Geely has revealed the exterior and interior of an electric car priced at Emgrand. The Chinese brand has shared official photos of the Xingyuan city car of the Geometry sub-brand. The model’s main competitor will be the BYD Dolphin for 100 thousand yuan (24 thousand manat), meaning that the basic electric car will cost comparable to the top-end Geely Emgrand sedan. Judging by the photos from the Geometry press service, the target audience of the new product is considered to be women. Sales are expected to start in the fall.
The length/width/height of the Geometry Xingyuan are 4135/1805/1570 millimeters, respectively, the wheelbase is 2650 millimeters. The electric car has reverse grip handles, a practical unpainted body kit and LED optics; stamped 15-inch wheels are provided for the basic version. However, the interior does not look cheap: the options are quite “adult”!
The top version can be expected to feature perforated seats, a virtual instrument panel, a media system with a touchscreen, a multi-wheel, contour lighting and a two-tone body paint job. This electric car will receive a 116-horsepower engine, and a 79-horsepower engine will be provided for the initial configuration. The capacity and chemical composition of the battery are not specified, but the expected range is up to 500 kilometers (CLTC). And the “budget” can also surprise with an independent rear suspension.
