2022 Geely Okavango Urban Plus Review | Zigwheels.Ph

[@adnillesorrah6335]

We've just purchased geely okavango for it's very spacious inside. No problem with the third row seats. You just have to request the occupants in the second row to move forward a little. And there's no need to provide usb ports in the third row. Not all passengers are simultaneously charging their phones. For me, it's the best buy for us as we love to travel. True to what they say, okavango is a combination of an suv, crossover and mpv. Price is just right, being high-tech and hybrid vehicle. 👍👍👍

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

Congrats on the new car! We're envious of your coding exemption being a mild hybrid!

[@markchan2512]

The most underated reviewer, the best for me and not only because of the torture test 9:20 which is quite a big help for families shopping for a spacious vehicle but detailed driving experience by the man, Roy Robles as well.

[@RealRoyRobles]

The dreaded torture test is certainly something that keeps me up at night. I wake up sweating with night terrors! But I comments like yours let me know that it is all worth it!!

[@rael_pio]

Great review bro! Simple and easy to watch, not trying hard to sound smart or funny. Very informative and helpful comments. We just test driver this car and will buy tomorrow. I disagree with the space in the 3rd row, I'm 6ft tall and it has plenty of space for me with a slight adjustment of the 2nd row seats. Keep it up!!

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

Thank you for the review of our review! We're excited for your new car, congratulations!

[@iamqadri]

Awesome review. Hello from Malaysia~~

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

Thanks for the love from abroad!

[@GS-sh4kb]

they key to the 3rd row seats is to move forward the 2nd row seat 1 notch and recline the 3rd row backrest.

[@gregtudanca.]

That hilux though 👌 2:46

[@gemmojapitana2320]

there is a reason why you see so many of these on the road.. when it was cheap. Now your ubran plus' price at 1.765M is already knocking at the SUV price range. This simply can't compete with the next generation everest trend model at 1.799M. You can't say it's cheap enough to compete with other 7 seater cars in the market like the expanders, toyota rush, Veloz. It made more sense when the Okavango was priced at 1.2M when no one else can compete with it.

[@lantaw1590]

Real talk lng.. Na drive ko yung rush and expander.. Lintik wala sa kalingkingan ni okavanggo yan.. Para sa akin, fortiner, terra, montero ang katapatan ni oka... Talo pa ni oka halos lahat.. Sibterra lng mejo panapat sa comfort riding

[@CarlaJane-CharleeCraeSantos]

Does the 360 camera record?

[@melvinrimorin7840]

It's right there in the pricepoint of the Innova now, and rightfully so. I think it is trying to compete directly with the Innova. It has the size, the power, more tech and better space management. But I agree that it is a lot more expensive now than it first launch. Well, we need to consider inflation and all other factors now. That being said, I don't think it's competing with compact MPVs like the Ertiga or the Xpander. It is targeting a different market. Is it still a good value? Maybe not as good as before but still that price is warranted for all the features it has. I've seen Geely in showrooms. Fit and finish is quite solid. Could be a good consideration if you're looking for a larger than usual 7-seater MPV/crossover.

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

Indeed, it does feel like the Okavango is lined up against a whole lot of competitors both above and below its price range

[@manuelabella2589]

pag naka tiklop ba passenger seat makahiga ba 6'4 sa loob na tuwid ang paa? 😁

[@mototelic]

It's possible but I highly doubt it! As you can see at 4:21, with my 5'10" frame there may be a little room for 6'4" but just barely

[@kentstructures4388]

Okavango lost its luster after its SRP increased by 40%.. More families opted for the more practical MPVs like the Expander, xl7, and the tech loaded Veloz. And now with the upcoming FWD unibody Innova, the okavango might be left behind.

[@techshortpants]

the lack of mainstream ADAS, for that price one could just forego Okavango and go for the Cherry Tiggo Pro 8 2.0L AWD (ADAS, Adaptive Cruise control, Low speed follow, paddle shifters, 6 drive modes, all wheel drive on 254HP and 390Nm of torque) AND BETTER after sales and parts + warranty

[@stphnmrk1]

Where is your review of montero sport?

[@mindfreeze0838]

I think comparing this with either a xl7 or xpander cross and then with something like a Fortuner or Monty would be a good comparo. Its on the more expensive side of MPV's but its feature set and dimensions are more in the PPV side of things. I thinks its good if youre hauling large and oddly shaped cargo on occasion and less than 6 people. Also im a bit disappointed in that fuel economy for a mild hybrid but its hauling all that mass with a 1. 5l 3 cylinder( which love to drink in fuel when you open them up).

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

The Okavango was definitely one of the most load-friendly MPV/SUV/PPV(?) we've reviewed so far. Getting that bike in there was quite easy!

[@yassmohd2539]

Proton X90. Malaysia. Nice car. The price also nice. 😅😊

[@syamim_7]

is this the upcoming proton x90?

