Geely Galaxy E5 must have been no stranger, as early as May I had the honour to participate in the Galaxy E5 static tasting, in June my colleague Hong Bingqing also participated in the Galaxy E5 field performance test drive activities, visible Geely on the Galaxy E5 degree of importance, today we have a dynamic experience together with the Galaxy E5 in the actual performance on the road in the end how to say no more, let's go directly to the test drive! We'll start the test drive directly.
Dynamic experience
Galaxy E5 all adopt single-motor front-drive power form, this test drive model for the Galaxy E5 530km Starship Edition, the maximum power of the electric motor is 218 hp, the maximum torque is 320 Nm. The battery uses Geely's self-developed Shendun short blade battery with a capacity of 60.22kWh, and the CLTC has a pure electric range of 530km.
Galaxy E5 has three driving modes, the tuning between Comfort Mode and Energy Saving Mode is not obvious, the overall power output is more linear, acceleration is relatively soft, and such tuning is more in favour of reducing energy consumption. When the vehicle selects the sport mode, the acceleration of the entire vehicle will be more aggressive, the main difference lies in the front part of the accelerator pedal, the same pedal force and speed can bring a more unrestrained acceleration experience.
The vehicle suspension adopts the front MacPherson-type independent suspension, rear multi-link independent suspension structure, the overall tuning of the comfort orientation, when passing through some potholes and speed bumps suspension up and down suppressed very well, at the same time can filter out the small bumps.

Steering, after all, is located in the city type SUV, steering accuracy and steering force is still acceptable, at the same time, the Galaxy E5 is also equipped with GCSS drive assist steering function, this function is generally configured in the performance car, in the two-wheel drive family car is relatively rare, in the high-speed cornering, you can increase the torque of the outer wheels, reduce the torque output of the inner wheels to help the vehicle complete the better performance of the cornering.
The NVH performance is good, when the speed in the city road 60-70km / h when basically no excess noise into the car, when in the high-speed section of the speed to 120km / h can only hear a small tyre noise.
Our test route was about 100km long, with 60% of highway and 40% of city roads, using Comfort Mode throughout, with Kinetic Energy Recovery adjusted to Auto, and the air conditioning set to 23°C Auto, resulting in a final apparent power consumption of 12.8kWh/100km.
Static Review
The Galaxy E5 is a globalised model under the GAE platform, and apart from some Galaxy family elements, it does not carry out too much stylised design, but is fully in line with the public's aesthetics, and such design is in line with the positioning of the globalised model.
Compared with the same class, the Galaxy E5 body size is not large, belonging to a standard compact SUV size, thanks to the CTB battery body integration technology, so that the body and battery at the same height, which can be very good to reduce the seating position, so that the rear floor is flat, even if the wheelbase of only 2750mm, the rear seat space is not at all lose a B-class car experience.
● Simple interior and good car navigation
Galaxy E5's interior design is very simple, equipped with Flyme Auto car system, its core carries a domestic 7nm car chip - Dragon Eagle One, the manufacturer said that its ability and 8155 at the same level, there is no problem with the smoothness of the car, such as daily voice control and the execution of commands for it to cope with it with complete ease. At the same time Flyme Auto and Meizu mobile phone for the depth of customisation, mobile phone applications can be projected onto the car screen, the display form can also be freely switched, the feeling is like using a Pad.
Galaxy E5 also has a very fun point, support for external speakers function, not only can interact with pedestrians outside the car, but also can be customised to record audio for external playback, this feature is still very playable. Not only that, the external speakers also support music playback, listening to beautiful music while camping, making life more enjoyable.
Galaxy E5 supports 3.3kW external discharge function, but does not come with the car with external discharge connector or plug board, this requires us to go to the official mall or 4S shop to buy, the price is 409 yuan, many partners must feel that this is the E5 for the reduction of the allocation, but remember that "wool comes out of the sheep's body", or according to their own needs to buy, after all, not every partner! Purchase, after all, not every little friend can be used.
Summary
The dynamic performance of the Galaxy E5 is generally more inclined to family cars, and not as sporty as other Geely models we've tested before, especially in the calibration of the chassis and steering tuning, plus our static review of the performance of the cross-grade space performance and very good use of the Flyme Auto in-car system are all the competitive advantages of the Geely Galaxy E5, and the Geely Galaxy E5 pricing has been announced by the time of publication. E5 price, the car's guide price in the 112,800-148,800 range, in the release of the official said, in the October 1 before the completion of the large fixed lock order users, will enjoy an additional 3,000 yuan of first enjoy the limited time subsidy, its limited time first enjoy the price of 109,800-145,800 yuan. Personally, I still recommend buying the 530km Starship Edition, not only can you get a higher range, but also added L2 level assisted driving and comfortable seat massage function, you may want to go to the shop to experience it for yourself if you like this car. Do you think this Galaxy E5 meets your expectations?
