Geely Auto Group officially launched its new battery electric SUV, the GEELY EX5, in Hong Kong on December 5, 2024, during the International MotorXpo Hong Kong (IMXpo).
The GEELY EX5 was introduced in China earlier this year in August under the name Galaxy E5. It is the first electric SUV in Geely’s Galaxy series, built on the Geely Galaxy Electric Architecture (GEA) platform. The vehicle is designed aimed at meeting demand for compact electric SUVs. The model gained a positive response amassing over 50,000 deliveries countrywide.
The new EV is equipped “11-in-1 intelligent electric drive system.” This system combines components such as the motor, electronic control, and decelerator into a compact design, reducing the vehicle’s center of gravity and improving handling, particularly in cornering and high-speed driving.
In Hong Kong, Zhilian Zhili New Energy Auto Service (Hong Kong) Limited has been appointed as the official onlooker for the GEELY EX5. This partnership includes sales and after-sales services for local customers. Deliveries in Hong Kong are scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2025.
The GEELY EX5 is priced between HK$200,000 and HK$240,000 and is aimed at urban consumers interested in electric vehicles. Geely has also opened its first showroom in Hong Kong on Gloucester Road, Wan Chai, featuring a dedicated delivery area. Multiple electric models will be showcased, with plans to make the location a center for new energy vehicles.
Geely Auto Group, a subsidiary of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, has been expanding globally, focusing on markets along the “One Belt One Road” initiative. The company operates over 600 sales points worldwide and plans to achieve overseas sales of 600,000 vehicles by 2025.
