Geely Galaxy E5 is the first pure electric SUV in the Galaxy series aimed at global markets. Its design draws inspiration from porcelain and prioritizes user comfort. By combining Geely's global research and development capabilities and top-notch design expertise, the Galaxy E5 stands as a high-quality smart vehicle for users worldwide.

Universal Aesthetics: Inspired by Chinese porcelain, renowned for its timeless beauty that transcends eras and appeals to both refined and popular tastes, the exterior features nine facets varied in curvatures, echoing the luxury and elegance of porcelain. Adding to its allure is the one-piece luminous front face named "Ripples of Light". Crafted using Geely's self-developed micro-hole laser engraving technology, the front face boasts over 20,000 0.2mm micro-holes. This innovation ensures an even light distribution without revealing the base color, akin to the glow seen in the Linglong ware, a distinguished type of Chinese porcelain. Moreover, the exterior is available in various colors that reflect the sky hues across different time zones at a shared moment, aesthetically resonating with global consumers.

Elevated Driving Comfort for Global Users: The Galaxy E5 incorporates Chinese wisdom of sitting comfort. Inspired by the traditional Chinese Taishi armchair, it features a high console for elbow support, alleviating spinal strain to prevent slouching. The ergonomic seat using aerospace-grade memory foam balances softness, tailored fit, and robust support for an optimal seating position and comfort. The UI design adapts to various user habits, paired with large buttons to facilitate both left-hand and right-hand driving.

Comfortable and Convenient Journeys in a Versatile Space: Built upon Geely's GEA global intelligent new energy architecture, this A-segment SUV boasts a proportioned and tall silhouette, outperforming its class with a maximized interior space rivaling that of a larger B-segment vehicle. The rear seats offer dual-position adjustments: they can recline to 109° for lounging or be folded flat to adapt to various activities. Storage becomes a breeze with 33 thoughtfully placed storage compartments, ensuring that frequently used items are always within reach and neatly stowed away. This versatile design meets the needs of all family members in any scenario and at any time.
