Geely: A Global Automotive Powerhouse – And Why Now Is the Time to Look Closer

Geely is no longer a name quietly operating behind the scenes of the global automotive industry. It is now one of the most influential car manufacturers in the world, shaping the future of electric mobility, vehicle technology, and modern design.

Latest news: special offers are now available on selected Geely vehicles through Silverstone Leasing, making this an ideal moment to explore what the brand has to offer.

A Brand That Has Redefined Modern Automotive Growth

Founded in China in the mid-1980s, Geely Auto Group began life far removed from car manufacturing. Its transition into the automotive world came in the late 1990s, when it became one of China’s first privately owned car manufacturers.

What followed was a period of rapid and highly strategic growth. Rather than focusing solely on volume, Geely invested heavily in engineering expertise, safety innovation, and long-term technology development. A defining moment came in 2010 with the acquisition of Volvo Cars, which instantly placed Geely on the global automotive map and demonstrated its long-term ambitions.

Since then, the group has continued to expand internationally, developing advanced vehicle platforms and investing heavily in electrification and intelligent mobility

Geely’s Focus on Electric and Hybrid Technology

Electrification sits at the heart of Geely’s strategy. The manufacturer has committed significant resources to developing dedicated electric platforms designed to improve efficiency, safety, and everyday usability.

This approach has resulted in vehicles that feel purpose-built rather than adapted — with strong real-world driving range, intuitive infotainment systems, and a level of standard equipment that often surpasses more established rivals.
