Not sure why are there so many negative comments about this car. The exterior design is ok, leaning a bit more on the sober side than on the eccentric look some EVs have nowadays. Software is nice, especially for the price range. Interior looks spacious and comfortable. Good battery and motor specs to go along. Sure, it's nothing groundbreaking, but I feel like its a good car for its price. Certainly better than the ID.4 and it's software that looks like it's from the 2000s like almost all western infotainment systems.
It is a package that an awful lot of people will like, especially if some of the price is transferred to other markets. I like the range, weight, soft suspension, dimensions and price. It looks a bit Meh, like a tucson ( which sell very well ) and tech for its own sake, like pop out door handles, electric seats and the like, for me is just extra ways to create problems, but I am probably in the minority there.
It's nice that there are EVs with usable range that weigh similarly to FWD ICE cars
hey guys, it 17k !!!
surprisingly good enough for daily coomuters.
What do you think you can buy just with 17k in europe now? a motorcycle?
Besides, I really like this reviewer. Way better than any well-known car reviewers.
can't wait to see it's cousin, the Proton e.mas
Geely is doing great work with Galaxy, especially in terms of pricing.
It's not especially interesting, but it will sell incredibly well given the software, specs, and (of course) affordability.
Great review!
Good review, the e5 is very light weight on par with Tesla. This is the suv that geely need to be global best seller.
Another great review, Thanks! The weight is indeed very impressive, I guess in real world test it will have a much better range than other competitors, like the BYD atto 3. As for suspension tunning, well it is a typical Chinese like the atto 3, it's ok but sure needs some better body control.
oh, the China version of Atto 3 has soft suspension tuning too? interesting...🤔
Handling & suspension will surely better after tuned by Proton 😊
Looks... No, it's very good 😊
You should have compared to the BYD which was sitting alongside
Just wait for the Onvo L60. The look is 1000x better
Yes Onvo will be very competitive but this is one category below in terms of size and pricing
thanks for the review....doesnt a huawei phone whether running on harmony or EMUI has the same capability as the flyme in terms of integration with the vehicle software, in this case integration of harmony/EMUI with huawei cars such as aito or avatr?
The Xiaomi car as well I believe with their HyperOS
Hopefully the darker colours will look better than the very dull white and pink cars shown here. I'd be curious about bicycle carrier accessories for a model of this size and type.
white and black are the most popular color now. even my family insist white for safety (visibility in the night). when you got a family they are the priority. 😁
Looks like a bit of a mashup between the smart #3 on the outside and the Zeekr X on the inside.
Haha, you found out what Geely likes to do, take what they think is good and cheap from a couple of more expensive models from the last generation and combine them to make this generation of cars.And the Geely Galaxy's design is generally an era behind. in 2022 people were already complaining about vehicles with few physical buttons, and as a result, last year's Galaxy L7 and Galaxy L6 still had ‘‘Clean center console, no physical buttons’’ as a selling point. in 2023 people were complaining about hidden door handles for a year, but the 2024 Galaxy E5 was launched with hidden door handles as a selling point.
Interesting...well, if the RHD version really turned up to become the first Proton e.MAS model as rumoured, I think it would be received well by the Malaysian market (provided the price is under RM100k).
On another hand, I noticed there's the Atto 3 (Yuan Plus) next to the E5. Are you guys going to do a comparison with that as well?
The spec is really nice, I would queue to be the first to buy if Proton makes a RHD version even below 150k. Proton can handle the suspension tuning better than Geely.
17k € sounds nice. But is that with import tax and VAT in the EU?
Where can I buy this car, and where can I get it serviced?
Smart and Volvo are easily serviced at Mercedes and Volvo dealers. I think Polestars can get their service at Volvo, too.
With Zeekr and now Geely. I don't see a clear plan for how this is going to be handled.
I'm all for more competition from China on the European (German) market. But some things still seem a bit vague and without a good long-term plan.
Is Geely coming to Europe with Galaxy, now that there are new tariffs
only if it was rear wheel drive....
Finally some “light weight” ev, not some over 2 ton behemoth of a truck. Some Chinese ev sedans are heavier than f150 can you imagine
If possible we'd like to hear batteyry chemistry/manufacturer info if available. Thank you from Türkiye.
According to the information from 懂车帝(dongchedi, a chinese car info platform), the battery of the Galaxy E5 comes from 蜂巢能源 Honeycomb Energy (SVOLT) and 江苏耀宁 Jiangsu Yao Ning
Aegis Short Blade Battery
1:31 1,615kg 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Only if it was a sedan..
Very nice, but unfortunately tariffs will make this a dream for US and EU 😢 BTW has Samsung not trademarked "Galaxy" 😂
Galaxy is an English word, so cannot be trademarked, Galaxy S something can be
Personally, it is most important to me that a car is practical and fun to drive. Accordingly, I find some Chinese cars rather impractical, as some of them offer absurd space in the second row, but have a small trunk. Then there are the sometimes lousy driving characteristics. Let's see how it all develops
one of the most critical needs of some car owners in China is the need to take more than 2 children to school every morning
You can put down the back seat.
Pretty funny as Meizu was kinda known for their shitty software and now they produce good stuff haha
Meizu has been outstanding in terms of software humanization. They offer a lot of creative features on their phones that have been imitated by their competitors.
wish they would buy chrysler and import these under the Chrysler badge
RIP VW
love the size n price,HATE the design
Car will not sell on looks and i do not spend enough time in a car to really care about infotainment, but any functions the infotainment has should just work with large and distinctive buttons, most companies try to turn their large screens into a laptop dispay, which might be ok when parked but a misapplied formula when driving. Just my 2cents.
Bro sitting in that back sot looking like a tiny child
Sean's 5 ft 11 or 180cm, he mentioned this in almost every video when comes to the space (not in this one sadly)
@@jeffery7281 that's a good hight in general and quite tall in China
Something about those seats in that car even the front makes him look small
Being able to mirror your phone isn't such a great software feature for a software defined car. Things like active liquid thermal management of the battery and motors, one pedal drive with energy regenaraton and traction control are a must and those you don't measure in frames per second nor in phone mirroing capabilities. Did I mention a dependable auto steering and driving dynamics too? Software that doesn't fit these purposes only satisfy teen's wishes for showing off and spend their money in a non wisely manner.
That sounds like something a Tesla fanboy would write out of jealousy.
I don't mention centralized thermal management, one-padel mode unless it's missing from the car, because it is standard even on a $15k BYD Dolphin. I did mention traction control in the video but you certainly missed it. Stop your condesending tone and learn.
Not sure how you think the engineers behind havent thought of that or do you see yourself as the only one in the world with a brain?
It's a bit of an ugly car ofcoures it's my opinion. But it's a no for me dawg.
Looks generic and boring. The iD4's software DOES now work by the way.
