Pirelli Winter 270 SottoZero Series II: The Ultimate Winter Tire for Performance Enthusiasts
Exceptional Performance for Sports Cars and Luxury Sedans
If you enjoy driving your sports car or luxury sedan with precision and speed, even in winter, the Pirelli Winter 270 SottoZero Series II is the tire for you. Designed to maintain control at high speeds in cold conditions, this tire offers outstanding grip and handling on icy and wet roads. The unique angled grooves help minimize road noise, ensuring a quieter ride.
Optimal Driving Experience in Autumn and Winter Conditions
The Winter SottoZero Series II is engineered to perform efficiently in wet and cold temperatures below 7°C, significantly reducing the risk of aquaplaning. It delivers consistent performance during unpredictable autumn and winter weather, whether you encounter rain, ice, or snow. This tire guarantees top performance on all surfaces, making it an ideal choice for challenging conditions.
Advanced Features for Superior Safety and Comfort
The tire's wide grooves, extending to the shoulder, ensure effective water drainage, while Pirelli's patented Hydro Static Tank (HST) system increases water capture within the grooves, counteracting micro-turbulence that can cause aquaplaning. This innovative design is perfect for sports vehicles and mid-to-high-end sedans, offering superior driving safety in winter.
Enhanced Performance with Asymmetrical Tread Design
The asymmetrical tread pattern of the Winter SottoZero Series II is divided into two functional areas. The inner section efficiently channels water away, while the outer section, with its larger and more robust tread blocks, provides excellent grip on snowy surfaces. The W270 version also features a unique bi-compound solution, enhancing its performance further.
Quiet and Comfortable Ride
With its low rolling noise, the Pirelli Winter 270 SottoZero Series II ensures a quieter and more comfortable driving experience, making it an excellent choice for those who value both performance and comfort. This tire is the perfect companion for demanding drivers seeking exceptional performance on dry, wet, and snowy roads, especially when temperatures drop below 7°C.
THE PERFECT ROUTE TO YOUR WINTER DESTINATION
The ideal choice for sports cars and top end vehicles, balancing performance, safety and respect for the environment. For demanding drivers, the WINTER SOTTOZERO™ SERIE II guarantees excellent performance on dry roads, in the wet and in the presence of snow. In temperatures below 7°C, it counters aquaplaning more effectively when compared to a summer tyre.
An innovative tyre for sports cars and medium to high-powered saloons, it offers excellent driving safety in all road conditions during the cold weather season. For demanding drivers, the Winter SOTTOZERO™ Serie II guarantees excellent performance on dry roads, in the wet and in the presence of snow. In temperatures below 7°C, it counters aquaplaning more effectively when compared to a summer tyre.
The asymmetric tread pattern is divided into two distinct elements. The inner area expels water effectively whilst the external area, with its more rigid and spaced blocks, ensures high levels of grip on snow. These features on the W270 version are enhanced by the exclusive patented twin-compound solution. Characterised by low rolling resistance, the Winter SOTTOZERO™ Serie II also provides low noise levels, enhancing comfort in the cabin.
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.
