Geely expands global EV lineup and sales

Overview

Geely continues to roll out its low‑cost electric models across new markets and segments. After confirming Australian approval for the EX2 in June 2026, the company officially launched the EX2 hatchback in Australia in August. Starting at AU$26,490 before on‑road costs, the model is available in two variants: a Complete version with a 35 kWh LFP battery (252 km WLTP range) and an Inspire version with a 47.1 kWh battery (345 km WLTP range). In Europe, the E2 urban utility vehicle is expanding its footprint. In Spain, Geely announced pricing starting from €13,990 during an early reservation campaign. Following this, the E2 Pro will have a standard price of €14,490. Geely is also expanding the E2 into France and Germany. In France, the model debuts in September 2026 at €20,990, with a goal of opening 70 dealerships by year-end. In Germany, reservations start at €19,990 and include a €621 charging credit from EnBW. Additionally, Geely has launched the E2 in Hungary, where the Pro trim is available from 7,499,000 HUF. In August 2026, the EX2 achieved significant commercial success, recording 60,955 global sales. In the Chinese market, the EX2 led all monthly sales with 39,651 units, contributing to a broader trend where nine of the ten best-selling models in China were battery electric vehicles. Geely Auto Group reported a 205% increase in global exports, driven largely by a 446% surge in new energy model exports. By September 2026, data confirmed that electric vehicles achieved “total dominance” in China’s top-selling car rankings for August. Nine of the ten best-selling models were exclusively battery-powered, marking the second time in 2026 that no purely gasoline-powered vehicle reached the top ten.
