Hyundai selects Nexen tire for OE fitment on Nexo hydrogen SUV

Hyundai selects Nexen Tire for OEM fitment on Nexo hydrogen SUV.

Nexen Tire has announced that its premium comfort tire, N’Fera Supreme S, has been selected as original equipment (OE) for Hyundai Motor Company’s next-generation hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), the Nexo.

This marks the first full model change for the Nexo in seven years. The model now features an upgraded hydrogen powertrain with a driving range exceeding 700km per charge, and focuses on an enhanced quiet ride. In line with these characteristics, the N’Fera Supreme S was chosen to optimize noise reduction, high load capacity and driving stability.

Designed for hydrogen-powered SUVs, the tire reportedly delivers durability and responsive handling and incorporates an AI-enhanced load distribution structure as well as high-rigidity sidewalls to ensure stable grip and steering. It also features level-keeping technology, which Nexen says maintains consistent performance even after 50% tread wear.

The aerodynamic tread design aims to reduce air drag and rolling resistance, helping to improve overall fuel economy while supporting strong braking and high-speed handling performance.

To complement the Nexo’s quiet hydrogen drivetrain, the tire integrates a suite of noise-reduction technologies, including a noise reduction system (NRS) that uses sound-absorbing materials inside the tire cavity to minimize in-vehicle noise, and AI-based tread pattern optimization, developed through data analysis, to reduce road noise in diverse driving conditions.

“This latest supply agreement highlights Nexen Tire’s technological leadership in the next generation of eco-friendly mobility,” said John Bosco (Hyeon Suk) Kim, CEO of Nexen Tire. ”We will continue to broaden our global OE partnerships by delivering optimized tire solutions for all powertrains – hydrogen fuel cell, electric, hybrid and internal combustion alike.”

In related news, Pirelli has revealed the Scorpion All Season SF3, an all-season tire designed specifically for SUVs, expanding the technical features of the Cinturato All Season SF3. Read the full story here
