BREAKING: China's Most Feared Car Brand Set to Invade Australia - Is Your Favourite Aussie Ute in Danger?

September 11, 2024

The automotive landscape in Australia is about to get a major shake-up, as the Geely brand is gearing up to launch its first model in the country - the highly-anticipated mid-sized EX5 electric SUV. With the company confirming that the car will hit Australian shores 'soon', it appears that the influx of Chinese car brands in the country is far from over.

Geely, which is also the parent company of Volvo, Lynk & Co., and Polestar, has been making waves in the global automotive industry in recent years, thanks to its innovative electric vehicles, sleek designs, and most importantly, aggressive pricing strategy.

And now, the company is turning its sights on Australia, with plans to launch a series of vehicles in the country. The EX5 electric SUV, which has already been a hit in several countries, will be Geely's first foray into the Australian market.

So, what can we expect from the Geely EX5 electric SUV? For starters, it boasts an impressive range of over 400km on a single charge, thanks to its cutting-edge electric powertrain. The car also features a sleek, modern design that is sure to turn heads, as well as a host of advanced safety features, including adaptive cruise control and lane departure warning.

Under the hood, the EX5 packs a punch, with its electric motor producing a healthy 150kW of power and 320Nm of torque. The car also features a range of advanced technology features, including a massive touchscreen display, smartphone connectivity, and a premium audio system.

But what really sets the Geely EX5 apart is its price. With reports suggesting that the car will start from under $40,000, it's clear that Geely is going to shake up the Australian market with its aggressive pricing strategy.

And that's exactly what has many in the industry worried. With several Chinese car brands already gaining traction in Australia, many are wondering if local car buyers will soon be abandoning their favourite Aussie utes for more affordable, and feature-packed options from China.

But it's not just the local car manufacturers that are worried. With several multinational car brands struggling to compete with the likes of Geely, it's clear that the Australian automotive industry is on the cusp of a major transformation.

As Geely gears up to launch the EX5 electric SUV, and several other Chinese car brands prepare to follow suit, it's clear that the concept of a traditional Australian ute is about to be turned on its head. So, is your favourite Aussie ute in danger? One thing's for sure - the future of the Australian automotive industry is about to get a whole lot more interesting.
