Pirelli SCORPION™ S3 is a high-performance summer tyre developed for SUVs, designed in collaboration with leading car manufacturers to meet the requirements of modern vehicles in terms of performance, comfort and efficiency.
This third generation stands out for its excellent level of grip, both on dry and wet roads. The entire replacement range is rated A for wet grip, ensuring a high level of safety and strong responsiveness, particularly during braking. On dry roads, performance remains first-class with excellent braking capability and high stability, contributing to precise, controlled driving.
Designed to enhance the driving experience of SUVs, this tyre delivers a sense of control and precision, while ensuring smooth handling. It has been optimised to meet the expectations of drivers looking for both performance and everyday comfort.
The SCORPION™ S3 also places emphasis on ride comfort. It benefits from low noise emissions and reduced vibrations thanks to specific developments, providing quieter, more pleasant journeys, even over long distances.
The design of its tread helps maintain consistent performance throughout its service life. This tyre therefore delivers excellent mileage, supporting travel over the long term. Its low rolling resistance promotes good energy efficiency, helping to optimise fuel consumption or range.
The Pirelli SCORPION™ S3 is a complete solution for SUVs, combining safety, longevity, efficiency and comfort for everyday use as well as long journeys.
The deep, continuous transverse grooves and sipes, combined with an optimised void-to-rubber ratio, ensure consistent braking performance on wet roads. This design also helps preserve the appearance of the tread pattern over time.
The optimised layout of the wide central ribs improves stability and steering precision on dry roads. This design also helps to reduce wear, providing excellent mileage, particularly suited to the demands of heavier vehicles.
The redesigned tread pattern, combined with a new high-mobility polymer, enables even pressure distribution and limits shoulder deformation. This design guarantees excellent mileage as well as low rolling resistance, while maintaining long-lasting performance.
The use of a new generation of plasticisers improves grip on wet roads. This technology helps to enhance safety and performance in wet driving conditions.
The new groove angles, developed through virtual design, help to reduce road noise and improve acoustic comfort. The progressive layout of the sipes provides smoother handling and a more refined driving experience.
