Geely has a wide range of brand models, with its high-end brands including Emgrand and Lynk & Co. These two models excel in handling, chassis, and power performance, ranking at the top among Geely's production models. Geely Emgrand (abbreviated as Emgrand) is a sub-brand under the Geely parent brand, equipped with a GeTec-DVVT turbocharged engine and front-wheel drive, boasting a maximum power of 98kW with turbo intervention at 1800 rpm. The Emgrand EC718 and EC718-RV are Geely's first B-segment sedan and hatchback models, respectively. They are also the first global car platform designed according to European standards, developed in compliance with European regulations and standards, enabling exports to developed countries and regions. LYNK & CO (Chinese name: Lingke) is a new-era high-end brand jointly established by Geely Holding Group, Geely Auto Group, and Volvo Cars. It integrates European technology, European design, global manufacturing, and global sales, based on the CMA (Compact Modular Architecture) mid-size car foundation module jointly developed by Volvo Cars and Geely Auto, led by Volvo Cars. The Lynk & Co brand competes with luxury brands in terms of technology and quality, while targeting the market positioning and consumer groups of first-tier foreign brands.
When it comes to Geely's premium brands, I've driven quite a few cars, mainly from the Lynk & Co series and the Zeekr brand. Lynk & Co targets the younger demographic, with SUVs like the 01 and 05, featuring sporty designs and spacious interiors, ideal for daily commutes. The Lynk & Co 03 is a sedan model, known for its balanced performance and popularity. The 06 is more compact, offering agile city driving. Zeekr focuses on pure electric vehicles, with the 001 blending shooting brake styling and excellent smart features. The 009 is an MPV, perfect for family trips. These cars are priced between 200,000 to 500,000 RMB, more affordable than traditional luxury cars, with safety configurations leveraging Volvo technology, ensuring a stable drive. With extensive service networks, maintenance is hassle-free, and they enjoy a good reputation, especially in the European market. Geely is pushing more electric models to enhance competitiveness.
Speaking from an owner's perspective, Geely's premium brands, Lynk & Co and Zeekr, are truly popular. The Lynk & Co 01 SUV is practical and durable, with a refined interior; the 03 sedan offers strong handling and quick acceleration. The Zeekr 001 EV boasts an ultra-long range and convenient charging. In daily use, the space is sufficient for family trips, with economical fuel or electricity consumption that won't break the bank. Maintenance is hassle-free, and the brand positioning is premium but not ostentatious, fitting well within a middle-class budget. Market feedback is generally positive, with stable resale values for used cars. Geely is expanding its global network and upgrading its technology.
