About the Geely E5

The Geely E5 is a mid-size crossover available in South Africa across both fully electric and plug-in hybrid EM-i configurations in Aspire and Apex specification levels, making it one of the more versatile electrified crossovers in the local market with a choice between pure EV range and hybrid flexibility. The EM-i hybrid variants offer a lower entry price with the flexibility of petrol range extension, while the fully electric Aspire and Apex target buyers committed to full electric ownership. It competes with the BYD Sealion 5 and Haval H6 HEV in the electrified mid-size crossover segment, and suits buyers who want a Chinese electrified crossover with a choice of powertrain to match their lifestyle.
