Vehicle model
Yangwang Gamme Yangwang - véhicules particuliers
On the passenger-vehicle side, Yangwang offers the U9, an all-electric supercar unveiled in 2023 and launched in 2024, as well as the U7, a large luxury sedan (plug-in hybrid and electric) introduced in 2025. The U9 delivers supercar performance (a claimed 0 to 100 km/h acceleration of around 2 seconds) and serves as a technology showcase, with extreme versions targeting very high top speeds. The U7 targets buyers of large prestige sedans, combining comfort, range, and refinement. These vehicles embody Yangwang's ambition to rival high-end European brands. They are fitted with large wheel diameters and performance tires. Not sold in Quebec, they primarily showcase BYD's expertise; local winter use would require suitable approved winter tires.

Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
Les Yangwang sont de gros véhicules lourds chaussés en grand diamètre : le VUS U8 reçoit d'origine des pneus de type 275/50R22 (jante de 22 pouces), avec une variante 275/60R20 en 20 pouces; les versions allongées et les berlines peuvent monter jusqu'en 22 ou 23 pouces. Vu la masse et le couple instantané des motorisations électriques, l'indice de charge et de vitesse des pneus est crucial. Comme ces véhicules ne sont pas vendus au Québec, les dimensions précises restent indicatives; pour tout véhicule électrifié roulant l'hiver ici, des pneus d'hiver homologués (pictogramme montagne/flocon) adaptés à la charge sont essentiels, idéalement montés sur un second train de jantes pour préserver les grandes jantes d'origine.
