Including Galaxy, the Geely brand recorded November sales of 246,526 vehicles, up 29.45% year on year and 0.42% from October. Within the wider group, premium EV brand Zeekr delivered a record 28,843 vehicles, rising 6.78% from a year earlier and 34.64% from October, while Lynk & Co delivered 35,059 vehicles, up 7.28% year on year but down 12.82% from October.

Geely Auto also exported 42,091 vehicles in November, an increase of 28.27% from a year earlier and 1.26% from October, reflecting continued expansion into overseas markets.
The sales growth comes as Geely expands its core brand footprint in Europe. The company has recently launched new models in Italy, including the battery-electric Geely EX5 and the Starray EM-i plug-in hybrid SUV, adding to its broader push across Europe, Oceania and other global markets.
Financial performance has also strengthened. Last month, Geely Auto reported a sharp rise in third-quarter earnings after strong sales pushed revenue to a new high, according to a filing with the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Net income attributable to shareholders rose 59% year on year to RMB 3.82 billion ($538 million), while quarterly revenue climbed 27% to a record RMB 89.2 billion.

The compact SUV is offered in four variants with discounted starting prices ranging from RMB 95,800 to RMB 123,800 and features dimensions of 4,740 mm in length, 1,905 mm in width and a 2,755 mm wheelbase.
