Ford helping drivers get to grips with winter conditions

Drivers of Ford vehicles will be delighted to hear that the manufacturer has released the latest technology Pirelli winter tyres to help deal with the difficult road conditions.

The new Pirelli tyres provide a number of safety benefits and can give drivers greater peace-of-mind.

Pirelli has utilised a specific cold-weather tyre compound and tread pattern which maximises the adhesion on dangerous, wet, snowy and icy surfaces.

Paul Muers, marketing manager for Ford Customer Service Division, said: "The snowy and icy conditions we're experiencing right now and the severity of last winter really bring the benefits of these tyres into sharp focus."

Ford has joined together with Pirelli to provide its customers with winter weather tyres, which up until recently had not been an option for British drivers.

The two manufacturers believe that the UK will experience more than 30 days where the average temperature will be below seven degrees C, which is the temperature at which standard tyres lose performance.

Vauxhall recently added "snow socks" to its accessory range to help its customers overcome difficult winter weather conditions.
