NEXEN TIRE, a leading global tyre manufacturer, announced that it is supplying original equipment (OE) tyres for the Kia all-new Seltos in North America and Europe. Having previously supplied the N’PRIZ S and N’FERA AU7 for the Korean market in March, NEXEN TIRE has now extended its OE supply to North America and Europe.
NEXEN TIRE is supplying market-optimised products tailored to the road conditions and consumer characteristics of each region. For North America, the N’PRIZ S is supplied in a 16-inch fitment in the United States and Canada. Compatible with electric, hybrid, and internal combustion vehicles, the N’PRIZ S delivers excellent mileage performance and a quiet, comfortable ride.
For European markets including Germany, France, and the Netherlands, summer tyres are supplied across multiple fitments. The N’FERA Primus is fitted on 16 and 18 inch specifications, while the N’FERA Sport is fitted on 19 inch specifications. The N’FERA Primus is a premium tyre offering high-speed stability and wet braking performance, while the N’FERA Sport is an ultra- high-performance tyre that has demonstrated its excellence in major European tyre tests.
This supply further demonstrates NEXEN TIRE’s ability to deliver market-specific OE solutions for the same vehicle model across different regions. The company continues to expand its global OE portfolio across a wide range of vehicle segments, including mass-market SUVs and globally recognized premium brands.
“This OE supply for the Seltos goes beyond simply increasing volume, it demonstrates NEXEN TIRE’s ability to deliver products tailored to the specific road conditions and consumer needs of each market,” said John Bosco (Hyeon Suk) Kim, CEO of NEXEN TIRE. “We will continue to strengthen partnerships with global automakers and expand our market-optimised OE supply going forward.”
