Geely EX5 officially launched for Thailand market, starting at RM111,000
As we await the official launch of the Proton eMas 7, Geely has made a significant move by launching the Galaxy E5 model (or Geely EX5) in the Thai market.
Two variants are offered in the neighboring country: the Pro variant, priced at THB 859,000 (approximately RM111,000), and the Max variant, which costs THB 949,000 (approximately RM123,000).
The Geely EX5 shares similar specifications with the eMas 7, equipped with a single electric motor delivering 218 PS and 320 Nm of torque.
The Aegis 60.22 kWh battery pack provides a driving range of up to 495 km on a full charge, based on NEDC standards.
The Geely EX5 also supports 11 kW AC charging, allowing it to fully charge in 6.1 hours, as well as 100 kW DC fast charging, which enables charging from 30% to 80% in just 20 minutes.
Unlike the Proton eMas 7, the Geely EX5 comes standard with Apple CarPlay connectivity.
With the official entry of the Geely brand into the Thai market, what will happen to the plans of the Chinese automotive giant to use the Proton brand for the ASEAN market and other right-hand drive markets?
