Supercars at the Geneva Motor Show rolled in on Pirelli tires
Pirelli tyres were featured as original equipment on four high-profile Geneva show debuts. The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster and Maserati’s latest Quattroporte both feature bespoke versions the Italian tyre maker’s P Zero, while a tailor-made version of the P Zero Corsa will be supplied to the McLaren P1 and Ferrari’s Enzo replacement, the LaFerrari.
The made-to-measure P Zero tyres fitted to the new Lamborghini are the result of a close collaboration between the Italian supercar maker’s and Pirelli’s engineers; Pirelli says they were “able to develop an innovative solution that guaranteed the best stability, comfort and handling on a car capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 kilometres per hour in just three seconds and reaching a maximum speed of 350 kilometres per hour.” The development work carried out by Pirelli’s technicians particularly concentrated on the rolling circumference of the tyres. In order to best respond to the needs of the Lamborghini’s four-wheel drive system, structures built with special materials and firmer compounds were used. This contains the deformation of the tyre and maintains the high performance and rolling characteristics in all usage conditions. “The new P Zero tyres have been designed to provide maximum grip and react quickly to changing speeds throughout the rev range, in order to transmit all the car’s power cleanly onto the ground,” reported the tyre maker in a statement.”
