What kind of transmission does the Geely Boyue use?
2 Answers
Geely Boyue uses a 6-speed manual transmission. In terms of power, the Geely Boyue is equipped with a 1.8TD turbocharged engine, which has a maximum horsepower of 163 hp, a maximum torque of 250 Nm, and a maximum power of 120 kW. The maximum torque speed ranges from 1,500 to 4,500 rpm, and the maximum power speed is 5,500 rpm. In terms of appearance, the front face design of the Geely Boyue follows the Geely family-style water ripple grille. Considering the sense of power of an SUV, the designers reduced the number of grids, making the overall look more concise and the edges more distinct.
I've been driving the Geely Boyue for over a year now, equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. This design makes gear shifts exceptionally smooth on city roads, with almost no jerking sensation. The transmission works by alternating between two clutches—one managing odd-numbered gears and the other even-numbered gears—resulting in quick acceleration response and direct power delivery at startup, making it ideal for daily commutes. It also offers better fuel efficiency compared to traditional automatic transmissions, with an average consumption of around 8L/100km, saving a significant amount on fuel costs. However, it's important to note that wet DCTs require regular oil changes and maintenance to avoid overheating issues. I recommend a check-up every two years or 40,000 km, and try to avoid frequent stop-and-go traffic on congested roads for extended periods. Compared to other Geely models like the Emgrand, the Boyue's tuning is more comfortable, delivering a reliable and cost-effective experience overall. For friends with a budget of around 100,000 yuan, choosing the Boyue is definitely the right move.
