The 1 millionth mass-produced Geely Xingyuan rolled off the line today at the Geely Automobile Xiangtan Manufacturing Base.

From the 1st to the 1 millionth unit, the Geely Xingyuan took only 24 months, with an average of 1 car rolling off the line every 55 seconds.

Looking globally, a scale of 1 million units usually takes three to five years or even longer, and it is mostly the accumulation of multiple models under the brand.
At the beginning of the launch in 2024, the Geely Xingyuan reshaped the standard for A0-level pure electric compact cars around users' real pain points with "Five Major Disruptive Innovations" in space, intelligence, range, handling, and safety. The 70L front trunk, CATL battery cells, rear-drive independent suspension, etc., are standard across the series. Product configurations prioritize user experience and revolve around users' high-frequency usage scenarios. Once the standard was set, peers followed and optimized, and A0-level compact cars thus moved from "good enough" to "high quality and good price".
Million Units Rolled Off Line in Two Years: Geely Xingyuan Refreshes Global Acceleration
As a leader in the A0-level compact car market, the Geely Xingyuan has firmly secured the sales champion title across all categories without qualifiers since its global launch, relying on solid product strength and continuously accumulated user reputation, becoming a "phenomenal" hit product in the Chinese car market. It became the sales champion of all-category vehicles in 2025. In the first half of 2026, cumulative sales exceeded 249,000 units, a 21% year-on-year increase, firmly ranking at the top of the sales list for all-market vehicles in the first half. Entering the second half, the explosive power of the Geely Xingyuan became even more shocking, with sales breaking 60,000 for two consecutive months in August and September, becoming the only model on the current market to break 60,000 sales for two consecutive months. Not only did it achieve a gap-leading position in the A0-level pure electric track, but it also continued to top the sales list of all categories in the Chinese car market.
While leading the way domestically, the global map of the Geely Xingyuan is also accelerating expansion. Currently, the Geely Xingyuan has landed in more than 30 countries worldwide and has successively achieved the top electric car sales in Thailand, the first place in pure electric vehicles in Jordan, and the second place in pure electric vehicles in Mexico. In August this year, the Geely Xingyuan opened up markets in Europe and Oceania such as Australia, the UK, and France, becoming Top 2 in exports of Chinese new energy hatchback models in the first half of 2026.
The Geely Automobile Xiangtan Manufacturing Base Behind "1 Million Units Rolled Off Line in 24 Months"
The Geely Automobile Xiangtan Manufacturing Base relies on 40 years of underlying technology accumulation and global system capabilities of the Geely Group. It has deeply cultivated Hunan for twenty years, giving birth to multiple million-unit models successively, and has now been upgraded to a global manufacturing base that emphasizes both new energy vehicles and export vehicles. Under the double-shift production mode, the factory can roll off one whole vehicle every 55 seconds on average; in 2025, automotive production and sales exceeded 640,000 units/sets, setting a new historical record. The intelligent manufacturing system and full-process quality control provide a solid guarantee for the quality consistency of the 1 million Geely Xingyuan units. The record of "1 million units rolled off line in 24 months" is not only a manifestation of speed but also a commitment to quality.

After Driving 200,000 Kilometers, Geely Xingyuan Performance Indistinguishable from New Car
As the king of sales for all-category vehicles, the confidence of the Geely Xingyuan has never relied on paper parameters, but rather on solid actual product experience.
To verify durability, reliability, and other issues most concerned by users, the Geely Xingyuan partnered with CATARC, using a user vehicle with a mileage of 200,000 kilometers to conduct rigorous tests on range and handling.
This initial generation Xingyuan Dream Edition with a mileage of 200,000 kilometers and a range of 310 km, supported by the standard CATL battery cells, liquid-cooled temperature control system, and full-link energy management across the series, after driving on 60% urban roads and 40% expressway/high-viaduct sections, achieved an actual measured range of 309 km, a range achievement rate of 99.7%, with performance almost indistinguishable from a new car.

After 200,000 kilometers, handling remains stable. Benefiting from the rear-motor rear-wheel drive + multi-link independent suspension and Lotus tuning technology support, this Geely Xingyuan serving for 200,000 kilometers achieved a moose test score of 78.1 km/h, which is very close to the 80.7 km/h score in the new car stage, demonstrating good body stability and controllability.
