The Nexen N Fera Sport ended its evaluation with a rank of 17 out of 20 participants, obtaining a 'Satisfactory' rating. This tire caught attention for its short braking distances on dry surfaces and its quiet rolling noise, alongside a reasonable price point.

satisfactory
Ranked #8 of 17

Achieving an 8th place finish out of 17 tire models tested, the Nexen N Fera Sport was awarded a final rating of "Satisfactory" by testers. The tire was particularly praised for its excellent performance on dry roads, showcasing precise handling and consistently good grip levels. However, it faced criticism for its somewhat higher wear rate and increased fuel consumption. A notable drawback mentioned was its weaknesses when driving on wet surfaces, including earlier than expected loss of grip in wet corners and a general underperformance in wet conditions, which contributed to its satisfactory rating. Despite these drawbacks, the tire's performance in noise levels was inconspicuous, but it was among the less favorable in terms of fuel consumption and wear, indicating a shorter projected lifespan than some competitors.
