GEELY EX5 MAX 160kW 60kWh SUV.5DR.auto

The Geely EX5 Max is the range-topping version of Geely’s first electric SUV launched in the UK. It is positioned as a high-value competitor to models like the Kia EV3, Skoda Elroq, and BYD Atto 3.
Key Specifications & Performance
Price: Starts at £36,990, though promotional “Geely Grants” of up to £3,750 and part-exchange allowances can reduce the effective price to around £32,240.
Range: Approximately 255 miles (WLTP), which is slightly lower than the entry-level SE trim (267 miles) due to the Max’s additional weight and larger 19-inch wheels.
Battery & Charging: Equipped with a 60.2 kWh “Short Blade” LFP battery. It supports 160 kW DC fast charging, allowing a 30% to 80% charge in about 20–28 minutes.
Performance: A front-mounted electric motor delivers 215 bhp (218 PS), achieving 0–62 mph in approximately 7.1 seconds
Exclusive Max Trim Features
The Max trim adds several luxury and tech enhancements over the SE and Pro models:
Comfort: Ventilated and massaging front seats, including a “zero-gravity” passenger leg rest.
Technology: A large 13.8-inch Head-Up Display (HUD) and a premium 1,000W 16-speaker Flyme sound system.
Interior & Exterior: An opening panoramic sunroof, 256-colour ambient lighting, a powered tailgate, and 19-inch low-drag alloy wheels.
Ownership & Warranty
Warranty: Comes with an industry-leading 8-year/125,000-mile vehicle and battery warranty.
Assistance: Includes 4 years of roadside assistance and a service inclusive package.
Practicality: Offers a 461-litre boot (expanding to 1,877 litres with seats down) and unique features like an under-seat storage drawer in the rear.
While praised for its Lotus-tuned ride comfort and exceptional value, some reviewers note that the driver assistance alerts (lane-keep and speed warnings) can be overly intrusive.
