Vehicle model
Keyton Gamme Keyton - véhicules particuliers
Keyton's passenger vehicle segment is built mainly around family minivans (MPVs), including the EX80 launched in 2015. This compact three-row minivan (2+2+3 configuration, seven seats) measures about 4.4 m long and targets families and shuttle users looking for a modular cabin at a contained price. The MPV segment remains very popular in China and in the emerging markets where Keyton exports (Egypt, Philippines, Bolivia, Chile). These models bank on interior space and simplicity rather than luxury or driver-assistance features. None of these vehicles is offered in Quebec. For a minivan of equivalent size driven locally, certified 3PMSF winter tires mounted on small to medium diameter wheels would be necessary during the cold season.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Comme Keyton n'est pas distribuée au Québec, il n'existe pas de référence locale de montes pneumatiques. Ses véhicules étant surtout des minifourgonnettes, mini-camions et monospaces compacts, ils utilisent typiquement de petites jantes en acier (souvent 14 à 16 pouces) avec des pneus utilitaires à flanc relativement haut, parfois des classes renforcées (LT/Reinforced) pour le transport de charge. Sans fiche technique nord-américaine, les dimensions exactes, l'entraxe (bolt pattern) et le déport ne peuvent être confirmés. Pour tout véhicule comparable circulant au Québec, l'achat de pneus d'hiver homologués (pictogramme 3PMSF) demeure essentiel et obligatoire entre le 1er décembre et le 15 mars, qu'il s'agisse d'un usage particulier ou commercial.
