Pirelli has launched an enhanced version of its high-performance tire, known as the P Zero Trofeo RS. This tire is specifically designed for use as original equipment on the prestigious Pagani Utopia supercar.
According to a recent press release from Pirelli, the P Zero Trofeo RS is an evolution of its predecessor, the P Zero Trofeo R. While the Trofeo R was primarily intended for aftermarket applications, the Trofeo RS has been engineered to meet the specific requirements of automakers for factory installation. Pagani, being at the forefront of innovation, was the first to adopt this cutting-edge tire.

The newly developed tire incorporates a multi-compound tread that can be customized for various driving conditions. For the Utopia, Pirelli’s engineers carefully balanced the tire’s capabilities to provide exceptional performance on the track without compromising its on-road usability. Notably, the rear tires have been equipped with a compound that prioritizes performance, showcasing Pirelli’s commitment to delivering an optimized driving experience.
Pirelli’s engineers utilized advanced simulations to evaluate different tire profiles and contact patches before producing physical prototypes. This approach allowed them to explore a wide range of design possibilities more efficiently and effectively.

The P Zero Trofeo RS carries a treadwear rating of 180, a traction rating of AA, and an A temperature rating. Although these ratings are determined by the automaker rather than conforming to an industry standard, a 180 treadwear rating indicates that the tire offers longevity beyond just a few thousand miles—assuming it is not predominantly used on the track.
Pirelli plans to make the P Zero Trofeo RS available to other automakers as well as offer it as an aftermarket option. Meanwhile, the P Zero Trofeo R will continue to be manufactured.
Unveiled in 2022 as the successor to the iconic Pagani Huayra, the Utopia represents only the third new model in Pagani’s illustrious 25-year history. Following Pagani’s renowned tradition, the Utopia is powered by a twin-turbo 6.0-liter AMG-sourced V-12 engine, generating an impressive 852 hp and 811 lb-ft of torque. The car boasts a dry curb weight of 2,822 pounds, thanks to its carbon-titanium monocoque, which features the unmistakable Pagani design language while integrating innovative elements like active aerodynamic devices.
