What level of SUV is the Geely Icon?
2 Answers
Geely Icon is a compact SUV with the following dimensions: length 4350mm, width 1810mm, height 1615mm, wheelbase 2640mm, fuel tank capacity 51L, and front-wheel drive configuration. It features MacPherson strut independent front suspension and multi-link independent rear suspension. The Geely Icon is powered by a 1.5T turbocharged engine paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, delivering maximum power of 130kW at 5500rpm and peak torque of 255Nm between 1500-4000rpm.
I know the Geely Icon quite well. As a compact SUV, it's about 4.35 meters long with a wheelbase of 2.64 meters, providing enough space for five people to sit comfortably without crowding in the back seats. The trunk can fit two large suitcases plus some small items. It's particularly agile in the city, making parking easy, and the fuel consumption is around 7.5L/100km in daily driving, which is genuinely economical. I chose it because of its trendy appearance—those geometric line designs really appeal to young people. Priced between 80,000 to 120,000 yuan, it's cheaper than comparable models like the Haval H2 but doesn't skimp on features, offering a rearview camera and automatic headlights. It's highly practical, suitable for both commuting and weekend trips, meeting the daily needs of a family with low maintenance costs. However, the suspension is a bit stiff, so you need to slow down over speed bumps. Overall, it's the king of value for money in the entry-level compact SUV segment.
