Numbers first, because with the Geely Galaxy L6 they are the story: Petrol engine, 160-287 kW. Geely built from 2023, in the decade the industry is turning electric.
Where it came from
The Geely Galaxy L6 (Chinese: 吉利银河L6; pinyin: Jílì Yínhé L6) is a plug-in hybrid compact sedan manufactured by the Chinese car manufacturer Geely Auto under the Geely Galaxy marque. The L6 is Geely Galaxy's second model, following the L7 SUV.
Under the skin
Under the skin sits Petrol engine; it is rated at 160-287 kW; other versions carried different engines, listed in the specification table below. Kerb weight is 1680–1750 kg. Power-to-weight lands near 95 horsepower per tonne, which is brisk everyday performance. The gearbox is a 3-speed NordThor DHT. The layout matters: the engine drives the front wheels, the packaging choice that gives a small car a big cabin. The wheelbase is 2752 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
In context
Where it sits in Geely's history is not in doubt: it was built at Linhai, Zhejiang, China. On a showroom list of its day it stood against the Kia EV6, the Toyota bZ3, the Mazda CX-90. Nearby in the Geely catalogue sit the Geely GE and the Geely Yuanjing X6.
