Pirelli introduces its first all-season tyre to Ireland

Pirelli is set to introduce its first all-season tyre to Ireland – the Cinturato All Season.

The Cinturato All Season enhances Pirelli’s line-up by offering a tyre that works equally well throughout the year, in accordance with all local laws and offering the highest standards of safety on every road surface.

It is perfect in summer, without any of the performance drop-off seen by winter tyres in hot conditions, and works just as well in non-extreme winter conditions – as typically seen in towns and cities. In fact, the Cinturato All Season delivers its very best performance in those conditions where having either a summer tyre or a winter tyre would be a compromise.

Pirelli has created a genuinely all-purpose tyre that allows the car owner to just ‘arrive and drive’ – whatever the conditions. Thanks to the Cinturato All Season every motorist can sleep easily at night, saving time by not having to carry out the traditional seasonal tyre change, and also feeling the reassurance of Pirelli’s Seal Inside technology, which automatically seals up the hole in the event of a puncture, meaning that journeys can continue uninterrupted.

Pirelli continues to recommend winter tyres for performance cars and extreme conditions, but the company also wanted to satisfy people who prefer a single tyre due to their particular pattern of vehicle usage, rather than alternating between summer and winter tyres. The new Cinturato All Season is aimed at owners of city cars, who aren’t looking for extreme performance and who don’t cover a huge number of kilometres per year. In particular, the new Pirelli tyre is aimed at women, young drivers, and second family cars, with the idea of not just offering a tyre but an actual ‘service’ that makes life easier: ideal for those who live in large and busy cities, where winter conditions are never that extreme. The All Season is designed for recently manufactured cars with small to medium engines, and it will be available in 15-inch, 16-inch and 17-inch versions. By the end of 2015, there will be 21 different sizes of the All Season tyre.
