Detailed head-to-head comparison based on actual test results
When it comes to the comparison of the Nexen N fera Sport and the Continental PremiumContact 7, it's evident that they have their strengths and weaknesses.
We rated the Nexen N fera Sport at 67%. It's an Ultra High Performance (UHP) type tyre, made in Czech Republic. It was originally used as the first equipment in the BMW 2-Series Active Tourer. Its performance can be lauded, as it had a showing of 14th out of 50 in the Autobild test. Notably, the tyre exhibits good aquaplaning reserves, short braking distances, and a lower rolling resistance.
However, the Nexen N fera Sport was under-criticized for understeering handling behavior. Moreover, it only demonstrated an average mileage. Despite the critiques, the tyre's strengths in dry braking and exterior noise levels remain commendable. ACE rated the tyre as 9 out of 10 on their test.
On the other hand, Continental offers the PremiumContact 7, which was rated at a whopping 97%. This touring tyre is made in France, Slovakia, Germany and Czech Republic. It's known for rolling off the production line with no prior first equipment.
In comparison to the Nexen N fera Sport, the Continental PremiumContact 7 clinched the 5th position in the Autobild competition out of 50 tyres. It particularly stood out in aquaplaning - longitudinal, rolling resistance, wet braking, wet handling, as well as dry braking.
The tyre outperformed many others in the ACE test, managing to secure the 2nd position out of 10. It came with the drawbacks of an increased price. However, considering the benefits it offers, including impressive handling properties, precise steering behavior, high mileage, and cost-efficiency, it's apparent why this tyre is widely appreciated.
To conclude, the PremiumContact 7 is generally a superior tyre than the N fera Sport, particularly in terms of overall performance in multiple tests. Nevertheless, for those looking for a quieter, more affordable tyre, with shorter dry braking distances, the Nexen N fera Sport can be an ideal choice.
