Geely Auto Group was founded in 1997 as a subsidiary unit of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group (ZGH). The group manages several leading brands including Geely Auto, Lynk & Co, and Zeekr. The group has five global R&D centers in Hangzhou and Ningbo, China; Gothenburg, Sweden, Coventry, England and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Geely Automobile Holdings Limited is an automobile manufacturer, focusing on development, manufacturing, and sales of passenger vehicles. The Group sells various vehicle models under three brands including Geely, ZEEKR and its joint venture brand, Lynk&Co. It is a subsidiary company holding controlling stakes in Geely Auto, which has been listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange since 2005.
An automobile’s architecture is its core, and Geely is laying the groundwork for the creation of the vehicles of the future by creating sophisticated modular vehicle architectures.
Compact Modular Architecture (CMA) was born at China Euro Vehicle Technology AB (CEVT). More than 2,000 top automotive engineers from 25 countries spent three years devoting to the development of CMA. Since its launch, CMA has won altogether 609 patents, embodying outstanding engineering ingenuity.
It took researchers four years to develop the Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA), with a total investment of over CNY 18 billion, which features a three-in-one layout of the hardware layer, system layer, and ecological layer.
The SEA has the largest bandwidth in the world, covering the design needs of all types of automobiles from segment A to segment E at full sizes; it can provide the most efficient solutions to intelligent electric vehicles and shorten the development period of software-defined vehicles by over 50%.
Equipped with the world’s first “11-in-1 intelligent electric drive system”, which integrates 11 core components—including the motor, electronic control, and decelerator—into just 0.079 cubic meters, it significantly reduces the high center of gravity typical of traditional SUVs and enhances cornering control. On the track, the exclusive GEA chassis and an ultra-low wind resistance of 0.269 Cd ensure greater stability at high speeds, redefining the SUV driving experience.
Focus on the development and continuous improvement of modular architecture and components for the next generation of automobiles.
Based in Hangzhou, China, responsible for the research, development, and testing of vehicles and key components.
Streamline research and development, testing, quality control, supplier collaboration, and independent R&D capabilities for automotive, engine, and transmission systems.
