News about Geely
Ford and Geely Auto have signed a 66/34 joint venture to build EVs at Ford's Valencia plant in Spain, confirming and reshaping the informal deal first rumored in May 2026. The venture adds a Bronco-family SUV, a new Ford crossover, and two Geely electric SUVs from 2028; specific Geely models and full powertrain splits remain unconfirmed.
Geely has unveiled the Thunder 16-in-1 Intelligent E-Drive, a compact electric drive unit that folds 12 hardware components and 4 control systems into one module. The company says it reaches 93.8% efficiency, among the best figures for a production e-drive, while cutting part count by more than 180 and bringing unit weight down to 75 kg. The unit has already debuted on the Geely Galaxy TT Ultra.
Geely has launched the EX2, a compact electric hatchback known as the Xingyuan in China, in the UK. The entry Pro trim starts at GBP 20,990 with 249 km WLTP range, while the Max and Ultra step up to a larger battery and 344 km WLTP range.
Zhejiang Geely Holding Group is headquartered in Hangzhou, China, and is one of the largest privately-owned automakers in the country. Founded in 1986 as a refrigerator manufacturer, it entered the auto industry in 1997. Key acquisitions: Volvo Cars (2010, from Ford), Proton and Lotus (2017), and a 50% stake in smart (JV with Mercedes-Benz, 2019).
Geely’s current EV and PHEV models use the GEA platform. The Xingyuan (sold in some markets as the EX2) is the volume entry-level EV on that architecture. Premium EVs are sold under the Zeekr brand; Galaxy covers the mid-market electric range under the main Geely umbrella.
Geely is expanding production into Europe - it has agreed to buy a building at Ford’s Almussafes plant in Valencia, Spain, to produce GEA-platform models alongside affordable Ford EVs on the same architecture.
