PARIS, FRANCE — October 12, 2026 — Geely Auto gave today the new Geely MONJARO EM-i its European premiere at the 2026 Paris Motor Show. The flagship plug-in hybrid SUV combines performance, efficiency, handling, safety, and intelligent comfort in one comprehensive affordable package.

Carrying the theme ‘Performance That Goes Beyond’, the all-new Geely MONJARO EM-i plug-in hybrid is positioned around a broader definition of performance. Rather than focusing solely on power figures, Geely has developed the flagship SUV to deliver confidence across acceleration, highway driving, challenging roads, long-distance travel and everyday family use, ideal for the advanced mainstream customer who wants to go a step further. 

Aiden He, CEO of Geely Brand Europe and VP Strategy & Product at Geely Auto Europe says: “We have high expectations of the Geely MONJARO EM-i in Europe. The Geely MONJARO stands out of the crowd. Not only because of its appearance and strong power figures. The Geely MONJARO has a complete flagship experience — from the way the Geely MONJARO responds to the road, to the confidence provided by its safety systems, the comfort of its cabin and the intelligence of its technology”. 

Power That Goes Beyond 

At the heart of MONJARO EM-i is Geely’s EM-i Super Hybrid system, combining a 1.5T high-efficiency dedicated plug-in hybrid engine with intelligent energy management. 

For drivers, the objective is straightforward: deliver sustained performance when it matters while maintaining efficient use of fuel and electrical energy. 

In its AWD configuration, the total system produces up to 246 kW of combined power and 667 Nm of maximum torque, enabling the Geely MONJARO EM-i to accelerate from 0–100 km/h in 5.8 seconds.The FWD version completes the same sprint in 7.7 seconds. The top speed is 200 km/h.

The Geely MONJARO EM-I plug-in hybrid offers a choice in two (LFP) battery types: an 18.4 kWh battery or the 29.8 kWh battery ensuring an up to 116-kilometre pure electric range (WLTP) and a combined range of up to 922 kilometres.

The e-AWD Intelligent Electric AWD System uses millisecond-level response to distribute power according to driving conditions. During acceleration, highway overtaking and long uphill climbs, the system is designed to provide sustained power while intelligently managing battery preservation, thermal performance and regenerative braking. 

The result is a hybrid system engineered not only for peak performance, but for performance that can be maintained over the course of a journey. 

The Ultra version also supports up to 78 kW fast charging, with approximately 15 minutes required to charge from 30% to 80%, helping reduce charging downtime during longer trips. 

Handling That Goes Beyond 

Performance is not only measured in acceleration. For MONJARO EM-i, Geely has placed equal emphasis on the way the vehicle responds to the road. 

Built on the GEA Evo architecture, the Geely MONJARO EM-i supports front- and rear-axle decoupling and torque vectoring, providing the foundation for its intelligent all-wheel-drive system, with faster data transmission, high safety and multiple powertrains. 

A Continuous Damping Control (CCD) Suspension System responds in as little as 20 milliseconds, continuously adapting damping characteristics to road conditions. Drivers can select between Comfort, Standard and Sport suspension settings, alongside six driving modes. 

The engineering objective is a balanced driving character: stability at highway speeds, confidence through continuous corners, controlled responses on challenging surfaces and a comfortable ride over long distances. 

Confidence That Goes Beyond 

The Geely MONJARO EM-i's approach to performance extends into active and passive safety. The SUV combines a high-strength body structure with seven airbags, Geely’s Battery Safety System and a comprehensive suite of driver-assistance technologies. The vehicle offers 13 Level 2 active-safety features, nine driving-comfort assistance functions and a 540° transparent chassis view, designed to provide drivers with greater awareness around and beneath the vehicle. 

The vehicle is prepared for a 5-star Euro NCAP testing result. Geely has also subjected the vehicle to 21 full-scenario extreme-condition safety tests, while the hybrid architecture provides an additional layer of system redundancy, with the engine and electric motor capable of serving as mutual sources of propulsion. Together, these technologies are designed to provide confidence across everyday driving as well as more demanding conditions, including wet roads, high-speed travel and challenging terrain. 

Comfort That Goes Beyond Space 

Inside, Geely MONJARO EM-i combines flagship dimensions with a focus on what Geely calls ‘Intelligent Comfort’ — using technology not simply as a collection of features, but as a means of making every journey easier and more relaxing. 

Measuring approximately 4.8 metres in length with a 2,845 mm wheelbase, Geely MONJARO EM-i offers up to 130 mm of second-row knee room. 

Its luggage compartment provides 633 litres of capacity, expanding to 2,183 litres, while a maximum longitudinal storage length of 2.8 metres and 34 storage compartments add everyday practicality. 

The seating system features 11-layer composite SPA seats, with eight massage points, six massage modes and three intensity levels. Front-seat heating and ventilation further support long-distance comfort. 

Cabin refinement has received equal attention. Double-pane laminated front windows, acoustic materials covering approximately 89% of the cabin and 23 airtightness optimisations contribute to reduced road and wind noise, while Geely reports a 45% reduction in tyre noise. 

An Intelligent Flagship Cabin 

The Geely MONJARO EM-i cockpit combines physical comfort with a connected digital  environment. A 15.4-inch centre display, 12.3-inch instrument cluster and 25.6-inch Head-Up Display place key information within the driver’s field of view. 

The Flyme Auto in-vehicle infotainment system supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while the Flyme Sound audio system combines 16 speakers with a 1,000-watt amplifier and 7.1.2 immersive surround sound. 

Voice recognition supports 18 languages across four audio zones, with control of up to 600 functions. An integrated Intelligent Large Language Model further expands the vehicle’s intelligent interaction capabilities. 

The result is a cabin designed around a simple principle: technology should reduce the number of things the driver has to think about, rather than add to them. 

Three Dimensions of ‘Performance That Goes Beyond’. 

The MONJARO name is inspired by Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak, reflecting a philosophy built around the balance of power and restraint, ambition and composure. Its EM-i Super Hybrid powertrain applies the same principle to electrified driving, intelligently balancing performance and efficiency to make power delivery more responsive while reducing the effort associated with long journeys.
