  • The Falken Eurowinter HS02 tire shows varied performance across different driving conditions. On dry roads, it excels with the best rating in the test, offering precise steering, good safety reserves, and the shortest braking distance. Wet performance is marginally good, with above-average results in braking and aquaplaning resistance, though it narrowly misses a good rating in handling due to slightly lower precision. The tire's weakest performance is on winter roads, where it achieves only satisfactory results in braking, traction, and handling, with early tendencies to under- and oversteer. Ice braking is average. Environmentally, the tire narrowly misses a good rating despite good projected mileage, wear resistance, and efficiency. Average noise levels and only adequate sustainability in its Turkish production prevent a higher environmental score. Overall, the Falken Eurowinter HS02 performs best on dry and wet roads but struggles in winter conditions, with room for improvement in environmental aspects.

  • The Falken placed sixth overall, with its strongest results coming in dry conditions. The tire led dry braking by a full metre but finished fourth in dry handling, with grip dropping on second laps. Snow performance was weak, placing last in both braking and traction tests. Snow handling also finished sixth, showing loose behavior and requiring careful inputs. Wet performance was similarly modest - the tire placed sixth in both aquaplaning tests and equal fifth in wet braking, about a metre behind the leader. It managed fourth on the wet circle but matched its fifth place in wet handling, showing adequate balance but lower grip levels. The Falken recorded the highest rolling resistance scores in the test.
