The Which? Car braking test highlights any problems with a car's braking system, whether it be an excessively long stopping distance or a drop-off in performance after repeated applications (brake fade).
Car owners often take the middle pedal in their car for granted – until an emergency. Every car tested in the Which? Car test centre gets an exhaustive (and exhausting) brake test, so we can determine the models that possess the ultimate stopping power.
