Where is the Geely Xingrui transmission produced?
2 Answers
Geely Xingrui's transmission is independently developed by Geely. The functions of the transmission are: 1. To change the transmission ratio and expand the range of torque and speed variation of the driving wheels; 2. To enable the car to reverse while keeping the engine rotation direction unchanged; 3. To use neutral gear to interrupt power transmission, allowing the engine to start, idle, and facilitate gear shifting or power output. Taking the Xingrui 2021 2.0T Elite model as an example, its dimensions are 4785 mm in length, 1869 mm in width, and 1469 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2800 mm, a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters, a curb weight of 1500 kg, and a body structure of a 4-door, 5-seater sedan.
I've been following the Xingrui for a long time and have specifically researched its transmission configuration. This car uses Geely's own 7DCT transmission, which is completely domestically produced. I remember being amazed by its smoothness during my first test drive - there's almost no jerking during low-speed gear shifts. It's manufactured at the Hangzhou Bay production base using Volvo's technical standards, but at a much lower cost than imported transmissions. For family cars, domestically produced transmissions are actually more reliable, with easier maintenance and cheaper parts. My friend's car has run 50,000 kilometers and the transmission still performs like new - this kind of reliability is rare in the 100,000-yuan sedan segment.
