Vittoria is coming in hot to the 2025 Sea Otter Classic. Starting from the ground up, adding a clear focus on helping riders make smarter tire choices for a better gravel experience. The Italian Tire Titan released a trio of updates that signal a more refined, rider-first approach to gravel tech.

Terrain Score: Gravel Tire Decision-Making Tool
The first update is the all-new Gravel Terrain Score, a scale designed to demystify tire selection. Riders tackling everything from buttery hardpack to sloppy post-thunderstorm singletrack can find clear tire tread guidance. Born from the data-heavy Vittoria White Paper #4 and refined with input from pro athletes. The Terrain Score system breaks riding surfaces into five super-categories: Hardpack, Fine Loose, Mixed, Coarse Loose, and Mud.

Think of it as a matchmaking tool for you and your tires. Each category is scored from 0 (pavement territory) to 100 (cue the MTB playlist), giving riders an intuitive roadmap to the best tire for the job.
“Riders can now simply look at the terrain they’ll face and trace down to the tire that fits,” says Stijn Vriends, Vittoria’s Chairman & CEO. “It’s about simplifying choices so gravel cyclists spend less time guessing and more time riding.”

New Terrain, New Names: Terreno Range Rebooted
Vittoria is also renaming and updating its Endurance Gravel tire lineup to match the Terrain Score. Out with the Terreno naming convention, in with the new Terrain Score-based labels:
- Terreno Zero becomes T10
- Terreno Dry becomes T30
- Terreno Mix becomes T50
- Mezcal-style knobs come in as the T70




Air-Liner Light Gravel Insert Expands for More Riders

- Ride Feel: The insert compresses progressively, smoothing out chatter and reducing fatigue on longer rides.
- Burp and Impact Protection: That same progressive feel helps eliminate burps and protects rims from snake bites.
- Run-Flat Capable: The semi-permeable foam can slowly retain and release air in case of a total flat—and yes, it plays nice with sealant.
