Pirelli P Zero E
WatchPirelli has introduced the P Zero E, a new ultra-high-performance tyre specifically engineered for battery electric vehicles. Distinguished by over 55% of its material being sustainable, the tyre also features a triple A rating on the European tyre label. Additional innovations include low rolling resistance, reduced noise, and the debut of RunForward technology, allowing for continued driving even after a puncture. The tyre will be available in 17 sizes from the second half of 2023.

Hello, does anyone have this model? Can you share your experience with them? I'm interested in installing them on a 2023 Kia Sportage PHEV thx
Unfortunately I've yet to see any reviews of the P Zero E. I drove it on the launch event of the tyre and it seemed incredibly promising, however it's made in so few sizes still it hasn't had much impact in the market.

Yesterday, I replaced the original Bridgestone A001 soundproof foam tires on my NIO ES6 with Pirelli tires, hoping to improve driving safety and ride comfort. These Pirelli tires cost 50% more than the Bridgestone ones, so I expected a corresponding upgrade in overall performance.
However, issues arose during installation. Both new tires showed road force values between 11 and 12, exceeding the safe standard range. After professional road force calibration, the values were optimized down to 4 and 5 respectively.
After repeated adjustments, I have driven around 200 kilometers so far. The most obvious downside is the prominent noise at high speeds. I checked the weather data and confirmed it was only a gentle breeze of level 2 that day, so the noise is not wind noise. Instead, the tire rolling noise is louder than that of Bridgestone tires, and its sound tone is highly similar to wind noise, which cannot be masked even by turning up the car stereo volume.
In terms of shock absorption, it outperforms Bridgestone tires with excellent vibration isolation when passing speed bumps. Since the total mileage is still low, I need more time to experience its full performance. I hope the driving experience will get better after the tire break-in period. Frankly speaking, the current noise performance is quite disappointing, which is inconsistent with its EU Class A noise reduction rating.
