dry braking tests. On average the Vredestein Quatrac stopped the vehicle in 8.97% less distance than the Semperit AllSeason Grip.

Conclusion
Semperit's AllSeason Grip answers with convincing winter grip: best-in-set snow braking and meaningful advantages in snow traction and ice braking. If your winters bring frequent snow and ice and you prioritize cold-weather stopping over ultimate dry/wet precision, the Semperit's strengths are compelling. For most mixed-climate drivers seeking balanced safety, stability, and durability across the year, the Vredestein remains the safer, more economical bet over a tire's life.

Footnote
This page has been developed using tire industry testing best practices. This means we are only comparing tests which have had both tires in the same test.
Why is this important? Tire testing is heavily affected by things like surface grip levels and surface temperature, which means you can only compare values from the same day. During a tire test external condition changes are calculated into the overall results, but it is not possible to calculate this between tire tests performed on different days or at different locations.
As a result you will see other tests on Tire Reviews which feature both the %s and %s, but as they weren't conducted on the same day, the results are not comparable.
Lots of other websites do this sort of tire comparison, Tire Reviews doesn't.
