Every car needs tires. Nexen is a manufacturer of rubber for vehicles from Korea. Today, this brand is rapidly gaining its popularity among motorists in Russia. All this is due to good quality and reasonable price.
Brand history
Nexen (Korea) is a company established in 1942. It all started with the release of tires only for trucks. The first rubber for cars left the manufacturer's factories only in 1956. But all this time the company released products exclusively to the domestic market. In 1972, Nexen finally entered the world market.
The concern has several plants. They are located not only in Korea, but also in China. In more than 120 countries of the world, you can find Nexen tires. And the total annual sales of the company is 600 million US dollars.
Why choose Nexen?
Today, Nexen tires are very popular. The manufacturer offers a full range of winter, summer and all-season models. High quality of goods is confirmed by special certificates of conformity. Yes, and numerous positive reviews of motorists say this.
Nexen is an inexpensive, but good rubber that is made from real rubber with the addition of various components. This allows the tires to be as wear-resistant as possible.
Specialists working in the company create wheels with a symmetrical pattern. This allows you to steadily drive the car, even if it develops high speed. When creating the Nexen tire, the manufacturer pays great attention to its low noise level when moving the car. Many car owners claim that driving an “iron horse” shod with such rubber is much easier and more comfortable even in bad weather or ice.
All enterprises of the company, which are located in Korea and China, are equipped with new automated production systems and computer simulation tools. That is what allows you to more closely monitor the quality of products at each stage of production and make tires even better.
Products
The concern produces not only Nexen tires. The manufacturer makes Roadstone tires. They are absolutely identical. The only difference is that this rubber is not supplied for the initial configuration of cars. It can be purchased exclusively in the secondary market.
Nexen products are well known in the Russian market. Today it occupies a high position in the ranking of popularity among car owners. At the same time, such distinctive indicators of these products are noted: resistance to heating, good braking at any speed, high wear resistance, excellent traction.
Popular models among consumers
There is a rating of the most popular tires in Russia. Some models of Nexen rubber are included in it:
- The Classe Premiere 661 summer tire is a tire with excellent stability even at speeds up to 240 km / h. A model was created specifically for sedans of medium and compact sizes. The main feature of the tire is absolute noiselessness, which makes any ride as comfortable as possible.
- The all-weather Classe Premiere 662 tire is designed for quiet driving and comfortable braking. All this is possible thanks to the unique asymmetric tread pattern. In winter, this tire can become a full replacement for winter tires. However, in Russia, because of unpredictable and abrupt climatic changes, it is better not to use it all year round. This model performs best at low temperatures.
- Winter Winguard SUV is designed specifically for use on urban SUVs and crossovers. This is the most popular tire among the winter tire category.
In some parameters, Nexen tires are not inferior to the famous French Michelin tires. True, they cost much less than the products of European brands.
