Ranked #11 of 11
Finishing 11th out of 11 competitors, the Nexen N fera Sport tyre faced a challenging evaluation but managed to secure a final rating of 'Good'. Testers appreciated its proficient braking on wet surfaces and its respectable performance against aquaplaning. Moreover, the tyre distinguished itself with its quiet noise levels during pass-by. However, it displayed significant drawbacks, including a very sluggish response to steering and proneness to understeer when wet. Additionally, on dry surfaces, the tyre was criticized for its long braking distances and a lack of dynamic handling. Despite these mixed results, there were no disciplines in which the tyre was identified as the absolute best, nor were there properties for which it finished last explicitly listed.

Ranked #17 of 20
The Nexen N Fera Sport ended its evaluation with a rank of 17 out of 20 participants, obtaining a 'Satisfactory' rating. This tire caught attention for its short braking distances on dry surfaces and its quiet rolling noise, alongside a reasonable price point. However, its performance was marked by a tendency towards understeer in handling and an only average mileage, which could deter some users seeking long-term durability and control in varied conditions. Despite these aspects, it managed to provide a balanced mixture of benefits and drawbacks, positioning itself as a competent, but not top-tier, choice within its competition field.

Ranked #9 of 11
The Nexen N Fera Sport, among a group of contenders, secured the 9th position out of 11 in its evaluation, showcasing a performance that earned it a 'Satisfactory' overall rating. Despite the competitive nature of the test and the wide array of capabilities assessed across different makes and models, specific feedback on disciplines where the Nexen N Fera Sport excelled or underperformed was not highlighted. Consequently, the tire didn't stand out as the absolute best in any specific category, nor was it noted as the worst in any particular aspect. This outcome suggests a balanced, though not top-tier, performance across the board, which was adequately recognized with its final assessment.

Ranked #8 of 17
Achieving an 8th place finish out of 17 tire models tested, the Nexen N Fera Sport was awarded a final rating of "Satisfactory" by testers. The tire was particularly praised for its excellent performance on dry roads, showcasing precise handling and consistently good grip levels. However, it faced criticism for its somewhat higher wear rate and increased fuel consumption. A notable drawback mentioned was its weaknesses when driving on wet surfaces, including earlier than expected loss of grip in wet corners and a general underperformance in wet conditions, which contributed to its satisfactory rating. Despite these drawbacks, the tire's performance in noise levels was inconspicuous, but it was among the less favorable in terms of fuel consumption and wear, indicating a shorter projected lifespan than some competitors.
