Pirelli P Zero Winter 2: Unmatched Winter Performance
Exceptional Winter Safety
The Pirelli P Zero Winter 2 tire is engineered in collaboration with top-tier premium and prestige car manufacturers to ensure optimal performance in winter conditions. It promises outstanding safety with excellent braking capabilities on snow, earning a full "A-Class" rating for wet grip on the EU label.
Comfort and Durability
This tire offers a comfortable ride and long-lasting durability throughout its lifespan, making it a reliable choice for winter driving.
Elect™ Technology for Electric Vehicles
Available in select sizes, the P Zero Winter 2 features Elect™ technology, specifically designed for electric and plug-in vehicles, marking a first in Pirelli's winter tire segment.
Sustainable Innovation
This tire is crafted from over 50% bio-based and recycled materials, verified by Bureau Veritas. Depending on the tire size, the composition includes 15-16% bio-based materials like natural rubber, biochemicals, and bio-resins, and 34-35% recycled materials such as metallic reinforcements and, through a mass balance approach, synthetic rubber, silica, and carbon black.
Legal Notes
At launch, 13 out of 31 sizes feature Elect™ technology, and 13 out of 31 sizes are composed of over 50% bio-based and recycled materials. All 31 sizes available at launch received an 'A' rating for wet grip on the EU label.

The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher. (Source: European Commission Impact Assessment * when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note: Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).* *Source: wdk Economic Association of the German Rubber Industry eV
Please note: Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016. B The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016. C The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.
