Geely PH Shows Off The 2022 Emgrand's Fancy Taillights


Despite some photos snapped at their own showroom, Sojitz G Auto Philippines, the official local distributor of Geely surely took their time to tease their upcoming entrant in the sub-compact sedan segment: the 2022 Emgrand.

“Our confidence in the decision to finally enter the challenging sedan market comes from the overwhelming support and trust we have been getting from the people for the past two years. Not to mention the growing demand for entry level vehicles that started when the pandemic broke out.” SGAP President & CEO Yosuke Nishi said.

Geely Philippines has not officially named the sedan yet, which could indicate a different name for the Philippine market than Emgrand. It is confirmed, though, to be built in Geely Auto’s new “5G Connected Factory” which is a tour de force in car manufacturing excellence as it is capable of producing a car every 30 minutes. The factory is highly automated with a 100 percent automated welding line and a presence of Automated Guided Vehicles or AGVs that constantly move around the factory to deliver the specific panels and parts to the different sections of the factory. The AGVs are managed by the super-fast 5G+ network that allows seamless communication between these robots and cloud services that updates live information as inventory levels, production status and the AGV locations.

The yet-to-be-named sedan also shares the same platform with the Geely Coolray: B-segment Modular Architecture (BMA). The BMA is a new strategic modular architecture developed by the Geely Auto Group. The BMA can be used in compact cars, MPVs, and SUVs. With this development, the new Geely sedan is expected to offer more space, better comfort, and stable handling.

“As the economy is expected to regain its strength next year, we believe that there is no better time to bring in a new model to usher in more excitement for the Geely brand. Geely has made a significant mark in the Philippine automotive market in terms of sales and awareness in a remarkably short span of time and has aggressively expanded its network despite the pandemic and lockdowns. We have definitely exceeded what we have projected for Geely brand and we plan to continuously provide the best value products and satisfaction to our customers.” Nishi added.

  1. This Fancy Taillights of Geely Emgrand is not new to the Market. If anyone could see the Maxus D60 Compact Crossover is the first who introduced this LightBar Brake Lamp and much better Look than the Emgrand Sedan. It's a shame nobody noticed in the streets Because it's not saleable despite the advantage of having 7Seater capacity.

    1. We did review it before:

      While it was okay, it's not as well-loaded as what you've come to expect from a Chinese offering.
