Vehicle model
Firefly Gamme Firefly - utilitaires ou VUS
Firefly currently focuses on a compact electric city car and does not offer a true SUV or a distinct utility lineup. The "Firefly range - utility vehicles or SUVs" therefore corresponds, in practice, to the versatile use of the brand's small hatchback model rather than to dedicated SUV models. This five-door electric hatchback relies on a surprisingly spacious cabin for its four-meter length and a generous front trunk (frunk), giving it a degree of urban and family versatility. No larger crossover-type vehicle has been confirmed to date. In Quebec, this compact format is well suited to city and suburban driving, but the brand's absence from the North American market and the need for approved winter tires (in 17 or 18 inches depending on the fitment) remain key points to consider for winter use.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Le modèle Firefly est une citadine électrique chaussée de jantes de 18 pouces avec des pneus 215/50 R18 d'origine, un format courant facile à trouver. Comme toute compacte, elle privilégie des diamètres de jante moyens (autour de 17 à 18 pouces) et des pneus relativement étroits favorisant l'autonomie. Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver homologués sont obligatoires : pour une électrique lourde et silencieuse, on choisira un pneu hiver adapté à la charge et au couple instantané, parfois en montage plus petit (ex. 17 pouces) avec flanc plus haut pour le confort et la neige. Faute de présence locale de la marque, validez toujours la dimension exacte sur l'étiquette de la portière. Les chiffres précis peuvent varier selon les versions.
