Will the new-generation Geely Atlas crossover reach Russia?

The latest Geely Atlas L rolls off the assembly lines of a factory in Ningbo, China. When the crossover will reach the Russian market (and whether it will reach at all) is unknown. Portal “AvtoVzglyad” provides details.

The second generation of Geely Atlas – the crossover of the same name with the letter “L” added to the name – began to be produced in China. It is based on the Russian-known CMA platform based on the Geely Tugella model. Compared to the first generation Atlas, the new product is slightly longer, wider and lower. The dimensions are 4670 × 1900 × 1705 mm versus 4544 × 1713 × 1831 mm for its predecessor. The wheelbase has also grown, from 2670 to 2777 mm.

Atlas L for the Chinese market can be equipped with one of two turbocharged petrol engines: a 1.5-litre engine with 181 hp and a 2-litre engine with 218 hp. Of. A variant with a hybrid power plant is also expected. In terms of Russian money, Geely Atlas L costs about 1.2-1.5 million rubles in China, the publication “Chinese-avtomobili.rf” reported.

But the appearance of a new model on our market, apparently, can only be dreamed of, since there are no reports of plans for official importation into our country. As for the Belarusian JV BelGee, who compiled Geely Atlas, the prospects for Atlas L to appear on its stocks is no less bleak. If only because this venture has actually completely frozen the production of crossovers, which were once considered a hit among Chinese cars in the Russian market.
