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 245/40R18 97Y XL
First of all, tracking was checked both when the tyres were fitted and when they were changed, and it was in the accepted range. These tyres are great for grip and confidence on the wet. However, they do wear quite quickly. After 14 months, I had only 4mm of tread left, so I went for Michelins instead.
