NEW YORK — Pirelli Tire North America Inc. has updated its range of North American-specific all-season tires with the launch of the Cinturato P7 All Season Plus II as the successor to the original All Season Plus model launched in 2012.
The Cinturato P7 All Season Plus II features a tread compound and "optimized" footprint for improved behavior on wet surfaces, Pirelli said, which aids in reducing the tire's wet stopping distance.
Pirellli's engineers focused on improving the tire's wet handling and wet traction, while maintaining the treadwear, winter traction, noise, comfort, dry handling and steering performance of the previous generation, Pirelli said.
Pirelli rolled out the Cinturato P7 All Season Plus eight years ago with the marketing message — "One tire, four seasons, no compromises" — to emphasize the line's four-seasons capabilities.
