Nexen tyres fitted to Hyundai’s all new Nexo model
Nexen Tire has confirmed that its N’Fera Supreme S’ premium comfort tyre has been selected as original equipment (OE) for Hyundai’s next generation hydrogen fuel cell electric SUV vehicle, the all new Nexo. Which has been purpose built with AI-driven design for ultimate quietness, durability and stability.

The all new Nexo, the first model change for seven years features an upgraded hydrogen powertrain with a driving range exceeding 700 kilometres per charge, an enhanced quiet ride and a sustainability focused interior and exterior design. Other important features include optimal performance in noise reduction, high load capacity and driving stability.

The tyre has also been specifically engineered for high performance hydrogen powered SUVs and incorporates AI enhanced load distribution structure alongside high rigidity sidewalls for stable grip and steering; Plus ‘Level Keeping Technology’ to maintain consistent performance even with 50 per cent tread wear.

Whilst its aerodynamic design effectively reduces both air-drag and rolling resistance to improve overall fuel economy while supporting strong braking and high-speed handling performance.

Finally, to complement the Nexo’s quiet hydrogen drivetrain, the N’Fera Supreme S integrates a suite of noise reduction technologies including a noise reduction system (NRS) which uses sound-absorbing materials inside the tyre cavity to minimise in-vehicle noise and AI based tread pattern optimization that reduces road noise under diverse driving conditions.

This latest supply agreement highlights our technological leadership in the next generation of eco-friendly mobility, and we will continue to broaden our global OE partnerships by delivering optimised tyre solutions for all powertrains including hydrogen fuel cell, electric, hybrid and internal combustion.

John Bosco (Hyeon-Suk) Kim, CEO of Nexen Tire
