History
History of the Forthing Gamme Forthing - véhicules particuliers
Forthing's passenger-vehicle segment groups together the brand's sedans and minivans, heirs to its tradition of accessible family models. It includes sedans such as the S series and the Xinghai S7, as well as minivans like the Yacht (also called the U-Tour) and the Lingzhi series, prized for passenger transport and light commercial uses. These vehicles target large families, fleets, and emerging markets looking for interior room at a managed cost. On the tire and wheel side, the sedans generally receive 16- to 18-inch wheels and the minivans load-oriented fitments; in Quebec, 3PMSF-certified winter tires remain indispensable, and load indices must be respected, especially on minivans often loaded with passengers or cargo.
Technology
Technologies, engines and platforms
Turbocharged 1.5 and 1.6 L gasoline four-cylinders (about 122 to 197 hp depending on the model), with electric versions on certain sedans. Automatic or continuously variable transmissions, Dongfeng platforms, and assistance and connectivity equipment depending on trim.

Tire and wheel compatibility
Les VUS et multisegments Forthing, tels les T5 EVO et Taikon 5, utilisent des montes typiques du segment compact à intermédiaire : jantes de 18 et 19 pouces, avec des pneus de section moyenne autour de 235 mm (par exemple 235/60 R18 et 235/55 R19). L'entraxe le plus courant sur ce type de VUS chinois est 5x114,3 mm, mais il faut toujours confirmer le boulonnage et l'alésage exacts du modèle. Au Québec, des pneus d'hiver homologués 3PMSF sont essentiels et obligatoires; un second train monté sur jantes d'acier ou d'alliage de 17 à 18 pouces simplifie le changement saisonnier. Vérifiez l'indice de charge et de vitesse, surtout sur les versions électriques plus lourdes.
