Geely's Bin Yue and Borui GE plug-in hybrid models are equipped with Volvo engines. Taking Bin Yue as an example, this is a compact SUV under the Geely brand, which uses two types of engines: a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine and a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. The dimensions of the Bin Yue are: length 4330mm, width 1800mm, height 1609mm, with a wheelbase of 2600mm. The Borui GE plug-in hybrid version is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 1.5T three-cylinder turbocharged engine, an electric motor, a battery pack, and a 7-speed DCT hybrid transmission. When driving in pure electric mode, the speed can reach 120 km/h. When the displayed remaining range is zero, the engine will forcibly start. The comprehensive range under pure electric mode can reach 60 km.

From an automotive technology perspective, Geely's vehicles that utilize Volvo engines are primarily in the Lynk & Co series. For example, both the Lynk & Co 01 and Lynk & Co 03 are equipped with Volvo's 1.5T or 2.0T engines, which deliver strong power output, quick acceleration response, and relatively low fuel consumption. I've studied these models, and the engines originate from Volvo's Drive-E platform, incorporating efficient combustion technology and turbocharging, resulting in smooth and quiet driving. After sharing Volvo's technology, Geely has significantly improved the overall reliability and durability of its vehicles. Models like the Lynk & Co 05 feature similar configurations, with safety systems such as collision prevention drawing inspiration from Volvo's designs. In real-world driving, the engine noise control is excellent, and maintenance costs are relatively low. If you're focused on performance, the Lynk & Co brand is the most direct embodiment of the collaboration between Geely and Volvo.

As an average car owner, I've driven the Geely Lynk & Co 01, which is indeed equipped with a Volvo engine. The daily driving experience feels powerful, and overtaking on highways is effortless. The fuel consumption is reasonable, averaging around 7 liters per 100 kilometers, making it quite agile for urban commuting. Volvo's technological input enhances the car's safety performance, with features like automatic emergency braking and lane-keeping assist being very practical. I feel more at ease driving in rainy conditions. The engine has a long maintenance interval, requiring an oil change only every 20,000 kilometers, which saves both money and hassle. Through this collaboration, Geely has brought a premium experience to more affordable models. I recommend trying the Lynk & Co 03 or the Xingyue L, which come with similar configurations. Personally, I find it more reliable than purely domestic engines.

As a young person, I love pursuing fashion and dynamism. The Geely Lynk & Co 03 is really cool—it uses a Volvo 1.5T engine with quick acceleration response, making it a blast to drive. The exterior design is avant-garde, the interior is modern, and the driver's seat offers great support, ensuring comfort on long trips. The Volvo engine delivers linear power output, handling both city traffic jams and highway sprints with ease. Plus, smart connectivity features like remote start via smartphone make daily commutes super convenient. The price is also budget-friendly, much more cost-effective than purely imported cars. If you love a sporty style, the Lynk & Co series is one of the most worthwhile choices among Geely's lineup.
