Performance Analysis

The Kleber Quadraxer 2 shows a clear all-season bias toward snow capability and value, while struggling in core dry and wet braking disciplines. Across nine tests it averages mid-pack (11.1), with peak results in earlier Auto Bild tests (3rd in 2016, 4th in 2017) driven by strong snow grip, low noise, good rolling resistance, and excellent wear/value metrics. However, repeated bottom-tier finishes in dry and wet braking and mediocre aquaplaning in some years limit overall standings.
Overall, it's a competent, budget-friendly all-season option for mixed climates with regular winter conditions, but not ideal if dry or wet braking performance is a priority.
