Pirelli Scorpion Winter: Superior Winter Performance for SUVs and CUVs
Exceptional Winter Traction
The Pirelli Scorpion Winter tire is expertly crafted for the demands of modern SUVs and Crossover Utility Vehicles (CUVs), particularly those in the high-end segment. Designed to deliver unparalleled stability and control, this tire excels in snowy conditions, ensuring drivers can navigate winter roads with confidence. Its innovative design also provides remarkable performance on wet and dry surfaces, contributing significantly to driver safety.
Premium Quality for Premium Vehicles
This brand-new premium winter tire from Pirelli is tailored to meet the specific needs of top-tier SUVs and CUVs. Special emphasis has been placed on achieving maximum driving stability and control in snowy conditions. However, the Scorpion Winter also impresses with short braking distances and excellent handling on rain-soaked and dry roads, making it the ideal winter tire for the modern SUV.
Top-Class Performance
Recognized as the best in class for snow braking, handling, and traction, the Scorpion Winter has been awarded by TUV for its outstanding performance. It offers excellent braking and handling capabilities on wet and dry roads, even at low temperatures, ensuring you stay in control no matter the weather conditions. Additionally, this tire boasts low noise levels and reduced rolling resistance, providing a quieter and more fuel-efficient ride.
WINTER AT-TRACTION
SCORPION™ WINTER has been designed to fit modern SUVs and CUVs, with a special focus on the high-end segment.
The goal is no fear in down-hill braking and cornering in winter road conditions, whilst maintaining total control.
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.
