Vehicle model
FAW Bestune T77
The Bestune T77 is a compact crossover SUV produced by FAW under the consumer Bestune brand. Shown as a concept (T-Concept) at the Beijing Auto Show in April 2018, it was launched in production form at the Guangzhou Auto Show in November of the same year. Targeting a young clientele, it stands out with dynamic styling, a tech-focused cabin and, on some versions, a holographic display. The T77 measures about 4,525 mm long with a 2,700 mm wheelbase, placing it in the urban compact crossover segment. A more powerful T77 Pro version was added to complete the lineup. The model is intended for the Chinese market and a few export markets, but it is not distributed in Canada. For winter use in Quebec, such a front-wheel-drive compact crossover would require approved winter tires, in a size to be confirmed on the vehicle's placard.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Faute de présence officielle au Canada, les dimensions de pneus et de jantes des FAW (Hongqi, Bestune) ne suivent pas de standard local établi, mais restent des formats métriques chinois courants. Les VUS compacts comme le Bestune T77 utilisent généralement des jantes de diamètre moyen (autour de 17 à 19 pouces selon la finition), tandis que les grandes berlines et VUS Hongqi adoptent des diamètres plus élevés. L'entraxe (bolt pattern) se situe dans les standards usuels des véhicules de tourisme. Pour tout véhicule de ce type circulant au Québec, des pneus d'hiver homologués sont obligatoires et essentiels; l'acheteur doit valider la dimension exacte inscrite sur la portière avant toute commande.
