On August 3rd, Geely Galaxy E5(picture | configuration | inquiry) was officially listed. A total of five new models were launched, and the price range was 112,800 to 148,800 yuan, which was more than 10,000 yuan cheaper than the pre-sale price (the pre-sale range was 123,000 to 157,000 yuan). In addition, the new car currently has a limited time transaction price of 10.98-145,800, so the cost performance is beyond doubt. It is reported that the new car is positioned as a pure electric compact SUV, and this is still a global model, which has a lot of points, such as S.H.I.E.L.D. short knife battery, 11 in 1 smart electric drive, CTB body battery integration technology, etc., as for the specific performance of the new car, we will continue to see.。
As usual, we first look at the appearance, the shape of the new car is very simple, the use of closed grille makes the front look very simple, but the air intake on both sides still shows a certain sense of movement. By the way, the similar grille design on the front is actually decorative, and the color is also very light, so it is not eye-catching, this point the author feels a little redundant, the grille is still simple.
The shape of the side of the car is rounded, and the roof line is relatively straight, which can also be seen that this is a main home, space SUV model. In terms of details, there is no need to say more about the hidden door handle, the wheel ring has 18 and 19 versions (according to the configuration of the height), and the wheel arch is also used in black material, giving a very durable feeling. In terms of size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4615/1901/1670mm, and the wheelbase is 2750mm, which is more advantageous than the yuan PLUS(picture | configuration | inquiry) and ID.4 of the same level.
The tail is also concise, and the popular through-type taillights are not absent, and the effect after lighting is also amazing. In addition, the trunk space of the new car is also a big point of view, in addition to the above, there is a very large space below, practicality does not need to be said.
Coming to the car, the interior design of the new car is also quite interesting, its overall design is also the main simple, the visual focus is undoubtedly the middle of the 15.4 inch 2.5K screen, and the built-in Meizu Flyme system. In addition, the through-air conditioning outlet shape also makes the entire interior quite layered, compared to the minimalist design of Tesla, the interior of Geely Galaxy E5 is undoubtedly more popular.
As for other highlights, I will casually mention two sentences, first of all, its front row storage space is very large, in addition to the conventional place, there is a large space under the central channel, let alone a girl’s bag, boys’ schoolbags can also fit; There is cold air in the glove box, and cold drinks can also play a role in keeping warm.
As just said, the new car is a family SUV, so the rear space is also a lot of things to watch. First of all, its seat is very soft, and the backrest also supports two adjustable sections, especially in the case of the back, long distance travel does not have to worry about the rear passengers will be uncomfortable. In addition, because it is an SUV, at the same time using CTB battery body integration technology, so its overall height is not high, the seat is not very low, and there is also support at the thigh after sitting up, which is very good. In terms of charging, there is a Type and USB in the back row respectively, and there is no need to worry about charging.
In terms of power, the new car is driven by a pure electric single motor, the maximum power is 160kW, the maximum torque is 320N·m, and the zero acceleration time is only 6.9s. Although this data some people find unpleasant, but combined with its price is already very good. In contrast, the motors of the Volkswagen ID.4 (rear drive version) and the Yuan PLUS are only 150kW.
In terms of battery life, the new car has two versions of 440km and 530km (both CLTC conditions) to choose from, compared with the Yuan PLUS 430km and 510km (both CLTC conditions) also has advantages. As for the Volkswagen ID.4, although it has a 600km version, the price is also much more expensive. In addition, the author thinks that the potential users of Yuan PLUS and Geely Galaxy E5 are one batch, and the Volkswagen ID.4 is another batch, so basically there is no need to tangle.
In general, the goal of Geely Galaxy E5 is very clear, that is, BYD’s Yuan PLUS, after all, it is the first choice in this market. Specifically, Geely Galaxy E5 has advantages over Yuan PLUS in appearance, size, interior, power, configuration, and of course price, after all, it has a late mover advantage. Of course, we believe that BYD will not sit still, the only way is definitely to replace or reduce prices, at present, price reduction is the most effective way. So if you just want the Yuan PLUS, then you can totally wait, but if you are torn between two cars, then the Galaxy E5 may be the choice of more people.
