    To arrive as the brand’s first dip in the NEV arena, the electrified crossover has the following dimensions:

    Overall length, width, height (in mm)

    4,615 x 1,901 x 1,670

    Wheelbase (in mm)

    2,750

    Seating capacity

    Five

    Among the three revealed offerings, it is only the Geely EX5 that dons the revised logo (six-window logo in a rectangular arrangement) sitting in the middle of the front fascia — along with the J-shaped daytime running lamps.

    Its flowing lines help reduce drag coefficient to 0.269 Cd — making it even more aerodynamic than its competitors in the segment.

    For its cabin, the Geely EX5 is equipped with modern cockpit amenities, which include two screens:

    • 10-inch instrument panel
    • 15.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system

    It has a thoughtful number of compartments placed under the center console and under the rear seats. Further, the front seats can lay flat back.

    Powering the Geely EX5 is an 11-in-1 electric motor that can deliver as much as:

    Maximum output (in hp)

    215

    Peak torque (in Nm)

    320

    This allows the front-wheel-drive vehicle to run 100 kilometers per hour (kph) in 6.9 seconds from standstill and reach a top speed of 175 kph.

    Moreover, the Geely EX5’s powertrain gets its juice from the 60.22 kilowatt-hour lithium iron phosphate battery that lets the vehicle cover up to 495 kilometers (based on New European Driving Cycle standards).

    The mill also offers three drive modes namely:

    • Eco
    • Normal
    • Sport

    Geely made the most out of the EX5’s engineering as the vehicle took advantage of the brand’s GEA platform and cell-to-body technology.

    GMP has yet to reveal the pricing for the Geely EX3 but has already started accepting pre-orders. Instead of paying P110,000 for the reservation fee, the vehicle can be pre-order with only P10,000. The offer is up until March 31, 2025.
