Recently, after a period of overwhelming publicity, Geely Galaxy E8 finally released a pre-sale price starting at 188,000 yuan, obviously wanting to leave the suspense until the last moment. However, at the press conference, such as the 1,000 yuan deductible 6,000 yuan deposit expansion rights and the 10,000 yuan renewal rights only for Geely Group's models appeared. The final listing price of the Galaxy E8 is likely to have room to go down.
In terms of product strength, the Galaxy E8 obviously wants to take the high-end route with its appearance size of 5010/1920/1465mm and medium to large body. Even the wheelbase length of 2925mm is 5mm longer than the benchmark model Han EV. . But in terms of rear space performance, since the fastback shape of the Galaxy E8 has achieved a vehicle drag coefficient of 0.199, the final space margin performance has yet to be tested in the field.
At the same time, the 45-inch screen with an effective display area of 1130mm*138mm and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 in-car smart chip are also obvious selling points of the Galaxy E8, which is paired with the NOS Unbounded version of the in-car system. According to the promotion of Galaxy E8, such a wide screen is good for playing games while parking.
As for power, the rear-wheel drive model of the Galaxy E8 will be equipped with a motor with a maximum output of 200kW. The CLTC pure electric cruising range is divided into two types: 550km and 665km. The battery pack suppliers with different cruising ranges are Dongyu Xinsheng and Quzhou Jidian. The four-wheel drive model uses a front motor with a maximum power of 165kW and a rear motor with a maximum power of 310kW. The combined maximum output is as high as 475kW. The battery pack supplier is also Quzhou Jidian, and the CLTC pure electric cruising range is 620km. It is worth noting that only the top-end four-wheel drive model may support 800V ultra-high voltage.
It can be said that although the Galaxy E8 wants to take the high-end route, the differences between different configurations are likely to be quite obvious. Low-end models lower the threshold, while high-end models have comprehensive advanced configurations.
After all, judging from the sales of Geely Galaxy, after the Galaxy L7 set a monthly sales record of 11,117 units in August, sales continued to decline in September, October, and November. In November, the sales volume was 8,473 units. Although the Galaxy L6 is 9 Sales are still climbing after its launch in November, but the sales volume in November was only 5,297 units, while potential rivals such as Roewe D7 and Wuling Starlight have recently begun to exert their strength.
Obviously, if the Galaxy E8 can open up a lot and drive word-of-mouth, it will play a big role in assisting the Geely Galaxy brand. However, if the sincerity of the Galaxy E8 cannot impress the market, it may also have an impact on the Geely Galaxy brand.
