The 2022 Auto Bild SUV all season tire test has tested eleven popular all season tires in 225/50 R18 tire size and included a summer and winter tire as comparison references! 225/50 R18 is a small sidewalled tire for an SUV, this is aimed at the more compact crossover SUV all season tire market, with Auto Bild using a BMW X2 for the testing.

There will be no surprise at the winners of the test, with the products from Michelin, Hankook, Continental and Goodyear all performing well across the important dry, wet and snow tests.
The included reference summer and winter tires made for some interesting data, especially when the winter tire didn't perform best in all the snow tests, and some of the all season tires ahead of the summer tire in the wet! Read on for all the stats.
Dry
Naturally the summer tire led the way in dry braking, with the Michelin CrossClimate SUV and Maxxis Premitra All Season AP3 close behind.

RefReference Winter |
138 ft | +21 ft | 32 mph |
The difference between best and worst was 26.7% (29 ft ≈ 2 Car Lengths). From 80 mph, the Goodride All Season Elite Z 401 would still be travelling at 29 mph when the Michelin CrossClimate SUV had stopped.
Residual speed is calculated from the measured braking distances, assuming constant deceleration; it is not a separate measurement.
Bridgestone managed to jump up the order for dry handling proving to be the fastest tire, and almost matching the summer tire around the lap! Goodyear was best of the rest, which is always a surprise given its lack of ability in dry braking, but it seems to be a trend consistent across many tests.
The winter tire managed to be better than the worst all season tire, which was the Toyo Celsius AS2.

Wet
The summer tire was also the best in wet braking with the Michelin again performing well. The Goodride All Season Elite Z401 had dangerously long wet braking, stopping the BMW nearly 66 feet after the summer tire!

The top four tires were very close around the wet handling lap, with the winter tire making a surprise midpack appearance!

Environment
The Maxxis was significantly noisier than the other tires on test at 50 mph. The winter tire did prove to be even noisier than all the all season tires on test, however this isn't a normal trend, winter tires can be just as quiet as all season tires, especially internally.

The difference between best and worst was 16.9% (1.23 kg / t). Over 12,000 miles a year at $3.60/gal, the Falken EUROALL SEASON AS210 uses about 14 gal ($50) more fuel than the Bridgestone Weather Control A005 EVO.
Adjust the assumptions
Calculated estimates, not additional measurements. Use the controls to explore the assumptions.
The trend of getting what you pay for in terms of price vs overall results tracks almost perfectly, apart from the Hankook Kinergy 4S2 X coming in at a very reasonable price for its performance level, and the Bridgestone comparatively overpriced.
