Product description & features

Pirelli Powergy's summer passenger car and SUV tyres revolve around their ability to develop maximum braking force on damp surfaces. As well as this, they can remove water from the contact patch rapidly when the weather is warm. The Powergy features an asymmetric design with three wide straight channels from the front to the back. These design elements also feature a wide array of small slits and channels to improve braking and grip on wet surfaces. The outside edge is designed to stabilise the tyre through cornering.

The Powergy was designed to improve the energy used to roll the tyre, thanks to its low rolling resistance. XL construction is also offered, which is used to strengthen the sidewalls on vehicles with a higher load demand. You can find the Pirelli Powergy on Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread with three wide channels
  • Small slits for wet grip
  • Stable outer edge for cornering

Tyre review for Pirelli Powergy 235/40R18 95Y XL
I am not impressed with the performance of these tyres as they do not compare at all with the UniRoyal ones I used to use.

Tyre review for Pirelli Powergy 235/40R18 95Y XL
While less impressive than the Michelin ePrimacy they replaced, they are more affordable. Fuel economy is not as good, but in general they are noiseless and good in terms of driveability and wet grip.

They seem to be alright, I don't have much else to add.
