OVERVIEW

The Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season Plus II is a touring, all season tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Pirelli offers a 65,000 mile treadwear warranty.

The tire uses its tread design and compound materials to promote a safer year round performance. The asymmetric ribbed tread design with the optimized siping detail and the silica-enhanced polymer compound work together to improve the dry, wet and winter weather grip on the road surface. The tread design increases the number of biting edges gripping the road surface throughout its performance, while the compound keeps its rubber flexibility in various temperatures. The tread's circumferential grooves and high-density lateral siping placement manage to prevent hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the tire's footprint. This greatly enhances the wet and winter weather performing security as well.

The ideal tread design also helps boost the tire's overall controllability. The flat footprint and the ribbed tread design enable the tire to closely follow the road surface throughout the drive. This greatly improves the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The steering becomes quicker and more precise, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure. The optimized shoulder pattern enhances the cornering capability by using additional biting edges to firmly grip onto the road surface. The high-density siping placement creates friction between the tire and the road surface at the moment of braking, significantly shortening the tire's braking distance. This combination enables the driver to maintain their control over the vehicle at all times.

The silica-combined polymer compound promotes a fuel conscious performance. The silica and the polymer elements in the compound material keep the tire cool during the drive, while the tread helps ease the driving pressure off. As a result, there is no heat build-up while the tires are in motion, minimizing the rolling resistance. The rolling resistance is the driving pressure, which determines the vehicle's needed fuel intake in order to keep the tires in motion. Lowering the rolling resistance will lessen the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions significantly. This results in a fuel efficient and environmentally conscious drive.

The lowered rolling resistance, the durable compound and the ideal tread design optimize the tire's tread wear rate and manner. The compound's heat resistant performance and the lessened rolling resistance prevent heat build-up along the tread area. This effectively prevents premature wear. On the other hand, the tread's ribbed pattern and flat footprint manage to ensure even pressure distribution across the tire. The equally circulated forces of acceleration, cornering and braking avoid irregular wear formation. The resulting slower and even wear increases the tire's usability and tread life significantly.

The Scorpion Verde All Season Plus II provides high driving comfort levels at all times. The asymmetric tread design features an optimized pitch sequence and phasing. This tread pattern manages to generate a special sound-cancelling frequency, which negates soundwaves before they can reach the vehicle's cabin. As road and tread pattern noise cannot ruin the passengers' driving enjoyment, the tire guarantees a quiet and comfortable driving experience.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
