Pirelli Launches Scorpion XTM AT Tires for Rivian and Other EVs
Pirelli just dropped a new all-terrain tire called the Scorpion XTM AT, and it’s built for both gas and electric trucks and SUVs—including Rivians.
There are two versions: the standard Scorpion XTM AT for traditional vehicles, and the Scorpion XTM AT Elect for EVs and plug-in hybrids. The Elect version is tuned for efficiency with super low rolling resistance, which Pirelli says can give up to 5% more range compared to the non-Elect version.
Both versions are 3PMSF-rated (three-peak mountain snowflake), meaning they’re snow-ready. And yes—Pirelli confirmed they offer sizes that fit Rivian’s 20” and 22” wheels, so this could be a solid upgrade option for owners looking to balance all-terrain grip with road efficiency.
At launch, there are 21 total sizes: 10 standard and 11 Elect, with wheel sizes ranging from 17” to 22” depending on the version. The Elect isn’t any quieter than the standard version and gives up a bit of mud performance to boost range—but that’s the expected EV trade-off.
They also come with a 55,000-mile limited warranty, so they’re clearly meant to go the distance on North American roads.
I’m seriously considering picking up a set to test on a Rivian—if there’s interest, I’ll do a full hands-on review soon.
After our experience with the OE Pirelli Scorpion AT tires, I’d be much more interested in a 55k non-howl warranty than a tread wear warranty.
15K miles on ours and I’m probably going to replace them soon just b/c of the noise they make. Honestly, I’d have a hard time buying Pirelli AT tires again after this experience.
Why no 21″ version? =\
There aren’t a lot of 21″ wheel options out there so many tire manufacturers don’t make them since there is no ROI on them.
And no mention of a 21″ tire.
I’m still wondering why you don’t just go with the Goodyear Territory which are the included on DM Standard’s. They seem like a real sweet spot for Rivian’s. 3 Peak rated, quiet. If these are still loud like I keep hearing the OE ones are then I don’t see a real reason to get
A review that compares this to Outpost nAT is what I’m here for 🤠
The Toyo open country a/t III ev have been really good to me. 7k miles so far and getting way better efficiency than the stock pirelli a/t, all while being a better and more aggressive off-road tire, and I’m running the LT, would love to see how much better the non LT would be in efficiency. So far avg 2.58
Can you do a comparison of these new pirelli xtm at EV vs the Toyo at3 ev?
So, in the world of Rivian OME tire offerings. How do these compare to the existing 275/65R20 116H SL Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus tires as part of the Rivian All-Terrain OMEM option? aka less or more aggressive tread / off-road performance? Better or worse range? etc…
I wonder what kind of range hit you’ll take on these compared to an All-Season tire.
