THE ELECTRIC FORD MUSTANG MACH-E GT PERFORMANCE WILL BE FITTED WITH CUSTOMIZED PIRELLI P ZERO TIRES
Pirelli will fit the new Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Edition from the first team, the fastest and most powerful version of the oval firm's first 100% electric SUV. From this new technical collaboration between the two firms, a specific P Zero has emerged that offers the perfect balance between handling and comfort, preserving, of course, the typically sporty touch of all Mustangs thanks to the application of know-how from motorsport. .
P ZERO 'ELECTRIC'
The tires developed for the Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Edition are available in 245/45 R20 103Y XL XL sizes and have an 'Elect' marking on the sidewall, denoting the presence of this new Pirelli technology specifically for electric and electric models. plug-in hybrids, whose performance depends largely on tires. Elect comprises a set of technical specifications of the compound and the carcass that, in sum, generate a set of advantages: low rolling resistance to increase autonomy, reduced noise levels to benefit ride comfort, immediate grip in line with the instantaneous torque of electric drives and a specific casing capable of supporting the heavy weight of battery-powered cars.
The P Zero of Ford's new zero emission badge has been created following Pirelli's 'Perfect Kit' philosophy. During its design and development, the emphasis has been on driving, so that whoever sits behind the wheel enjoys the benefits of a vehicle with two engines (one per axle) and, therefore, four-wheel drive. The improvement in performance and the ability to cope with any condition of dry or wet asphalt also entered the equation, resolved thanks to a perfect integration between car and tires. The vehicle distributes torque to each axle independently, providing more responsive acceleration and more precise handling than in the conventional powertrain scheme. In summary, the P Zero of the Ford Mach-E GT Performance Edition put the accent on performance, but without neglecting a high demand in terms of handling and comfort.
