Commanding Its Place As A Leader Of Its Segment, Geely Presents The New Boyue X

Cementing its place as a leader of its segment, Geely Auto presents China with the latest iteration of their ever so desirable smart compact SUV, the Boyue X.

Now with added visual and technological upgrades, the Boyue X upholds the traditions which have made the Boyue model line one of the most popular Chinese SUVs in the world.

Geely Auto Group’s chief executive officer, Jerry Gan Jiayue, commented, “Our passion is to continuously raise the value of Chinese cars and bring Geely to the world. The launch of Boyue X further enriches Geely’s product portfolio and raises the bar for Chinese brands around the world.”

To begin with, the most noticeable update on the Boyue X is the model’s all-new look and overall design expression.

Aesthetically, the new Boyue X is the first SUV from Geely Auto to adopt the avant-garde design that was first shown on Geely’s latest ‘Vision Starburst’ concept.

Gazing at the front, surrounded by sharp air intakes, an X shaped ‘Starburst’ grille is formed, projecting a burst of youthful and dynamic energy to the model’s appearance.

In addition, ‘Crystal Eye’ LED headlamps and a silver side highlight shaped like a taut bow help the Boyue X achieve a streamlined visual outlook.

Panning to the side, serving as a contrast are the burnt orange highlights found across the vehicle’s air intake, underskirt, and brakes.

Aside from adorning sporty contours, completing its stance is a set of 19-inch Continental tires paired with five-spoke blacked out rims.

Then, continuing the Boyue’s tradition of being the smartest SUV in its segment, comprehensive upgrades have been made to the Boyue X’s ‘brain’. 

Diving inside, the model’s smart cockpit hosts Geely’s new Milky Way OS, which utilises a new generation of E02 high-performance infotainment panel CPU chip.

Notably, the Boyue X is the first mass-production model equipped with Baidu’s independently developed Honghu automotive-grade intelligent voice AI chip and platform.

That’s not all, empowering the Boyue X’s suite of assisted driving technologies is the Mobileye 4th generation EyeQ4 chip. 

As such, with its enhanced ‘brain’, the Boyue X intelligent cockpit offers its users an industry-leading HMI experience.

Furthermore, to provide users with a highly customisable premium interior experience, the Boyue X comes with programmable interior lighting and a luxurious 12-speaker BOSE sound system. 

On top of that, Geely has also teamed up with Tencent, Huawei, Baidu, and other partners to improve external APP performance and compatibility on the Boyue X intelligent cockpit system.

Performance-wise, the Boyue X comes with a powerful yet efficient heart in providing users with a reliable dynamic performance experience.

Under the hood, it beats with Geely Auto’s award-winning 1.8L turbocharged direct-injection 4-cylinder engine matched to an ultra-efficient 7-speed wet DCT gearbox. 

The 1.8TD mill provides a maximum output of 135 kW (181 hp) and 300 Nm of torque, while the 7-DCT gearbox offers an ultra-high transmission efficiency of 97 percent. 

This time-tested dynamic powertrain setup allows the Boyue X to achieve a fuel consumption rating of 7.7L for every 100 km.

Gan concluded, “As a user-oriented company, we’ve wholeheartedly listened to our users with open minds and offer them our most advanced technologies with open hearts.”
