[Asia Economy Reporter Ki-min Lee] Kumho Tire announced on the 17th that it ranked first in the summer tire performance test conducted by the German automotive magazine 'Auto Bild'.

Auto Bild is a German automotive magazine that is the most influential in Europe and worldwide, conducting various performance tests as well as providing content on automobiles and related products.

Recently, Auto Bild conducted a first round of braking performance tests on dry and wet surfaces for 53 summer tire products from major brands sold in the European region. Only the top 20 tires that passed this test proceeded to the second comprehensive test to determine the final ranking.

As a result, Kumho Tire's European bestseller product, the Ecsta (ECSTA) HS51, received high praise for its excellent driving performance and stability regardless of road conditions, surpassing Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone, and others to claim the top spot.

Auto Bild awarded Kumho Tire's Ecsta HS51 the Exemplary grade, stating that "it offers outstanding grip on all road conditions, combined with precise handling and short braking distances, delivering the best driving performance along with maximum stability."

Meanwhile, Kumho Tire's sports lineup Ecsta PS71 also received the highest rating in the ultra-high-performance tire category in the Adac test.
