The Scorpion All Terrain Plus, which has been designed for the most challenging conditions. The car is the new Porsche 911 Dakar, a reinterpretation of the classic coupé in all-terrain form, which has been designed to maximize its off-road capabilities. The new Porsche is offered exclusively with Pirelli tires as original equipment, including summer P Zero tires for use on asphalt and P Zero Winter for optimal grip in the colder months.
Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus is the tire from the Scorpion range that has been specifically designed to offer resistance and support over the most demanding terrain, but it has been adapted to allow the Porsche 911 Dakar the versatility of an off-roader as well as the high performance that has always epitomized this sporting icon.
Pirelli’s research and development department has given a new family of compounds their debut with this product, which are able to handle the performance of this car both on loose surfaces and asphalt. Furthermore, the structure of the tire has been strengthened –especially at the back – and optimized to improve the contact patch. Compared to the traditional Scorpion All Terrain Plus, the new tire for the Porsche 911 Dakar features a tread pattern that equally delivers competitive performance in the dry, making it as effective on a circuit as in the desert. All this is achieved without compromising the fundamental aspects that a tire needs for everyday use, such as stability, safety and comfort. Throughout the outdoor testing schedule for this tire, Pirelli drove the 911 Dakar on all the main proving grounds in Europe, as well as on variety of tracks representative of a wide range of conditions.
