Ranked #9 of 10
Securing ninth place out of ten competitors, the Pirelli Scorpion Elect made a noteworthy entry into the summer automotorsport arena. Testers highlighted its largely safe, understeering behavior in dry corners and commended its very quiet exterior noise, which alongside high fuel efficiency and decent ride comfort, stood out as distinct advantages. However, the tyre faced criticism for its long braking distances on dry asphalt and sluggish steering response. Its grip on wet surfaces and steering precision were also found wanting, which somewhat marred its overall performance. Despite these mixed assessments, the Pirelli Scorpion Elect was praised for excelling in dry handling and for being the quietest tyre in terms of exterior noise, ultimately earning a final rating of 'Good'.
