Emgrand 2021 UP indicates a new model launched by Geely in 2021. Vehicle Introduction: The 2021 Geely Emgrand UP is definitely worth a look, as it has achieved excellent sales and user reviews. Recently, a new variant was released with a market price of 91,800 yuan. After its launch, it will become the top-end model of the entire series, priced 7,000 yuan higher than the previous top-end 'Upward Edition', featuring upgraded configurations. Changes: Exterior-wise, the 2021 Emgrand UP's grille design shows noticeable differences compared to the 2020 model. The new Emgrand UP no longer uses the original ripple-style grille but adopts a single-sided surround with all-black vertical bars in the middle. The fog light areas on both sides of the bumper have also undergone some detailed refinements, giving the front fascia a more sophisticated appearance. From the side profile, the overall body shape remains largely unchanged. However, the 2021 Emgrand UP features new cyclone-style alloy wheels, visually enhancing the sportier feel compared to the 2020 Emgrand.

I've driven this Emgrand 2021 UP model, which is an upgraded version from Geely. The 'UP' stands for upward optimization, meaning it has higher configurations than the standard version. For example, the exterior design is more sporty, featuring LED light strips on the front face to enhance nighttime visibility; the interior has been upgraded with soft materials and a larger touchscreen that supports CarPlay, making it especially convenient for navigation while driving; the 1.5T engine has been fine-tuned for better fuel efficiency, with actual city driving consumption around 6.8L. When I bought it, I noticed the safety features were also enhanced, including blind spot monitoring, which makes highway driving more reassuring. Overall, it handles well and offers great value for money, making it a good choice for daily commuting or weekend short trips.

From a technical perspective, UP in the Emgrand 2021 represents the Optimized Edition, with its core being material and functional upgrades. The engine matching is smoother, reducing jerking sensations; the chassis suspension has been fine-tuned for enhanced comfort; it also features a newly added intelligent connectivity system enabling voice control of air conditioning and music; the environmental standards have been upgraded with emission controls compliant with China VI. These modifications make daily driving more stable and long-distance travel less fatiguing. It's recommended to test drive the actual vehicle before choosing it, as the handling difference is noticeable.

For young people pursuing trends, the Emgrand UP edition is quite eye-catching, with 'UP' symbolizing upward vitality. The design is more fashionable, featuring sharp lines paired with cool wheels; the interior has dual-tone stitching, and the seats offer strong support. The upgraded Bluetooth connectivity makes it more convenient for phone-controlled driving. It runs quietly on highways with decent sound system. Affordable yet full of personality, it's quite suitable as a first car.
