Falken Ziex ZE001 Is OE on 2021 Nissan Rogue

Oct. 29, 2020

Sumitomo Rubber North America, Inc. will supply Ziex ZE001 all-season tires as original equipment on front-wheel-drive models of the 2021 Nissan Rogue crossover.

“Once again, we’re very proud to have been selected as a trusted tire supplier for Nissan’s ever-popular crossover, the Rogue,” says David Colletti, vice president of OE technical service and quality assurance for Falken. “We know the Rogue is an important vehicle to Nissan, and we believe our Ziex ZE001 all-season tire is the perfect fit for both the crossover and the needs of the Rogue’s drivers.”

The Ziex ZE001 A/S has four circumferential grooves to evacuate water and enhance hydroplane resistance and stability in wet conditions. The tire's chamfered tread block corners support even wear throughout the tire’s life, and a solid center rib provides handling response.

Nissan North America Inc. has redesigned the 2021 Rogue. It is powered by a 181-hp 2.5 liter inline four engine and available as either front or AWD with enhanced driving dynamics.

Falken previously served as OE supplier on the 2016-2018 Rogue.
