Is the Geely G-Netlink supported on the Binrui?

Geely G-Netlink is supported on the Binrui. Reasons for support: The Geely G-Netlink supports compatible models such as the new Borui, Geely S1, new Boyue, all-new Emgrand Premium, and 18th-generation GL. How to use G-Netlink: Geely G-Netlink allows drivers to use their vehicles more conveniently, effortlessly, efficiently, and safely. However, the configurations achievable through G-Netlink vary by model, so it's necessary to determine based on your specific vehicle. If the salesperson has already completed the binding during the car purchase and you are a registered G-Netlink user, you can directly open G-Netlink on the vehicle's infotainment system.

I used to tinker with this when I first got my Binrui. As an owner of the 2017 model, none of the trims came with the GNetLink module back then—had to connect via data cable for CarPlay. But later, my friend’s 2021 Sport trim supported it, with features like remote AC control and location tracking. I’d suggest checking your infotainment screen for a ‘GNetLink’ icon or looking near the gearshift for a physical button marked with ‘●’. Most newer Galaxy OS head units come with it pre-installed now, just remember to have the dealership activate the telematics service beforehand, otherwise you won’t be able to log in.

As someone who frequently tests infotainment systems, I can confirm that all Binyue models produced after 2019 come equipped with the GNetLink system. The key is to distinguish between two versions - the older version with a 7-inch screen requires downloading the 'Geely GNetLink' app on your phone for QR code binding, with features limited to remote start and vehicle diagnostics; the newer version with a 10.25-inch large screen (such as the Asian Games Edition) integrates voice-controlled windows and online navigation. Note that iPhone users need to enable the CarLife channel in the 'Personal Center' on the infotainment system for screen mirroring.

I just bought the Binrui COOL Flagship edition and am using GNetLink! The operation is super easy: after purchasing the car, the 4S store will help you register an account, and once you install the app on your phone, you can check real-time fuel consumption and driving routes. The most practical feature is pre-cooling the AC in summer—just tap your phone five minutes before leaving work, and the car will be refreshingly cool when you get in. The infotainment system also supports group travel functions, so you don’t need to constantly check your phone’s navigation during weekend road trips. However, lower trim models may lack remote functions—check the seventh line of the vehicle configuration sheet in your glove box for the ‘GKUI’ label to confirm.

From a technical compatibility perspective, it mainly depends on the model year: The 2018-2020 models are called 'Binrui' and use the GNetLink 1.5 system; after being renamed 'Binrui COOL' in 2021, the version was upgraded to 2.0. Both support Bluetooth key sharing and electronic fencing, but the new version adds OTA upgrade capability. There's an easily overlooked point – some manual transmission models are not equipped with the T-Box module, in which case remote vehicle control is unavailable. Simply open the hood, and the black square box above the left front wheel is the T-Box – if present, it definitely supports the feature.
