Geely's Galaxy E5 SUV has emerged as a noteworthy contender in the electric vehicle (EV) market, offering a blend of comfort and value at a competitive price range of 109,800 yuan (approximately US$15,165) to 145,800 yuan. The vehicle is equipped with a 60.22kWh battery pack, which initially promises a range of 280 km. However, users have reported a significant drop in range, with the vehicle showing only 50 km of remaining range after 110 km of driving, raising concerns about its reliability in long-distance travel. The Galaxy E5 features a 15.4-inch infotainment screen, a heads-up display, and even massage seats, enhancing the overall driving experience. Additionally, the SUV provides ample cargo space, measuring 461 liters, which can be expanded to 1,877 liters when needed. Despite its appealing features, some design and usability issues have been noted by reviewers. A unique aspect of the Galaxy E5 is its AI assistant, named Yinhe, which engages users with flirty interactions, adding a quirky touch to the driving experience. Geely has also reported impressive sales figures, surpassing 100,000 new energy vehicle (NEV) sales in October 2024, marking an 83% year-on-year increase. This surge in sales reflects the growing popularity of Geely's offerings in the competitive EV landscape. [48417d88]
