The Geely EX5, the latest Chinese-made electric SUV to enter the market, is the first vehicle from the Geely Auto brand since the small MK sedan over a decade ago.
It competes with other electric SUVs like BYD Atto 3, Sealion 7, Kia EV5, Leapmotor C10, Xpeng G6, and Tesla Model Y.
The EX5 is front-wheel drive and powered by a 160kW electric motor with a 60.2kWh battery, offering two variants: Complete and Inspire.
Expected to be priced under $50,000, leaked figures suggest a range starting at $43,490.
The interior features plush faux leather seats, a 15.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and impressive massage functions.
Driving modes include Eco, Comfort, and Sport, with regenerative braking options but no one-pedal driving mode.
The local suspension tuning provides a soft and comfortable ride, ideal for urban driving, yet lacking dynamism on twisty roads.
Safety features include adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, driver attention monitoring, and traffic sign recognition.
The Geely EX5 offers two trim levels—Complete and Inspire—each with various equipment highlights and advanced safety technologies.
While it competes with similar electric SUVs, the EX5 stands out for its efficiency, comfort, and competitive pricing, making it a viable option in the market.
