Sportequipe Gamme Sportequipe - véhicules particuliers
Sportequipe focuses almost exclusively on SUVs rather than conventional sedans or compacts; the notion of "passenger vehicles" therefore covers the daily and family use of this range of sport and lifestyle SUVs. Designed for customers who play sports or travel, these vehicles emphasize a comfortable cabin, full standard equipment, and bold styling inherited from the brand's sporting inspiration (its name derives from the Ferrari Challenge). Launched in 2022 and finished in Italy on Chery underpinnings, the lineup aims for accessible premium positioning. For driving in Quebec, these vehicles require dedicated winter tires in the cold season; tire sizes and wheel diameters match the standards of compact-to-mid-size SUVs. No official North American distribution exists to date: check the original fitment on the vehicle's placard.

Les VUS Sportequipe (5, 6, 7, 8) sont des véhicules compacts à intermédiaires utilisant des montes de pneus et des diamètres de jantes typiques de ce segment, généralement de 17 à 19 pouces selon la finition. L'entraxe (bolt pattern) suit les standards courants des VUS de cette taille, souvent à cinq trous. Comme pour tout véhicule circulant au Québec, des pneus d'hiver dédiés sont obligatoires en saison froide et fortement recommandés pour ces VUS relativement lourds, notamment la version hybride rechargeable. Faute de chiffres officiels confirmés pour le marché nord-américain, validez toujours la dimension exacte inscrite sur la plaque du véhicule avant de choisir pneus ou jantes.
