For drivers seeking a thorough comparison of two revered summer tyres, the Laufenn S Fit EQ and the Nexen N fera Sport, you have come to the right place. Packed with features intended to enhance your summer driving experience, both tyres deliver a unique set of strengths and weaknesses.
Let’s start with the Laufenn S Fit EQ which, according to our rating system, scores 46%. Notably, this summer tyre excels in "Dry Handling," as evidenced by its 7th position in GTÜ tyre tests. Despite a low overall position compared with other tyres, this specific strength shouldn't be underestimated as it can yield a safer and more comfortable summer drive.
On the other hand, the Nexen N fera Sport comes off as a stronger competitor, with our site giving it an overall rating of 59%. This high-performance tyre was manufactured in Czech Republic and fits perfectly with BMW's 2-series Active Tourer as a first equipment. Holding the 1st position in the GTÜ test and 7th place in the Autobild test among 50 tyres, the Nexen N fera Sport shines especially in "Dry Braking," "Dry Handling," "Exterior Noise," "Wet Circle Cornering," and "Wet Handling" categories. Furthermore, it offers superior performance in "Aquaplaning- longitudal," a crucial feature for wet conditions encountered during the summer months.
Both manufactured by trusted brands, Laufenn and Nexen, the Laufenn S Fit EQ and Nexen N fera Sport emerged as summer tyres tailored to specific needs, with the latter showing better results in mutual test positions. However, as no single tyre fits all requirements, drivers's choice ultimately depends upon personal preference, driving conditions and vehicle type.
The Laufenn S Fit EQ, despite its lower position in the tests, stands out with remarkable dry handling prowess, making it a feasible choice for regions with relatively less wet weather. Meanwhile, the Nexen N fera Sport shines in multiple parameters and stands well above its competition, providing added assurance for those who brave often unpredictable summer downpours.
Importantly, we recommend staying updated on the newest models that might replace the current tyres. As of now, both Laufenn S Fit EQ and Nexen N fera Sport haven't been replaced with newer tyres.
In summary, while both these summer tyres offer their unique merits, the Nexen N fera Sport's impressive test results, first equipment fit for BMW 2-series Active Tourer, and our rating percentage make it our recommend choice for those seeking top-notch performance during summer months.
