Market-Leading Pricing Places the Geely EX5 as a New Option for Consumers
The Geely EX5 is priced from $40,990 (drive away) for the entry-level Complete version and $44,990 for the top-of-the-line Inspire. It thus brings with it the title of Australia’s most affordable mid-size electric SUV, only narrowly eclipsed by the smaller BYD Atto 3. This level of pricing puts EX5 on par with popular conventional middle-angle petrol, diesel and hybrid SUVs so as to aid the switch for mainstream car market customers from petrol or diesel to battery power electric.
Priced at just $40,900, the EX5’s cost is absolutely on par with both the DEWOO SAGA HONOR-5 (US $53,900) and the BYD SEATTLE-7 (US $54,990), which cost in excess of US $51,000 under local regulations from overseas makers like Chery Autos ($45,888). Even the established Toyota RAV4 Hybrid sells for less than $34,000, but then pressure comes from the Geely Legend due to aggressive competitive pricing strategy.
Very Competitive Specifications for the Price Point
It is not only price in which EX5 is better than the rest. Both versions have the same single-motor, front-wheel-drive layout and produce a respectable 160kW of power and 320 Nm of torque. The electric motor is powered by a 60.2kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, meaning that for a complete package with two upper-level engines, included everything except the instrument panel, upper console and frame which we will cover in a later section, this car has comfortably achieved an EV-certified road range of 430 km. (18-inch wheels.) The Inspire, with 19-inch wheels, did even better: up to 410km.
High energy use of between 15.8 and 16.6kWh/100km means the vehicle can turn itself off sooner. It is as close as you can get to real-life range performance
The vehicle also has 3.3kW vehicle-to-load (V2L) technology and 6kW vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) capability; this allows it to power external devices or even provide emergency charging to other electric vehicles
For its design, the new EX5 has a size of 4615mm in length and 1901mm in width with a 2750mm wheelbase. It is approximately equivalent to the popular Toyota RAV4 in terms of dimensions but sits upon a wider track and has longer wheelbase for better cabin space. Practical people
Premium Features Without the Premium Price Tag
Geely did not scrimp on features with the EX5 despite market positioning. Even the entry-level Complete model comes equipped with such standard safety items as LED headlamps, 18-inch alloy wheels, eight speaker sound system, and a 15.6-inch central touchscreen. Then there is the latest safety technology, including adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist and blind spot monitoring along with autonomous emergency brakes.
The next version up from there, the Inspire, has luxury features like A panoramic sunroof, an all new 13.4-inch head-up display, a 16-speaker premium audio system, front seat ventilation and front passenger seats that can be reclined and feature leg rests so as to offer a unique driving experience. Although there is no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto compatibility on the car’s initial release, Geely has promised free software upgrades which will include Apple CarPlay arriving in July 2025 and Android Auto later that year.
Strong Warranty Coverage Offers Peace of Mind
In dealing with long-term reliability concerns, Geely has committed comprehensive warranty coverage for the EX5. It covers all areas of the vehicle and includes a seven-year, unlimited-kilometer vehicle warranty; an eight-year, unlimited-kilometer battery warranty; up to seven years’ free roadside assistance from Geely servicing centers. You can be sure that the EX5 is safe too: ANCAP gives it a full five-star safety rating.
Strong Innitial Sales and Future Product Outlook
Judging by the sales result and customer reaction it suggests that Australian consumers are finding the good price and rich specs of the EX5 a hit and turning out to be a big winner. Geely announced that they had already received 1,000 orders for the EX5, with 188 registrations in its first month on sale following the cars’ arrival into stock on March 12th this year. Arising from this growing clientele, Geely is now building hundreds of dealerships across Australia and New Zealand.
For the future, Geely has given a public commitment to launch six new models in Australia over the next three years–including a plug-in hybrid version of the EX5. This dominant product offensive clearly indicates that Geely have a long-term stake in the Australian market and intend to be a major player within it.
Financing Options Done Right
In addition to a strong end of financial year sales offer, Geely also gives attractive financing options to make the EX5 even more appealing. A competitive comparison rate of 3.88 percent with no deposit required for a term of 36 months. This financing package also includes premium benefits covering charging, maintenance and other operational elements of ownership. Specific terms and conditions apply respectively.
Making a smooth transition to electric
Geely’s strategy with its most recent EOFY incentives on the EX5 directly addresses the major barriers traditionally holding back electric car uptake in Australia: cost, charging infrastructure and ongoing maintenance concerns.
With the change sweeping Australia, more electric options — not just for sustainability but also lifestyle, technology, and total cost of ownership — are what Lei Li observes. “Our EOFY offer is all about giving buyers the green light to take the leap. The first step is to reduce the friction point by selling your car on your own, then such matters as charging and servicing can easily be overcome.”
Through competitive pricing, generous incentives and reliable warranties mixed with its promise of new products in years to come, Geely has the potential to be taken seriously in Australia’s expanding car market. If you’re thinking about going electric, the 2025 Geely EX5 becomes more compelling still with its limited-time EOFY offer that’s hard to turn down.
In particular, the $2,000 trade-in bonus helps to solve an important practical obstacle preventing many people from buying an environmentally-friendly vehicle. By simplifying and adding extra funds to this process, Geely is paving the way for Australians to speed up their journey towards electric mobility.
With electric vehicle sales in Australia continuing to grow, a well-timed promotion such as that from Geely may well be able to yield its own share in market during a crucial time for consumer trend. Whether such aggressive tactics will form the basis for long-term success remains anybody’s guess, but one thing is for sure: Geely has arrived in Australia with a serious appetite and players across both electric car conventional vehicle segments would do well to take note.
