Pirelli and Alfa Romeo hit the track together
29 Nov 2018|1,276 views
The historic collaboration between Alfa Romeo and Pirelli opens a new chapter, with Pirelli the technical partner of the Alfa Romeo Driving Academy event, at the FCA Group's Balocco test track. This reveals the secrets behind the advanced vehicle dynamics that are the hallmark of every Alfa Romeo.
Track tests and technical insights (from suspension to tyres) explain how the latest generation of Alfa Romeos have recaptured their rightful place at the very top of the premium class. The long relationship between the two famous Milanese companies - Alfa Romeo and Pirelli - is marked by stories of success, victories, cars and people. For these reasons, Pirelli introduced 'AR' marked tyres in 2014 to identify tyres developed specifically for Alfa Romeo, and not only for the most powerful cars in the range.
In total, there are now 43 Pirelli tyre homologations for Alfa Romeo and 33 marked tyres, created as the result of a parallel development programme between the car and its tyres. This bespoke philosophy is used by all the key premium and prestige car manufacturers, which requires up to three years of research and development from Pirelli, including thousands of hours of indoor and outdoor testing, not to mention around 180 prototypes and 4000 development tyres.
