The Bottom Line
The Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV is well-suited for SUV drivers who need strong dry grip and handling in winter conditions. However, its wet grip and lack of 3PMSF certification could be significant drawbacks for those in wetter climates.

The absence of 3PMSF certification may deter buyers who need guaranteed snow performance.
Pros
- Dry grip score of 8.5 is strong for a winter tire, providing confidence on clear, cold roads.
- Handling is also rated at 8.5, making it responsive for an SUV winter tire.
Cons
- Wet grip score of 5.5 suggests caution is needed during rainy winter days, as it lags behind competitors like the Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance+ SUV.
- Noise level is rated at 6, which might be noticeable on long drives compared to quieter options like the Continental VikingContact 7.
