Vehicle model
VGV Gamme VGV - utilitaires ou VUS
The SUV and utility range forms the core of VGV's offering. It is built around midsize crossovers such as the U70, unveiled at the brand's launch in 2019, and the U75 Plus, as well as the VX7 lifestyle pickup derived from the U75 Plus. These vehicles target families and young urban buyers looking for space (up to seven seats on the U70) and versatility at an accessible price. The segment covers everyday, family, and recreational uses (camping, outdoors), with affordable positioning against established brands. These are large vehicles: in Quebec, they require a set of winter tires suited to their weight to ensure traction and braking on snow and ice, in accordance with the provincial requirement. Wheels generally fall within the 17- to 19-inch range typical of the segment; confirm the exact bolt pattern before any wheel or tire purchase.

Tire and wheel compatibility
Les VUS et pick-up VGV (U70, U75 Plus, VX7) sont des véhicules intermédiaires à grands gabarits qui utilisent généralement des jantes de 17 à 19 pouces, format courant sur ce segment. L'entraxe (bolt pattern) typique des crossovers de cette taille tourne souvent autour de 5 trous, mais il faut toujours valider la cote exacte sur le véhicule avant l'achat. Au Québec, les pneus d'hiver sont obligatoires du 1er décembre au 15 mars : pour un VUS familial de ce poids, un jeu de pneus d'hiver bien dimensionnés est essentiel pour la traction et le freinage. En cas de pièces difficiles à trouver, privilégier des dimensions standard équivalentes facilite l'approvisionnement.
