Absolutely. The Atto 3 interior is....ummmmhhhh...controversial to say the least. I was really impressed with the inclusion of features we normally only see on more expensive models. This is the power of these larger OEMs, they can trickle that tech down to lower-end models and keep it affordable.

Thank you so much for the review! So for us 5,7 or 5,8 feet tall guys it will feel like a larger SUV. Would you please let me know if it has adaptive cruise control? How is the foot rent? Is it carpet or does it actually have a nice platform (e.g. plastic, metal or other materials)? Thank you in advance. Btw...I live in Indonesia and its supposed to launch here, do you think for the rain season with floods the ground clearance is good enough?

[@ChinaDriven]

I can't speak to the flood vs the ground clearance. Think you have to wait for it to launch in Indonesia and take a look yourself. It's a chinese "compact crossover," so it's larger than your European or US compact crossovers, since Chinese car segments tend to sit in between their European counterparts and the next size up. Plenty of interior space as well cos it's an EV so more interior space then a traditional ICE crossover of this size. Not sure what you mean by "foot rent"

[@gkasimir]

@ChinaDriven thank you for your feedback. I appreciate that. The foot rest is where you put your foot on which is not using the brake or accelerator pedals.

[@StirfriedGerman]

Sat in one today, I actually came to see the E8 but that proved too small, and the seats are hard + low ceiling in the back and not a hatchback, no wonder sales are sluggish. The E5 is kind of too sensible, it feels big inside, driver seat and position are excellent, the rest is just plain old plain old, a little lackluster and almost outdated except when you consider the price tag. It has a real sunroof, not that cheap slab of glass introduced by Tesla and copied by everyone else, that cooks your head in subtropical climates. Geely's software interface is behind others like Xpeng however, and no English in China, so completely not an option for me, even with my Meizhu phone. Xpeng G6 might not offer English software here, but the AI understands English and responds to voice commands quite well, plus a lot of the menus are icon based, so I'll get that one.

I am curious about the pricing in Thailand. The BYD Atto 3 is very popular here and BYD already lowered the prices significantly. I am driving a BYD Dolphin. I very like it. It has very good quality, but I may need a little larger car. I don't like the current Atto 3. BYD has a very good network. We will see what Geely will doing.

Such a great car for 'the people'. In the Netherlands, the government screams "Everything should be electric" blabla, but if China actually does make a vehicle for all of us middle-class folks, they put tariffs on those "affordable cars" and turn on the road taxes for electric cars again. Again: Only the wealthy people benefitted from the years of zero tax on EV's (They were the first adopters so they got helped out, because it would trigger all car manufacturers to make more electric vehicles. And it actually worked! And what does the government do next? After we paid all the taxes (the middle class) so the rich could buy the first EVs tax free and roadtax free, now Western governments don't allow competition. It was all just a green lie. This is their new way of capitalism: if we lose to the competition, we will make it impossible for our people to buy one from China. It was never for a better world or for all the people. The government today: "We will make the Chinese cars just as expensive as our cars and we will force them to buy Western cars." What about envirement? Suddenly not important anymore? What happened to all "We want zero emissions for our children!" blablabla UGH! I am so sick of all the lies. It clearly was never about helping people make the world more green. Because if the Geely Galaxy E5 would come on the Dutch market for 17.500 euro it would outsell everything. Wasn't that the dream? To go all-electric? To have a zero-emission state?

Strange that BYD is the industry leader given other brands seem to get much more things right than them

[@ChinaDriven]

BYD has led many areas early in this lower price point. It also has a vehicle or in some cases multiple vehicles in each segment. The pure number of new energy vehicles they have at affordable prices is insane. I'd say one of BYD's greatest strengths is also partially a weakness. BYD has massive vertical integration, using its own companies to build nearly all the components it uses. But for example, when the Yuan Plus was launched BYD at that time didn't have its own HUD, so the Yuan Plus nor the Han EV (for example) at that time had no HUD. Once BYD produced its own HUD, then all of a sudden every BYD vehicle seemed to have a HUD. BYD is generally going upmarket. Starting from BYD main brand then producing more expensive brands with higher grade tech. For Geely although they've had cheaper new energy brands like Geometry (now defunct) and Geely Auto main brand (reduced NEVs under this brand in favour of pure NEV brands), Geely has had more expensive NEV, including pure EV brands for longer than BYD, Zeekr for example. So they have been able to trickle down from those higher brands.

[@HAL-rx3bh]

[@mondotv4216]

The battery sizes are almost identical so how does the E5 have more range? Also why are you quoting the Chinese ranges which bear absolutely zero relationship with reality. At the very least we should be quoting WLTP. I just think that this game of one-upmanship has more do to with marketing than anything in the real world. When you showed the shot accelerating off the line you could see the front wheels spin- a traction problem that plagues the Atto 3 as well.

[@ChinaDriven]

Low rolling resistance tires coupled with 300+NM of torque will cause wheel spin for sure. It's common amongst many FWD EVs with this much torque. There isn't a WLTP range given. So can only quote the figures that are available. Rough conversion estimates between CLTC and WTLP don't really hold water. The CLTC is generally much more consistent than the older NEDC, although in some circumstances NEDC figures were closer to WTLP. But generally you'll see between 75-85% of the quoted CTLC, depending how you drive. Lots of highway and expressway the range will be lower. The problem with CTLC is that it has a stronger focus on urban driving, stop start traffic. Which in China makes sense. But for me, in my mind i just compare CTLC of Car A to CLTC of car B. Rather then using it as a real measurement of range. evdb.nz/wltp#:~:text=cycle%20(CLTC).-,CLTC%20vs.,phase%20that%20the%20WLTP%20has).

[@ChinaDriven]

The E5 has a much better efficiency rating than the Atto 3. And as mentioned in the video the Geely AGEIS battery cells are more energy dense then the current BYD Blade batteries. These two things together make a difference.

If you want more depth. It will understeer if pushed, not helped by low rolling resistance tires. The 320Nm will 100% result in wheel spin if you mash the throttle, again not helped by the tires. I simply meant it's what you would expect from a FWD SUV. Though I admit I could have gone into more depth. But really for this segment as I said not many care about the driving dynamics.
