Can a Geely Emgrand Last for Fifteen Years?
2 Answers
Fifteen years might be a stretch. With proper maintenance and care, and assuming no major accidents, it can generally last up to ten years. Here’s some relevant information: Geely Emgrand: The Geely Emgrand (simply called Emgrand) is a sub-brand under the Geely parent brand. The new Geely Emgrand was launched on July 26, 2014, equipped with a 1.3T GeTec DVVT turbocharged engine, featuring front-wheel drive, a maximum power of 98kW, turbo engagement at 1800 rpm, and peak torque of 185NM at 2000 rpm. Related configurations: For the interior, the EC7-RV adopts a unique red-and-black dual-tone design, with more striking orange-red accents on the seats and both door panels, giving it a sportier look. In terms of power, the 2013 Geely Emgrand EC7 still comes with 1.5L and 1.8L engines. The 1.5L variant is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, while the 1.8L variant offers either a 5-speed manual transmission or a CVT continuously variable transmission.
Whether a Geely Emgrand can last 15 years largely depends on how you maintain and use it. My old Emgrand ran for nearly 15 years, mainly because the engine and transmission were quite durable—regular oil changes, brake pad inspections, and timely tire replacements were key. Avoid driving frequently on muddy roads and overloading to prevent damage to the suspension and chassis. However, electrical components require attention: the battery needs replacement every 3-5 years, and electronic devices age faster. With proper maintenance, it can easily surpass 100,000 km; but with rough driving, issues may pile up within 7-8 years. Overall, hitting 15 years is entirely feasible, but it demands diligent upkeep—don’t ignore minor issues.
