About Nexen N'Fera AU7 235/40 R19 96W

The N'Fera AU7 is Nexen's ultra-high-performance all-season tyre, developed for sports cars, coupes, sedans and other passenger vehicles requiring confident road handling. The exact 235/40R19 96W XL specification has a 9.5-inch section width, 26.4-inch overall diameter, 9/32-inch tread depth and 8.0–9.5-inch approved rim range.

Tread Design and Handling

The N'Fera AU7 uses an asymmetric tread design with directional sipes and rigid shoulder blocks to support steering response and cornering stability. Open lateral grooves are designed to help improve water evacuation and resistance to hydroplaning.

Dry-Road Performance

The rigid shoulder areas and performance-oriented tread pattern are designed to provide stable contact during cornering and responsive steering during everyday and highway driving. The 235 mm width and low 40-series profile provide a sporty handling character compared with higher-profile touring tyres.

Wet-Road Traction

The tread's open lateral grooves and siping help move water away from the contact area, supporting wet-road traction and hydroplaning resistance. The tyre carries an AA UTQG traction grade. Actual wet braking performance depends on road conditions, tyre pressure, tread wear, vehicle condition and driving style.

All-Season Capability

The N'Fera AU7 is marketed as an all-season high-performance tyre. It is designed to provide usable performance across a broad range of normal road conditions, but it is not a dedicated winter tyre and does not carry the 3PMSF severe-snow symbol for this size.

Comfort and Noise

Nexen uses a five-variable-pitch tread arrangement intended to help control tread noise. The low-profile 40-series construction prioritizes handling response over the cushioning characteristics of a taller sidewall, so ride comfort will also depend strongly on the vehicle's suspension and road surface.

Load Capacity and Speed Rating

The 96W XL specification provides a maximum load capacity of 710 kg per tyre and a maximum rated speed of 270 km/h. The XL construction is intended for applications requiring greater load capacity than the corresponding standard-load configuration. Always follow the vehicle manufacturer's approved tyre size, load and speed requirements.

Who Should Consider This Tyre?

Nexen N'Fera AU7 235/40 R19 96W is suitable for drivers seeking a sporty all-season tyre with strong wet traction, responsive steering, high-speed stability and an XL construction for higher load capacity.
