Nexen formally launches tire products in the country
With smarter, savvier Filipino motorists plying the roads of tomorrow, Nexen is their brand of choice.
And recently the Korean tire brand formally launched its product line here in the
High performance at the best price
In his speech, Jaycoben Reyes, general manager of Macro Auto Corp., the distributors of Nexen in the country, said that Filipino motorists today do not spare much thought on their tires. “They simply install it in their vehicles, and that’s the end of the story.”
With Nexen’s entry to the market, things are bound to change. It brings high performance tires at the best price point. Thus, it places itself in the middle of a big niche in a market composed essentially of only two groups. One group settles for cheap, but low quality tires that don’t last long, while the other buys good quality at similarly upscale prices.
Nexen brings with it an impressive resume dating back to several decades. Nexen now makes tires for 120 countries. It has passed the strictest standards of quality that the unforgiving European tire industry demands for years now. This year, Nexen will sponsor Prodrift,
In case of the Philippine market, corporate and rental car companies are starting to take notice of their products. This is because Nexen has proven that their tires perform comparable to, and sometimes even better, than some of their more expensive counterparts.
Besides simply producing tires, Nexen provides excellent customer service as well, one that “anticipates and addresses every customer’s concerns.”
John Paul Reyes, president of Macro Auto Corp., said that the customers of tomorrow will expect nothing less.
“These motorists will expect and demand better performance from their tires that answer to their safety needs, while giving the best value for their money. And these people will know how to get them. Technological advances have enabled motorists to become more interconnected to each other, sharing knowledge not commonly found before,” he explained.
Products they believe in
To Nexen, every single model that they offer is a product that they themselves believe in. To this end, the brand is constantly bringing innovation on the road. For one, they have breakthrough tires that produce the lowest noise levels without sacrificing quality or performance.
So what do Nexen-quality tires mean? We can start with the N3000’s unique arrow center rib design that guarantees high speed driving performance. Their Roadian Series meanwhile supplies high performance driving for SUVs.
Nexen’s latest products are the High Performance CP641 and the Ultra High Performance N6000. Long mileage performance and quiet driving, are the hallmarks of the CP641. The N6000 meanwhile, feature a shoulder design that greatly improves cornering stability. Both tires are specially-designed to prevent hydroplaning, or the loss of steering or braking control in wet roads.
For Nexen, there’s yet another, much bigger goal ahead: changing people’s perception of Korean-made products. They’re eager to show Filipinos that the quality of Korean brands will be worthy of trust.
