Geely's Galactic E5 Debuts: A Leap in Battery Technology?

On August 3, 2024, Geely will globally launch its latest electric vehicle – the Galaxy E5, showcasing significant advancements in battery technology.

The Galaxy E5 is equipped with Geely’s self-developed Shield Dagger battery. After 921 charge-discharge cycles, it still maintains 90.5% health, with energy density reaching 192Wh/kg. It has high safety, long lifespan, fast charging capabilities, and performs well in low-temperature environments. The Shield Dagger battery has a cycle life of 3,500 times, which can support a mileage of over 1 million kilometers.

Geely’s investment in the battery sector has exceeded 110 billion RMB, establishing a complete self-researched industry chain from lithium ore reserves to battery recycling.

The GEELY Galaxy E5 will debut globally on August 3, 2024. This brand-new pure electric SUV is equipped with the Galaxy Flyme Auto intelligent cockpit system, providing users with intelligent and humane driving experiences. The Galaxy Flyme Auto intelligent cockpit integrates multiple smart features.

In terms of safety, the Shield Dagger battery has adopted CTB battery body integration technology, enhancing the structural strength and safety of the battery pack. The Shield Dagger battery has passed the ‘8-pin pierce’ and true bullet firing tests at China Automotive Center, proving its safety and reliability under extreme conditions.

The propulsion performance data of the GEELY Galaxy E5 is an acceleration of 6.9 seconds for 100 kilometers, with a braking distance of 35 meters per 100 kilometers.

The GEELY Galaxy E5 is equipped with a self-developed G-TCS all-weather driving anti-skid system. This system intelligently adjusts the driving force to maintain good grip and stability under all road conditions.

The GEELY Galaxy E5 will be produced at the Guiyang Flash Assembly Factory. This factory uses Geely’s newly self-developed MES system, enabling co-line production of various products.

In the field of battery recycling, Geely has gradually formed an industry alliance recycling model centered on the main factory, promoting the construction of a green, environmentally friendly, energy-saving, and sustainable ecological chain system. Geely’s battery recycling mechanism consists of upstream battery recycling, midstream repair and cascade use, and downstream scene application.The cruising range of the GEELY Galaxy E5 is 440 km and 530 km, the Aegis Shortsword battery is applicable in areas such as passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, and energy storage systems.
