Geely has filed a long-range version of its Galaxy A7 plug-in hybrid sedan with China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), signaling plans to expand the model’s lineup with a larger battery and extended pure-electric driving capability.
According to the regulatory filing, the long-range Galaxy A7 PHEV features a 28.3 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery, delivering a CLTC-rated pure-electric range of 175 kilometers. This represents a notable increase over the existing Galaxy A7 variants, which are offered with 8.5 kWh and 18.4 kWh batteries providing shorter electric-only ranges.

The long-range version retains the exterior design introduced with the Galaxy A7 PHEV that debuted in China in August 2025. The model features a closed front fascia, full-width daytime running lights, a fastback-style roofline and a concealed exhaust layout, consistent with the Galaxy sub-brand’s design language. Dimensions remain unchanged, with the sedan measuring 4,918 mm in length, 1,905 mm in width and 1,495 mm in height, and riding on a 2,845 mm wheelbase.
The larger battery increases curb weight to 1,775 kilograms, compared with 1,599 kg for the base 70 km electric-range version and 1,735 kg for the 150 km variant currently on sale. Other body and chassis specifications listed in the filing are unchanged.

Powertrain details indicate the long-range Galaxy A7 continues to use a 1.5-liter plug-in hybrid engine with a maximum output of 82 kW. MIIT documents did not disclose the electric motor’s output, though the standard Galaxy A7 PHEV uses a motor rated at up to 175 kW. The model remains based on Geely’s GEA new-energy architecture and uses the EM AI Super Hybrid 2.0 system.
The standard Galaxy A7 PHEV, launched in August 2025, is priced between 89,800 yuan and 125,800 yuan and competes in China’s mid-size plug-in hybrid sedan segment against models such as BYD’s Qin L DM-i. Under the CLTC cycle, fuel consumption for the existing versions is rated at 2.67 L/100 km for the 70 km EV range variants and 2.8 L/100 km for the 150 km versions. Higher-spec variants support DC fast charging, enabling a 30% to 80% charge in about 18 minutes.

However, the regulatory submission is an early step toward commercial approval, suggesting Geely is moving to strengthen the Galaxy A7’s electric-only capability as competition intensifies in China’s plug-in hybrid market.
