The Nexen N'FERA Sport is a summer tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 158 sizes (239 registrations including load and speed variants), for 16″ to 22″ rims.

Wet grip is rated A–C depending on size, fuel efficiency A–D and external rolling noise 68–75 dB.

The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 235/60 R20 (Wet grip A · Fuel efficiency A · 69 dB), the weakest 225/60 R18 (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency B · 72 dB).

What the label means on the road (205/55R16)

Example: the 205/55R16 size, compared with the 1,043 other summer tyres registered in this size.

Wet braking from 80 km/h

≈34 m with class A, against ≈37 m for the most common class in this size (B).

Fuel efficiency

Class B vs the typical C: ≈0.16 L/100 km less, about 25 litres less over 15,000 km for a 1,500 kg car.

Rolling noise

71 dB against a median of 71 dB in this size.

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 158 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).

Same label values, different brand

These tyres have exactly the same label values as the Nexen N'FERA Sport in most of the sizes they share, and both are registered in EPREL by the same manufacturer. Identical labels do not prove two tyres are the same: classes are broad. But consistent matches across many sizes point to a shared production family.

Questions

Is the Nexen N'FERA Sport a quiet tyre?

Its declared rolling noise ranges from 68 dB to 75 dB (median 72 dB). In 33% of the sizes we could compare, it is at least as quiet as three quarters of same-size rivals.

How good is the Nexen N'FERA Sport in the wet?

Its wet grip class is A–C. In 85% of compared sizes that is at least as good as three quarters of same-size rivals.

Is the Nexen N'FERA Sport suitable for snow?

No size carries the 3PMSF symbol, so it is not certified for severe snow. In countries with winter tyre rules it does not count as a winter tyre.

When was the Nexen N'FERA Sport launched?

It has been on the EU market since September 2020. The earliest production week in its registrations is 30/2020; the DOT code on the sidewall shows the week and year of your tyre.
