“I have the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season from factory on my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Not the exact same tire as yours, yours is the updated version. Great tires, quiet, good in rain and light snow. I would buy again when its time to replace mine.”

We haven't collected enough community discussion about this tire yet.
Tire B
Mixed
Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season
Community opinion on the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season is mixed, with strong praise for wet traction, dry handling, and quiet initial ride quality. However, several owners report issues with high-speed vibrations, cupping, increased road noise as the tires age, and mediocre tread life. Winter performance receives conflicting assessments, ranging from adequate in light snow to requiring dedicated winter setups.

“Got a set of Pirelli Scorpion Verde all season for an EV9 recently. Ordered because I needed a higher treadwear count more than anything. Marcus in village tyres. Sound as a pound, will try and source whatever you want. Will also take delivery and fit anything you might order yourself 👌🏼”

“All Season tyres Finding All Season tyres for my EV9 is proving to be an impossible task. Apparently this tyre size is unusual. I only found Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season (113V, LR) which is not an EV tyre but in fact intended for Land Rover. And it's not 3PMSF (real winter certification required in places like Germany). Anyone has some experience with this? Or is everyone with summer+winter tyres set up. Thank you!”

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
