2 Answers
The leakage issue of Xingrui has not been resolved yet. More details about Geely Xingrui are as follows: 1. Introduction 1: Geely Xingrui is a compact sedan under Geely, with dimensions of 4785mm in length, 1869mm in width, and 1469mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2800mm. It is a four-door, five-seater sedan equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine across all variants. 2. Introduction 2: The 2.0-liter turbocharged engine of Geely Xingrui delivers 190 horsepower, with maximum power output at 4700 rpm and a maximum torque of 300 Nm available from 1400 to 4000 rpm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. 3. Introduction 3: The use of aluminum alloy for the cylinder head and block reduces engine weight, thereby improving fuel economy and handling. The engine is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, which enhances gear shifting speed and transmission efficiency. One clutch controls the odd-numbered gears, while the other controls the even-numbered gears. 4. Introduction 4: Geely Xingrui employs a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension. The multi-link suspension improves wheel traction, enhancing both handling and ride comfort. This suspension is derived from the double-wishbone design, with the two wishbones replaced by separate links.
I've been driving the Xingrui for over two years now. Early on, I did encounter some water leakage issues with the sunroof, mainly due to a minor design flaw in the drainage pipes. Last year during a routine maintenance visit to the 4S店, the technician proactively upgraded the sealing strips for me and replaced the drainage hoses with thicker ones at no cost. It's been through three rainy seasons since then without any leaks, and friends in the car owners' group who picked up their cars after 2023 haven't reported any leakage issues either. However, I'd recommend paying special attention to the inner side of the A-pillar and the sunroof seams when you pick up your car, and remember to clean the fallen leaves from the drainage channels during regular maintenance. Actually, new cars now undergo high-pressure spray tests before leaving the factory, so the quality control is much better than it was for our batch. The troubles we early owners faced probably won't be an issue for new owners.
