Pirelli Unveils SCORPION MX32 Mid Soft Tyre in Australia

Pirelli Australia has launched the next-generation SCORPION™ MX32 Mid Soft, its flagship motocross tyre, with a high-octane test session at Troy Bayliss’ private track in Boyland, Queensland. This latest iteration of Pirelli’s championship-winning tyre brings cutting-edge performance to Aussie riders, from ProMX competitors to weekend shredders.

A Legacy of Champions

With 82 World Championship titles under its belt, Pirelli’s SCORPION™ range has been the choice of motocross legends like Stefan Everts, Antonio Cairoli, Tim Gajser, and Jorge Prado since 1980. The SCORPION™ MX32 Mid Soft made its Australian racing debut at the 2025 ProMX Championship’s opening round, partnered with KTM Racing Australia, showcasing its dominance on local soil.

Performance Upgrades

The SCORPION™ MX32 Mid Soft is engineered for medium-soft terrain, delivering unmatched braking, cornering, and traction. Key enhancements include:

• Superior Braking: A reengineered front tread pattern digs deeper for enhanced grip and control during deceleration.
• Smoother Cornering: Updated central knobs on the front tyre improve stability and precision for faster, more confident turns.
• Holeshot and Exit Power: The rear tyre’s revised knob layout boosts torsional rigidity and lateral grip, ensuring explosive starts and acceleration.
• Versatile Grip: A new compound and knob geometry provide consistent performance and durability across varied terrain.

Standout Design

Pirelli’s motorsport heritage shines through with:

• Bold, high-contrast sidewall lettering for trackside visibility.
• Iconic yellow Pirelli labels (one per tyre, smaller than MXGP stickers, applied during production).
• Embossed SCORPION™ logo on the tread, a nod to its championship pedigree.
