Perhaps today’s Chinese brands are the undisputed leaders in terms of the speed of updating their models. For example, the Geely brand only carried out a restyling of the Coolray crossover about a year ago, since the next version of this compact SUV is already ready.
The current update turned out to be much deeper. If the previous modernization involved only a tweaked body kit, now the Chinese brand has become generous with completely different optics: both headlights and lanterns are now slightly narrowed. In addition, the designers organized a huge radiator grille, and the new bumpers were decorated with spectacular red inserts.
In the interior, the most important asset is a huge LED panel, consisting of two screens with a diagonal of 12.3 inches each. Interior designers also replaced the gear lever, door trim and center console – a platform for wireless charging of gadgets appeared on the dashboard.
The engine compartment has its own new things: instead of a three-cylinder 1.5 liter turbo engine 1.5, the crossover got the latest “turbo four”, which is hidden under the BHE15 index. This is the first creation of the Aurobay company, which is the “daughter” of the Geely concern: the sitters “removed” 181 liters from one and a half liters of working volume. Of. and 290 Nm.
With a fresh engine, the ‘heavenly’ SUV has become a bit faster and more economical. So, the acceleration time to “hundreds” was reduced to 7.6 seconds from the previous 7.9, and fuel consumption in the passport decreased by a good half liter – on average the car consumes 5.8 liters “ninety seconds”. By the way, the previous transmission is a seven-speed preselective “robot”.
The newcomer plans to hit the home market this fall. And the restyled Geely Coolray can only arrive to us after production has started at the BelGee factory in Belarus.
Incidentally, Geely appears to be preparing to reclaim the markets now dominated by Korean automakers. In any case, all the latest novelties of the “heavenly” brand look no less, if not more “daring” than the products released under the Kia and Hyundai brands. The most recent confirmation of this is the Geely FX11 crossover.
