2 hrs agoThe eagerly awaited Geely EX2 — a fully electric hatchback from the Chinese automaker — is poised to hit South African showrooms any day now, with local dealers reportedly preparing for its imminent launch later this month.
Known in China as the Galaxy Geome Xingyuan, the EX2 (simplified to E2 in some markets) made history as China’s best‑selling car in 2025, shifting an astonishing 465 000+ units — beating rivals like the Hongguan Mini EV by a significant margin.
The compact, five‑door hatchback blends urban practicality with electric efficiency. It’s built on Geely’s modern GEA platform and offers a respectable range — up to 333 km WLTP on larger battery variants — plus fast‑charging capability that can take it from 30% to 80% in around 25 minutes.
Inside, expect a surprisingly tech‑rich cabin for its segment, complete with a large infotainment screen, digital driver display, and safety gear like multiple airbags and LED lighting — features often absent in entry‑level EVs.
If priced competitively — likely under R400 000 given its rivalry with the BYD Dolphin Surf — the EX2 could redefine affordable EV mobility in South Africa, offering commuters a compelling mix of range, features, and everyday usability.
