core of the group

Geely Auto is the flagship mass-market brand of Geely Automobile Holdings, offering versatile cars with a balanced mix of price, quality, and modern tech. The brand's roots go back to 1998 with its first car, the HQ (Haoqing) subcompact hatchback — a reworked third-generation Daihatsu Charade. Since then, it's expanded into sedans, crossovers, hybrids, and EVs, with a focus on smart control systems and clean transport.
