Nexen Tire’s ultra high performance (UHP) tire, the N8000, was highly rated for its quality in a test conducted by a leading magazine in Europe. Autobild Sportcars, a German auto magazine, labeled the tire as “Very recommendable” (Autobild Vorbildlich) following the test.

As the sister publication to Autobild, which is cited by many as one of the most prestigious auto magazines in the world along with ADAC, Autobild Sportcars regularly tests ultra high performance products, especially sport cars.

This test involved the products from the top 8 global brands, including Nexen’s, which were assessed on both wet and dry surfaces for various performance indicators, including handling, braking, and noise. The N8000, thanks to its mix of a short braking distance, side stiffness, quietness and ride comfort, was rated “Very recommendable” with a special note on its exceptional stability on wet roads.

The N8000 is the asymmetric UHP tire launched by Nexen to meet the needs of high speed drivers, featuring unparalleled maneuverability and responsiveness. “These test results are testament to Nexen's improved product quality and technological capability,” said Han Hyun-min, Vice President, Research and Development. “Nexen will devote greater R&D effort to becoming a leading global brand with higher competitiveness.”

Having been awarded a prize at the IF Design Awards, one of the top three awards ceremonies of its kind in the world, right after its launch, the N8000 has now had both its performance and design recognized in the global market with the release of Autobild Sportcars’ test results.

Last year, Consumer Reports, a leading U.S. consumer magazine, and Auto Express, the largest auto magazine in the UK, also rated CP 672 and N’blue HD, respectively, highly for its exceptional quality after as shown through their tests. With the ability, now proven, to tailor its tires to different road conditions in different markets, Nexen will continue to expand its presence across the globe.
