Nokian Hakkapeliitta CR4
The Bottom Line
The Hakkapeliitta CR4 is a budget-friendly option for winter driving, offering fair handling and treadlife. However, its lack of 3PMSF certification and lower wet grip score might deter those who drive in severe winter conditions.
Important Note
The absence of 3PMSF certification may limit its appeal for those needing certified snow performance.
Pros
- Handling score of 6.5 is decent for a winter tire, offering predictable control in typical winter conditions.
- Treadlife score of 6 suggests a reasonable lifespan for a winter tire, though exact mileage may vary.
Cons
- Lacks 3PMSF certification, which may be a concern for those needing assured snow performance.
- Wet grip score of 5.5 is on the lower side, potentially leading to less confidence in rainy winter conditions.
- Noise level score of 6 could be bothersome on longer drives compared to quieter competitors like the Continental VikingContact 7.
