Vehicle model
Luxgen Gamme Luxgen - véhicules particuliers
Luxgen's passenger car lineup consists mainly of sedans, now removed from the catalog. It includes the S5 (a mid-size sedan launched in 2012) and the S3 (a subcompact sedan from 2016, discontinued in 2020), as well as the original Luxgen7 MPV (M7), the brand's first model. These cars targeted an urban clientele seeking a well-equipped, technological vehicle at an affordable price. Like the brand as a whole, they were marketed mainly in Taiwan and a few export markets, never reaching North America. These sedans typically ran 16- to 17-inch wheels. For winter use in Quebec, certified winter tires would be essential and legally required, but since these models are not distributed there, no local tire or wheel offering is dedicated to them.

Tire and wheel compatibility
Les Luxgen partagent souvent une base technique d'origine japonaise (Mitsubishi), ce qui implique généralement un entraxe de roues de type 5 trous courant sur les véhicules de ce calibre. Les VUS comme l'U6 et l'URX chaussent typiquement des jantes de 17 à 18 pouces, tandis que les modèles plus compacts (U5, S3) tournent autour de 16 à 17 pouces. Comme ces véhicules ne circulent pas au Québec, il n'existe pas d'offre locale dédiée; un propriétaire devrait s'en remettre aux équivalences de dimensions. Pour tout véhicule roulant l'hiver au Québec, des pneus d'hiver homologués (pictogramme montagne-flocon) demeurent obligatoires et essentiels à la traction sur glace et neige. Vérifier toujours les dimensions exactes sur la plaque du véhicule.
