Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- All season traction
- Enhanced controllability
- High driving comfort levels
- Longer lasting tread life
OVERVIEW
The Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3 is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Pirelli offers a 70,000 mile treadwear warranty with this model.
The tire offers excellent all season traction by using the durable compound and asymmetric tread design. These work together, in order to enhance the tire's grip in versatile weather conditions. Durable compound elements enable the tire to upgrade its rubber flexibility in summer and winter traction. Additionally, the full-depth sipes generate additional biting edges, optimizing the tire's surface traction. Four circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning, as they channel water and slush from the footprint.
Great controllability is offered with this model. The asymmetric tread design with the ribbed pattern maintains a consistent surface contact. This enhances the tire's steering responsiveness and driving stability, enabling the driver's better control over the vehicle at all times. On the other hand, the special sipe placement creates friction at the moment of braking. This significantly reduces the vehicle's stopping distance.
High driving comfort levels are also promoted. The asymmetric tread design and flat footprint allow the tire to lower road noise and vibrations. The ideal sipe pattern creates a sound frequency that negates sound waves, preventing road noise from reaching the vehicle's cabin. Close road contact absorbs the shock of driving, minimizing vibrations. This combination enables the tire to effectively ensure a quiet and comfortable driving experience.
The Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3 ensures longer-lasting usability. The footprint stability and the durable compound enhance the tread life. Even pressure circulation avoids irregular wear along the tread area, while the compound minimizes tread wear as well. Slow and even wear significantly improves the tire's service life.
