The fifth-generation Geely Emgrand car photos released, with upgrades in body size and power system

[PCauto] Geely has recently unveiled the official images of its 5th-generation Emgrand sedan. The new model embodies the brand's latest 4.0 design language, featuring comprehensive upgrades to its dimensions, powertrain, and exterior styling.

Having achieved cumulative sales of over 4 million units in China, the new-generation Emgrand aims to further solidify its competitive stance in the sedan market through enhanced product prowess.

​​The Fifth-Generation Geely Emgrand Features a New Design​​

In terms of exterior design, the new Emgrand features a vertical waterfall-style, shield-shaped grille. The 12 vertical chrome bars within enhance the three-dimensionality of the front fascia.

The slim front headlights incorporate a three-element LED daytime running light (DRL) signature. The main headlight beam boasts a maximum illumination distance of 170 meters.

The rear features a full-width LED taillight bar. Its deep red light sources are designed for enhanced visibility, with a claimed effective range of up to 300 meters, significantly improving safety in rainy and foggy conditions.

A special glossy deep green paint option is available. When paired with 18-inch dual-color turbine-style alloy wheels, it contributes to a more premium overall aesthetic.

The rear adopts a through-type LED taillight assembly, with built-in ultra-red light sources that have a 300-meter penetration capability, significantly improving driving safety in rainy and foggy weather conditions.

The new car offers a special glossy deep green paint option, paired with 18-inch dual-color whirlwind wheels for an overall more premium visual effect.

The Emgrand's Body Dimensions Expanded

The new generation Emgrand measures 4815×1885×1480mm (L×W×H) with a wheelbase extended to 2755mm, representing a comprehensive improvement over the 4th generation model (4638×1820×1460mm, wheelbase 2650mm).

The 1885mm width of the vehicle reaches the standard of mid-size sedans, allowing the rear seats to comfortably accommodate three adults.

The boot volume has been optimized to accommodate a 28-inch suitcase along with two carry-on suitcases simultaneously.

Equipped with a 1.5-Liter Turbocharged Engine

In terms of the powertrain, the new model is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, replacing the current 1.5L naturally aspirated engine in the Chinese market. The maximum power has been increased to 133kW (181 horsepower), with a peak torque of 290N·m, paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission.

This power combination allows the vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.9 seconds, with a WLTC combined fuel consumption of 6.2L/100km.

To meet different market demands, some models will continue to offer the option of a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power output of 93kW.

The Proton S70, built on the same platform as the Emgrand, performs well in Malaysia

Notably, the Proton S70, built on the same platform as the Emgrand, has achieved excellent performance in the Malaysian market.

This model is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, along with technology features such as a fully digital instrument cluster and a touch-control central screen, with a market price range of 73,800-94,800 MYR.

The technical collaboration model between Geely and Proton is yielding results in the Southeast Asian market. Based on the past designs of the Emgrand and S70, it is possible that the fifth-generation Emgrand could become the direction for the next-generation S70 update.
