Pirelli Scorpion AS3. They’re so quiet.
Today I had a 600 km trip in -6*C, half of the way I used chill mode, tried to keep constant speed 100 km/h (winter tires Sottozero 3, 18\u201d without aero) and I got 175Wh/km. After charging I switched to Normal and continued my trip: average consumption kept floating near 178, I switched to Chill and saw how it slowly decreased to 169Wh/km.
We replaced the OEM Bridgestone with Pirelli Scorpion A/S 3. They are very quiet and smooth riding. I can highly recommend them.
the two tires people keep circling back to are Michelin Defender 2 (for max longevity + quiet ride) and Pirelli Scorpion WeatherActive (for folks who want legit wet/snow grip without going full winter tire). Both feel noticeably better than the OEM rubber Mazda ships these with less thump over expansion joints and far more planted in rain.
I took a mini ski vacation and on my way home last night it was snowing pretty hard. I picked up a '25 GLE 450e in June so this was my first real snow test with it. Since its a lease I'm not going to invest in winter tires and was curious how the 21" staggered Pirelli Scorpions Zero's would do. For an all-season tire it did all I wanted. I wasn't doing 70 but 40-50 mph was very comfortable. Visibility was bad for all of the 170mi ride home limiting what I was willing to do. The other plus I averaged 37mpg.
I have a 24 ecoboost awd fx4. I was getting about 28 with the stock tires. I upgraded to 235 65 17 all Terrain tires and it has dropped to 25. I don't mind the trade off as these tires are worlds better than those stock Pirelli Scorpions.
Scorps in the winter are fine, not great, and terrible at anything backcountry related that isn’t dry.
Pirelli are fine. I think they get bad rep but worked well even in light snow and rain.
Our used XC90 came with Pirelli 21s (assuming OEM, car has 47k miles), which are very noisy. I've dealt with it for over a year
While braking on the big straight away, every single time I was sliding, ABS kicked on, and I had to counter steer, these tires are awful and got scrubbed hard. Imo I was not overdriving though, I didn't skid much, where I did, it was very brief.
