Geely has begun UK sales of the EX2, a compact electric hatchback sold in China as the Xingyuan, where it has been one of the best-selling cars on the market in recent months regardless of powertrain.
The range opens with the EX2 Pro at GBP 20,990, built around a 35 kWh battery and a 60 kW (82 hp) rear motor for up to 155 miles (249 km) of WLTP range. That is a modest figure - the upcoming VW ID. Polo, with a similarly sized battery, is expected to travel roughly 50 miles further. The EX2 Max and EX2 Ultra use a larger 47 kWh battery and an 85 kW (114 hp) motor, extending WLTP range to 214 miles (344 km), and are priced at GBP 23,490 and GBP 25,490 respectively.
All three versions charge at up to 6.6 kW on AC and up to 80 kW on DC, with a 30 to 80 percent top-up taking around 25 minutes.
Standard equipment across the range includes a 14.6-inch infotainment touchscreen, an 8.8-inch digital instrument cluster, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, vehicle-to-load (V2L) capability, keyless entry, adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking and driver-assistance systems. The range-topping Ultra adds a 360-degree camera system, heated front seats and steering wheel, a powered tailgate and an upgraded sound system.
