Pirelli has designed a new P Zero tyre exclusively for the Hyundai KONA N, which blends performance, control, and comfort to give a really pleasant drive. The latest N model, which was just unveiled to European media, is Hyundai's first SUV. The three pillars that each Hyundai N model is built on are corner rascal, everyday sports car, and race track capability.
A TAILOR-MADE P ZERO FOR THE KONA N:
Pirelli's experts have designed new P Zero tyres in the 235/40R19 96 Y size for the KONA N to fulfil Hyundai's criteria, boosting performance on track and safety while also providing a pleasant driving experience on the road. Over the course of a year, this was accomplished by Hyundai and Pirelli on the Nurburgring and the Namyang track in Korea. Pirelli has created a custom P Zero tyre range for the N division, with low levels of road noise to maximise onboard comfort while maximising each car's performance.

The P Zero tyre was developed as an Ultra High Performance (UHP) product, combining Pirelli's motorsport knowledge with relationships with the world's leading automobile manufacturers. The P Zero tyres for the KONA N follow Pirelli's "perfect fit" concept, focusing on performance without sacrificing driving comfort. There's also a focus on safety, given to the tyre's A label rating and great wet braking performance, as well as longevity, handling, and comfort. The tyre is also inscribed on the sidewall with the letters ‘HN', indicating that it was created specifically for the Korean maker.
PIRELLI ALONGSIDE THE N DIVISION: ON TRACK WITH THE I20N AND THE I30N
Pirelli provides original equipment not just to the Hyundai KONA N, but also to the other sporting cars in the N family, such as the all-new Hyundai i20 N and the new Hyundai i30 N, which, like their predecessors, employ the P Zero (in sizes 215/40R18 89 Y and 235/35R19 91 Y). This strengthens Pirelli's relationship with Hyundai, which began in 2016 with the provision of tyres for the Hyundai i30 Fastback N and Hyundai Veloster N, both of which are primarily sold in the United States. The KONA N's use of Pirelli tyres emphasises the intimate relationship between the Italian tyre maker and Hyundai's sports objective, which now encompasses all of the Korean manufacturer's high-performance models available in Europe.
