Performance Analysis

Drawn from 5 tests. Updated October 28, 2026.

The Minerva All Season Master has recurring wet-road and aquaplaning weaknesses across its five tests, with low overall finishes in the two full 2024 comparisons. Auto Bild Allrad placed it last of ten in the SUV test and last of twelve in the minivan/SUV test. Wet stops were 63.7m and 54.1m respectively, 39.1% and 23.2% longer than best. Straight aquaplaning was last in both measured fields, while wet handling was also near or at the back. The SUV test rated it Not recommended.

There are narrower positives and unusual exceptions. Snow braking drew praise in both full tests, although the measured results varied from fifth of twelve in the SUV comparison to eleventh of fourteen in the minivan test. Noise was lowest at 71dB in the SUV test. Dry braking was unusually better in the minivan comparison, sixth of fourteen at 44.8m, beside last place in the SUV test and weak braking-screen results. Wet braking in the 2023 Auto Bild shootout was also an unusual stronger result, 14th of 35, against the broader wet weakness. The testers criticised understeer and spongy steering, and rolling resistance was high. The snow-braking and noise positives therefore do not establish a balanced all-season record.
