Vendée U is a French road cycling team established in 1991. The team is a national first-division (DN1) club team, acting as the development program for UCI ProTeam Team TotalEnergies.[1] Notable riders to have ridden for the team include Thomas Voeckler, Sylvain Chavanel, Jérôme Cousin, Bryan Coquard and Lilian Calmejane among others.

In 2021, after over 30 years, the team changed their colors from red and white to match the jerseys of Team TotalEnergies.[2]
