Pirelli Unveils the SCORPION MX32 MID SOFT: The Latest Evolution in Motocross Tires

Feb 18, 2025 | Product Reviews, News

Pirelli has launched the SCORPION MX32 MID SOFT, the latest iteration of its most successful motocross tire, further cementing its dominance in the FIM Motocross World Championship. With an impressive track record of 82 world titles since 1980, Pirelli continues to push the boundaries of performance with this next-generation off-road tire.

Enhanced Performance for Maximum Control

The SCORPION MX32 MID SOFT is the result of decades of racing expertise and collaboration with legendary motocross riders like Stefan Everts, Antonio Cairoli, Tim Gajser, and Jeffrey Herlings. This new version brings significant advancements over its predecessor, improving key aspects such as:

  • Braking performance – A redesigned front tire tread enhances stability and impact absorption for better control during hard braking.
  • Cornering precision – The updated central knobs on the front tire offer increased stability and smoother handling through turns.
  • Optimized traction – A revised knob layout on the rear tire enhances torsional rigidity, improving grip during acceleration and corner exits.
  • Versatility on mixed terrain – A newly formulated tread compound extends durability while maintaining performance across different surfaces.

From the Track to the Rider

Staying true to Pirelli’s racing philosophy, the SCORPION MX32 MID SOFT is not exclusive to professional riders. It will be available to motocross enthusiasts who want race-proven performance in their own off-road adventures.

The tire is specifically designed for medium-soft terrain, making it ideal for sandy, loamy, and moderately compacted tracks. It will debut in the 2025 Motocross World Championship, where some of the sport’s top riders will put it to the test under extreme racing conditions.

Premium Design with High-Performance Aesthetics

Beyond its engineering upgrades, Pirelli has refined the tire’s aesthetics, reinforcing its premium identity with:

  • High-contrast lettering on the sidewalls for better visibility on the track.
  • A signature yellow Pirelli label, ensuring quick recognition during races.
  • The SCORPION logo on the side, a mark of Pirelli’s off-road heritage.

The SCORPION MX32 MID SOFT will be available in the following sizes:

Front Tire:

  • 80/100 – 21 M/C 51M MST

Rear Tires:

  • 100/90 – 19 NHS 57M

Strengthening Pirelli’s Off-Road Leadership

The SCORPION MX line has long been a staple in motocross, supercross, and off-road racing. Pirelli’s broader SCORPION range includes tires designed for rally, enduro, and adventure riding, covering everything from sandy trails to technical hardpack tracks.

With the launch of the SCORPION MX32 MID SOFT, Pirelli continues to set the standard in motocross tire technology, delivering a product that blends innovation, durability, and world-class performance.
