The Geely Galaxy E8 was launched in China with a starting price of C¥175,800 (USD $24,760). Its top trim level has two motors totalling 475 kW, and a 620-km range.
Its main lighting features are thin headlamps hidden in the bumper and an illuminating grilleboard Geely call the “Ripple of Water”. This is the first world’s mass-produced vehicle with a one-piece illuminated front face. Precision microperforation laser carving techniques create 158 illuminated windows through a 0.2-mm dot matrix design. This ensures a seamless blend between the vehicle’s luminous appeal and paint colour.
The Galaxy E8’s drag coefficient is 0.199; the only model with a better Cd is the recently unveiled Xiaomi SU7.
At the rear we can see a really nice 3D lens shape, reminiscent of Mercedes’ safety-corrugated taillights of the 1970s and ’80s.
The Geely Galaxy E8 is built on the SEA platform which underpins Zeekr, Smart, Volvo, Lotus, and other-brands EVs.