[@qamarulnazmi5578]

Yes

[@alfcastelo]

Is this exempted on the number coding? EVIDA LAW?

[@ednis32]

1.5million will get you near Japanese SUV pricing with the added bonus of a stable and established dealer network, not hating at all it just needs to be mentioned. I have driven one and it really was amazing back when it was 1.3million, at the current prices it's knocking on some serious competition, tho in the tech side of things it has an upper hand.

[@RealRoyRobles]

You're absolutely right. With Geely slowly proving itself to be quite a reliable brand with solid offerings, though, I think it's starting to give more established brands something to think about. Competition is always a good thing and I'm glad that the new players are starting to get better and better!

[@christiandior926]

Agree, our family could have considered this but now IMO the price makes it a risky buy.

[@Kuyabernz15]

is it exempted also in coding ?

[@theanonymousfanatic]

I think I found our new future car

[@jessiejhames973]

hi!can you please find out if this okavango is coding exempted based on evida law.

[@GS-sh4kb]

I find the 2nd row ac fan inadequate- the 3rd row ac fan is weirdly much stronger.

[@m99nAndR4indrops]

Hi Roy! Sorry it's me again! Which would you prefer, Geely Okavango or Chery Tiggo 8 Pro? I'm so confused! Heeelp!

[@mntapjae2643]

Toyota Vios suit for yoy

[@redacejohn12345]

try the Azkarra Luxury 🙂

[@alesterpadua7884]

A lot had been waiting for the Suzuki Ertiga Hybrid in the PH. But guess what? It already had an alternative in the PH which is this Geely Okavango Urban Plus

[@youtubewatcher7265]

I mean almost 1.8m for the urban plus variant. I'm sure ertiga hybrid won't even reach 1.4m

[@alesterpadua7884]

@@youtubewatcher7265 but it uses the same technology and a lot more power

[@youtubewatcher7265]

@@alesterpadua7884 we'll see when ertiga hybrid is also available, but the better car is definately the urban plus

[@zachfox1027]

@@alesterpadua7884 but the ertiga is not going for power, we always say with power comes great fuel consumption haha. Ertiga aims to have just enough power to seat 7 people while being fuel efficient, besides, Okavango competition is more like a mpv like innova while the ertiga competes with rush, xpander, livina, avanza

[@RealRoyRobles]

The Ertiga will certainly be a more affordable and smaller option than the Okavango. TBH, when I first saw the Okavango, it was just so bland, like a loaf of bread that I never had high hopes for it, but after testing it out, it makes alot of sense on so many levels.

[@gregorias-i3z]

This is exempted for coding?

[@BossPau]

Still no apple carplay and android auto. At that price point, might as well go for everest entry variant. Price increase ruined it.

[@karlg715]

Everybody who owns geely already have it for free, others install even voice command in their unit.

[@luzemmanuelluz5]

It's easy to have it modified DIY and FREE. :D

[@jesiequinto4083]

I think you got the wrong pricing. They are over priced now.

[@makyu9176]

The newly released 2023 okavango in China will justify the price increase but for this previous pre face-lift unit, not really

[@kukuku786]

Your red nikes are winning/stealing the attractive scene. 😂

[@codelessunlimited7701]

When it launched, 1.5m SUVs Chinese automaker seems overpriced even with loaded features because for its new guy in the block. Now, they overloaded the price of this vehicle, seems to me they trying to jack up every buyers of the vehicles. They haven't build a supply chain in the country, what a nasty business deal for anyone buying the brand.

[@osmanjailani447]

Kemaihhh

[@monching6919]

If you're a buying a car with this price range just better wait for Innova non hybrid to come out nxt yr or just get the Ford everest base variant.

[@Bongskiman]

Mas kakasya ka sa likod kung inayos muna ninyo yung pagka recline ng 3rd row. Mas magiging malapit sa katotohanan.

[@Batangs-gp2uy]

This is now just overpriced

[@KenshinHimura23]

I agree. It was value for money before the price increase. For almost same amount of money, I will opt for pick-up based suv which is more suitable here in the province. For me the new Ford Everest Trend variant price at 1.8m is a better choice than this.

[@evilshep1581]

14:37

[@mindfreeze0838]

Not quite, its cargo space compares with things like the Monty and Fortuner but its priced as a MPV. If you look at it that way it makes alot of sense. For the spec youre getting i dont see going for a traditional ppv. The base model of its competitors in that class are pricier and dont have as many features

[@johnasi4973]

Yup as of now its overpriced because of its hype. I believe its price last year was 1.5 or 1.6 mil for the top variant

[@djdelarosa25]

@@KenshinHimura23 Yes, get a PPV and suffer with the ride quality and lack of refinement.

Nice car but when i talked to someone working in their service department,the downside of this car is the parts, when something breakdown parts are veryhard to find. Not good for a long run. Over price and made in china. If im gonna spend more than a million for a car i would just buy toyota, honda, or other brands thats already in the market for many years. Be smart buddy.
