The Nexen N Fera Primus summer tyre has been subjected to various tests, with their results highlighting both strengths and weaknesses across different tyre dimensions. Most notably, its performance under wet conditions has received considerable praise. The tyre demonstrates exceptional aquaplaning resistance, secure handling on wet surfaces, and short braking distances in the rain. These attributes indicate the tyre's reliable performance during inclement weather, ensuring driver safety and control.
On the downside, the Nexen N Fera Primus has some drawbacks. Regardless of the tyre dimension tested, there are concerns regarding its dry handling capabilities, with an inclination towards understeer being noted. This could potentially impact the overall driving experience, particularly in situations that demand swift and precise handling adjustments. Moreover, both tests have remarked on the tyre's limited lifespan and reduced economic value due to an increased rolling resistance. Such factors could influence long-term ownership costs, making it a consideration for potential buyers.
Additionally, one of the test results flagged a delayed steering response, which could further affect the tyre's agility and the driver's confidence in dynamically demanding situations.
Despite these challenges, the tyre's competitive pricing structure is a recurring positive point. Its cost-effectiveness, coupled with the superior wet performance qualities, makes the Nexen N Fera Primus an appealing option for drivers looking to balance price with performance, especially in regions where rainy conditions are prevalent.
In summation, the Nexen N Fera Primus presents a mixed bag of qualities. It shines in terms of wet weather performance, offering safety and control when it's most needed, but faces some compromises in dry handling, lifespan, and energy efficiency. Potential buyers would need to weigh these aspects against the tyre's affordability to determine its suitability for their needs.
Nexen N Fera Primus is made in 38 sizes, starting from 185/65 R15 up to 235/50 R19.
