3 Answers
Geely FE-7 is the hatchback version of the Emgrand EC-7. The Emgrand EC7 comes with two powertrain options: The 1.8L model is still equipped with Geely's self-developed GETEC JLγ-4G18 CVVT all-aluminum engine, featuring CVVT (Continuously Variable Valve Timing) technology. It delivers a maximum output power of 102kW and a peak torque of 172N·m, with a specific output reaching 57.2kW per liter. In terms of parameters, it achieves top-tier performance among domestic 1.8L engines in its class. The newly introduced 1.5L model is powered by a 1.5L DVVT engine, producing a maximum power of 80kW at 6000rpm and a peak torque of 135N·m at 4800rpm. This newly added 1.5L engine is the same as the one used in the New Vision 1.5 model, employing DVVT technology (Dual Variable Valve Timing system for both intake and exhaust). Emgrand EC7 fuel consumption: The 1.5L version of the Emgrand EC7 has a fuel consumption of 8.2L/100km. The 1.8L CVT version consumes 9.0L/100km, while the 1.8L MT version has a fuel consumption of 8.9L/100km.
That FE-7 from Geely is actually their new energy brand's Geometry E electric vehicle. I'm quite familiar with this car because I've followed several test reports since its launch. Last year, I test drove it at a local 4S dealership and found it particularly suitable for urban commuting. The powertrain is purely electric, providing quick and quiet starts, with a range of around 400 kilometers. Fast charging can replenish most of the battery in just over half an hour. The design follows a youthful approach, with a sharp front fascia and streamlined body. The interior is minimalist and modern, featuring a large touchscreen that operates as conveniently as a smartphone. Safety features include automatic braking and lane departure warnings, making my daily commute stress-free even in heavy traffic. The only thing to note is the need for regular battery maintenance checks, especially in regions with significant temperature differences between winter and summer, like northern areas. Overall, it offers great value for money, saving significantly compared to gasoline cars, making it a worthwhile transition to new energy for young buyers.
The FE-7 is another name for the Geely Geometry E. I've actually used this car for a while, and pure electric vehicles can really save money. Previously, driving a gasoline car cost me thousands in fuel every month, but after switching to this, electricity bills were only a few hundred. A single charge could last a whole week of commuting. The space is well-designed, with ample seating in both front and rear rows, making it easy to fit child seats or shopping bags. The handling is light and nimble, suitable for housewives or daily grocery runs, though long trips require more planning for charging stations. The interior is simple and stain-resistant, with leather upholstery that's easy to maintain—even my son playing in the back seat couldn't dirty it. Remember to check tire and battery health; occasional maintenance keeps performance up. Overall, it's a practical and affordable electric car with sufficient features.
