MILAN, Italy—Pirelli & C. S.p.a. has upgraded its P Zero Trofeo semi-slick ultra-high-performance (UHP) tire line with a version designed for car makers striving to highlight the performance of their sportiest models.
The new version, the P Zero Trofeo RS, offers more performance in dry conditions than the Trofeo R replacement market version, Pirelli said, as well as added consistency, thanks to knowledge gleaned from the tire maker's extensive motorsports experience.
Italian car maker Pagani Automobili is offering the Trofeo S as an optional fitment on its latest hypercar, the Utopia—a two-door, mid-engine racing-inspired car powered by a 6-liter twin-turbo V12 Mercedes-based engine capable of generating 860hp.
