Nereus Sailfish NS601
EU tyre label for every size: 138 sizes of this summer tyre compared with the rest of the market
The Nereus Sailfish NS601 is a summer tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 138 sizes (190 registrations including load and speed variants), for 13″ to 22″ rims.
Wet grip is rated B in every size, fuel efficiency C–D and external rolling noise 69–75 dB. 2 of 190 registrations carry the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) for severe snow.
The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 185/70 R13 (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency C · 69 dB), the weakest 195/40 ZR17 (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency D · 69 dB).
On the EU market since May 2021; the earliest production week registered is 20/2020.
How it compares in its sizes
We compared each size with all other summer tyres of the same size and class in EPREL (138 sizes had at least four rivals). A size scores when its label is at least as good as 75% of them.
Strongest point: wet grip.
What the label means on the road (195/65R15)
Example: the 195/65R15 size, compared with the 947 other summer tyres registered in this size.
Wet braking from 80 km/h
≈37 m with class B, against ≈41 m for the most common class in this size (C).
Fuel efficiency
Class C, the most common class in this size: no difference to the typical tyre.
Rolling noise
69 dB against a median of 71 dB in this size (2 dB quieter).
Estimates from the class ranges in Regulation (EU) 2020/740. A label class is a range, so a real tyre can sit anywhere inside it. Every 3 dB doubles the sound energy.
All 138 sizes
The small figure under each class is the share of same-size, same-season tyres this size matches or beats (“–” when fewer than five tyres share the size).
