The global auto industry is racing towards innovation, and Geely places itself at the forefront with the EX5—a fully electric SUV powered by pioneering battery technology and smart features for modern drivers. Entering new markets with style, performance, and value, the EX5 challenges established players and brings new tech for urbanites, families, and adventure seekers alike.​

Bold Design and Modern Comfort

  • Geely EX5 features sleek lines, a bold front with geometric LED headlights, and a dynamic grille that balances aesthetics with aerodynamics.

  • Stance is accentuated by sculpted sides, sweeping rear lights, and practical roof rails for family and adventure functionality.

  • Cabin offers spacious seating for five, with memory seats, panoramic glass roof, and up to 256 ambient lighting moods for customized comfort.

  • Smart access includes app-based unlock, remote climate control, and wireless charging for digital devices.

Breakthrough Electric Powertrain

  • The heart of the EX5 is a single advanced electric motor, delivering up to 218 hp (160 kW) and 320 Nm of torque for swift acceleration and confident highway overtaking.

  • DC fast charging technology allows a jump from 30% to 80% charge in just 20 minutes, making long commutes and road trips convenient.​

  • Buyers choose between two battery options: 49.5 kWh for up to 440 km of range or an enhanced 60.2 kWh pack stretching up to 530 km (WLTP).

  • Every EX5 includes "Vehicle-to-Load" (V2L)—the ability to power household appliances directly from your ride, opening new horizons for campers and mobile work.​

New Safety Standards

  • Six airbags and a reinforced cell-to-body chassis structure ensure maximum protection for all occupants.

  • Suite of active safety features: adaptive cruise control with traffic recognition, lane keep assist, forward collision warning, tire pressure monitoring, electronic stability control, and automatic emergency braking.

  • ISOFIX child seat anchors, hill hold assist, and anti-roll protection further tailor the EX5 for family safety and peace of mind.

  • Every EX5 has earned top scores in regional and European crash tests, confirming its advanced build and engineering reliability.​

Smart Interior & Tech

  • A minimalist floating dashboard houses a huge 15-inch touchscreen interface with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and customizable widgets.

  • Separate climate console gives tactile control, while rear entertainment screens (in higher trims) cater to backseat passengers.​

  • Smart assistant responds to natural voice commands for navigation, media, and car settings.

  • Modular cargo space and folding rear seats maximize utility for packing gear, strollers, or groceries.

Electric SUV Performance

  • The EX5 sprints from 0-100 km/h in just 6.9 seconds—standing among the fastest in its class.

  • Top speed is rated at 175 km/h, adequate for GCC highways and intercity drives.

  • Multi-mode driving (Eco/Sport/Normal) lets owners optimize performance or extend range on demand.

  • Battery preconditioning and an integrated heat pump assure optimal range and efficiency in both hot and cold climates.

  • Operating cost is drastically reduced compared to ICE SUVs: no oil changes or exhaust maintenance—just routine brake checks and software updates.​
