On May 11, Nexen Tire announced that it will be the exclusive tire supplier for the "Nexen N2 Class" and "Nexen N3 Class" of the 2026 Hyundai N Festival.

Nexen Tire held a supply agreement ceremony with Hyundai Motor Company at the opening event of the competition, which took place on May 9 at Everland Speedway in Yongin. The event was attended by Junwoo Park, Executive Director of Hyundai Motor Company N Management Office, and Seongwook Jeon, Head of OE Korea Sales Division at Nexen Tire.

Through this agreement, Nexen Tire will supply tires to a total of three classes, including the exclusive supply for the N2 and N3 classes and supply for the "Gran Turismo eN1 Class."

Notably, the N3 class is a newly added segment for which Nexen Tire has signed an exclusive supply contract this year. Nexen Tire has been the exclusive supplier for the N2 class for four consecutive years since 2023, and has participated as a supplier for the eN1 class since 2024.

The product supplied is the "N'Fera SUR4G Motorsport." This specialized tire is designed with optimized compound performance to suit circuit driving characteristics, ensuring stable grip and durability even during rapid acceleration and high-speed cornering.

The Hyundai N Festival, which began in 2019, is the largest one-make motorsports event in Korea, marking its 8th year in 2026. It consists of six rounds annually, and last year, more than 50,000 spectators visited the venue, reflecting its strong popularity.

A Nexen Tire representative stated, "We are pleased to expand our exclusive supply to the N3 class, increasing opportunities to connect our brand with drivers and fans," adding, "Based on our proven technology on site, we will continue to provide the best driving experience."
