The Geely GEOME XINGYUAN, a fully electric hatchback, has officially hit the Chinese market, with expected deliveries commencing later this September. The Chinese-market bound e-car boasts an impressive 4.1-meter length, coupled with 114 horsepower and a remarkable 410-kilometer range, potentially positioning it as a formidable competitor to the popular BYD Dolphin model in its domestic market. Geome Xingyuan EV signals the inaugural partnership between Geely and renowned confectionery brand Häagen-Dazs, marking a new frontier in the electric vehicle market.
Prior to its rebranding, the Geomotive electric vehicle was known internally by its developers at Geely as Geometry. Despite this, a relatively modest sales volume ultimately led to a demotion into the Geely brand lineup. As Xingyuan EV sets its sights on writing a fresh page in the storied history of Geome. The company introduces a revolutionary design philosophy and sets its sights on captivating an entirely fresh demographic.
The sleek silhouette of the Geely Geome Xingyuan exudes a sense of dynamic sophistication. Its aerodynamic profile is further accentuated by the subtle creases that run along its flanks, giving the impression of a coiled spring ready to pounce. The front fascia features a prominent grille and swept-back headlights that evoke a sense of futuristic flair.
Step inside, and you’re greeted by an interior that’s as modern as it is luxurious. The cabin is trimmed in premium materials, from the soft-touch plastics to the stitched leather upholstery. The dashboard boasts a sleek, high-definition touchscreen display, flanked by intuitive climate controls and a minimalist array of buttons.

The Geey Geome Xingyuan boasts a modern design aesthetic, characterized by distinctive oval-shaped headlights and taillights, a streamlined front fascia, sleek blackened pillars, flush-fitting door handles, and an overall minimalist silhouette. This compact design aligns seamlessly with Geely’s vision for urban transportation.
The innovative electric vehicle boasts a range of distinctive features, including four-spoke R16 alloy wheels, the “Geome” logo emblazoned on the D-pillars, and a palette of body colors inspired by the vibrant hues of ice cream. Available in a palette of seven distinctive hues: Vanilla Beige, Basil Green, Berry Pink, Creamy White, Metallic Silver, Charcoal Grey, and Ocean Blue. The electric vehicle’s exact measurements are 4,135mm in length, 1,805mm in width, and 1,570mm in height, featuring a wheelbase of 2,650mm. Measuring 10 mm longer and 35 mm wider than its predecessor, the BYD Dolphin.
Inside the Geely Geome Xingyuan, a generous suspended touchscreen dominates the dashboard, accompanied by an LCD instrument panel that leverages Meizu’s innovative Flyme Auto OS for seamless integration. It offers extensive support for video games, boasting an impressive array of customization options. Additionally, Flyme Auto features an integrated AI-powered voice assistant and seamless compatibility with Meizu smartphones.
Inside, upscale amenities surround a sleek, two-spoke steering wheel, while thoughtful touches include two cup holders, a compact gear shifter, and ambient, metropolitan-inspired light displays on the central console and door panels. The glove box in the Xingyuan EV offers a spacious interior with approximately 10 litres of usable storage space. The Geom’s hatchback boasts a total of 36 storage compartments, including its generous glove box. The vehicle’s trunk space capacity amounts to 375 litres. With the second-row seats folded, the cargo space measures a generous 1,320 litres. In addition to its sleek design, this vehicle also boasts an impressive 70-liter cargo space in the front trunk (frunk).
Unlike exterior hues, no nod to ice cream is apparent in the monikers of Xingyuan’s interior colors. Accessible in two colours: Sky Mirror White and Wizard Green.
