About Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season 285/45R22 114Y XL LR PNCS

The Scorpion Zero All Season is a road-focused UHP tyre designed for premium SUVs and is engineered to provide performance across different seasons and driving conditions, including light snow-covered roads. Its asymmetric tread and specialized compounds are designed to balance dry and wet-road control, safety, stability, comfort and noise performance. 

Ultra High Performance SUV Design

The Scorpion Zero All Season is specifically developed for sporty premium and prestige SUVs. Its construction and optimized asymmetric tread are designed to provide responsive handling and stable road behaviour throughout the year. 

All-Season Road Performance

This tyre is designed for use across a broad range of weather conditions, including dry roads, wet roads and light snow. Pirelli identifies the Scorpion Zero All Season as an M+S tyre, making it more suitable for mud and light snow than a conventional summer tyre. 

High Sipe Density

The tread features more than 30 metres of sipes, providing additional biting edges intended to improve grip and traction in winter conditions and on light snow-covered surfaces.

Curved Sipes

Curved sipes in the internal tread blocks are designed to increase traction on snow while supporting vehicle control in winter driving conditions. Water Evacuation

Four longitudinal grooves are designed to move water away from the contact area efficiently. The external grooves are smaller to help the tread adapt to the road surface while maintaining dry-road safety. 

Dry Braking and Tread Durability

Pirelli uses an optimized tread depth and tread design to support dry braking performance while maintaining resistance to wear. The tread architecture is also designed to provide consistent performance throughout the tyre's service life. 

PNCS™ Noise Reduction Technology

The PNCS™ version incorporates a sound-absorbing material inside the tyre to reduce noise transmitted into the vehicle cabin. Pirelli states that PNCS™ can reduce cabin tyre noise significantly compared with non-PNCS tyres. 

Land Rover LR Original Equipment Specification

The LR marking identifies this 285/45R22 114Y XL version as a Land Rover original-equipment specification. This is particularly relevant for vehicles that require the LR homologated tyre specification. 

XL Load Version

The 114Y specification is an XL, or Extra Load, version. A 114 load index corresponds to a maximum rated load of 1,180 kg per tyre under the applicable conditions.

Y Speed Rating

The Y speed category corresponds to a maximum rated speed of 300 km/h. Actual driving speed must always remain within legal limits and the vehicle manufacturer's specifications. 

Winter Capability and 3PMSF Status

The Scorpion Zero All Season carries the M+S marking and is designed to provide improved control in light snow. However, Pirelli states that the product range does not carry the 3PMSF snowflake symbol and is not intended for severe ice and snow conditions. 

European Tyre Label

For the exact 285/45R22 114Y XL LR PNCS specification, Pirelli lists an A fuel-efficiency rating, C wet-grip rating and B external rolling-noise rating, with external noise of 73 dB. 

2024 Production

The requested product is specified as a 2024 tyre. The exact manufacturing week of an individual tyre should be verified from the DOT/date code on its sidewall, because the model and size specification alone do not establish the production week.

Who Should Consider This Tyre?

Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season 285/45R22 114Y XL LR PNCS is intended for compatible premium SUVs, particularly vehicles requiring the Land Rover LR homologation. It is suitable for drivers looking for high-performance all-season road handling, wet and dry control, light-snow capability and reduced cabin noise.
