Geely has a 35-year history. Product series under the brand: Geely Auto's product portfolio includes models such as Xingyue L, Xingrui, Xingyue S, Borui, Boyue series, Haoyue, Jiaji, Emgrand series, and Vision series, covering various segments including sedans, SUVs, and MPVs. These models encompass traditional fuel, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and pure electric power systems. Engines and transmissions: Geely offers six series of engines including 1.0L (three-cylinder), 1.0L (four-cylinder), 1.3L, 1.5L, 1.6L, and 1.8L. It also provides seven series of transmissions, namely JLS160, JLS160A, JLS110, JLS90, Z110, Z130, and Z170, all of which have passed China's 3C certification and meet Euro III emission standards. Among them, the 4G18 and 4G10 engines have already achieved Euro IV standards.
Geely Auto has quite a long history. I know it was established in 1986, which means it has been around for nearly forty years now. Li Shufu initially started by manufacturing refrigerator parts. Back in those days, China's economy had just opened up, and private enterprises faced tough beginnings. In 1997, Geely officially entered the automotive industry and launched its first car model, which faced a lot of skepticism at the time. Over the decades of development, Geely has not only captured a significant market share domestically but also successfully acquired Volvo in 2010, which completely transformed the international perception of Chinese automobiles. Today, Geely is actively expanding in the new energy sector, with brands like Lynk & Co going global. I really admire this kind of entrepreneurial spirit that built something from scratch—it has brought confidence and vitality to the entire industry and allowed more people to drive affordable, high-quality domestic cars. Looking back over these years, Geely's journey through various technological innovations and market challenges is truly an inspiring story.
