Geely Galaxy TT: 425 kW and 650 km range for 25,150 euros
The Geely Galaxy TT is a new 5-meter-long electric sports sedan for China’s EV market. The top model, the TT Ultra, has 425 kW of power and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds. Chinese consumers can purchase it for just 25,150 euros. The entry-level model, with 245 kW of power, is available starting at 18,000 euros.
Geely Galaxy is a separate brand in China with its own R&D, marketing, and distribution capabilities. It is positioned just above Geely in terms of luxury. Another difference is that Geely produces a mix of ICE, HEV, and NEV vehicles, while Geely Galaxy is an NEV-only brand.
The gamma line consists of 14 models, ranging from minicars to large SUVs. Sales are performing well. In August, Geely Galaxy sold 76,025 vehicles, ranking fifth among 101 brands with a market share of 4.92%.
The Geely Galaxy TT resembles a liftback sedan but has a regular trunk. Its design is sporty, featuring a notably low and long front end. The front design concept is called “Chasing Light at Dawn”.
The headlights are indeed quite large. Large headlights represent a new-old trend in China. BYD pioneered this approach, and more brands are following suit.
The bumper features active aerodynamics, while the rear has a diffuser-like structure. Geely Galaxy hides a pop-up spoiler in the trunk lid. The TT comes standard with
The interior of the Geely Galaxy TT
The dashboard is quite crowded compared to many other Chinese sedans, offering a variety of colors and materials such as leather, aluminum, and metal. The driver has a 10.2-inch instrument panel with rounded edges and a 25.5-inch AR-HUD in front of them.
The relatively small sports steering wheel features a cool boost button for faster response from the throttle pedal. On the center console, there is a panel with buttons for heating and a push/rotate knob serving as an additional controller for the infotainment system. The speakers of the Flyme Sound audio system are beautifully crafted. The system has 23 speakers and 2000 watts, which is quite modest compared to many other new Chinese cars.
Geely EVA
Eva is Geely’s AI assistant, integrated into the Flyme Auto 2.0 smart cockpit system. The AI can engage in natural conversations, understand context, and control various car functions. Eva is located in a pod atop the 15.4-inch 2.5K screen, similar to Nomi in NIO vehicles. Passengers can dress up Eva with cute hats and caps available at Geely Galaxy dealerships.
The back seat is a pleasant place to sit thanks to the long wheelbase and the large panoramic roof with an area of 1.97 square meters. The seats can be folded all the way back for a relaxed lounge experience.
Who has the most?
Chinese brands are competing to see who can offer the most storage space. The Geely Galaxy TT has a total of 37 cubic feet of storage. The most interesting features include a 12-liter “mobile makeup box” in the dashboard compartment, a 5.2-liter fridge, and a 12-liter drawer under the rear seat. The frunk has a capacity of 110 liters, while the trunk holds 528 liters.

The Geely Galaxy TT Ultra: “Handling by Lotus”.
Geely Galaxy treats its top model, the TT Ultra, almost as a separate vehicle. There’s some validity to this, as the TT Ultra boasts much higher power than the regular TT and a completely different suspension system.
The TT Ultra features AWD and two electric motors that together deliver 425 kW of power and 597 Nm of torque. Its top speed is 210 km/h, and it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds. The TT Ultra is equipped with a 75.2-kWh battery, providing a range of 650 kilometers.
The Geely Galaxy TT Ultra uses a fully aluminum double-wishbone front suspension and a reinforced five-link rear suspension. The Ultra model adds CCD adaptive dampers, hydraulic suspension struts, and Geely’s AI Magic Carpet system. This system scans the road surface ahead of the car and adjusts the damping in milliseconds.
The suspension setup was handled by Lotus, the British brand that is now part of Geely as well. Therefore, the TT Ultra features a special badge on its B-pillar.
Gavan Kershaw, Director of Attributes and Product Integrity at Lotus, was flown in to make the fine-tuning adjustments. Kershaw is a well-known figure within Lotus circles; he is responsible for the handling and driving dynamics of all Lotus models.
ADAS
The Geely Galaxy TT is equipped with Geely’s G-ASD (Qianli Haohan) ADAS system featuring 27 sensors, including a lidar. The base models come with a Horizon Robotics J6M chip offering 128 TOPS, while the top models use an Nvidia Thor-U chip with 700 TOPS.
Prices of the Geely Galaxy TT in China
Chinese sedan buyers can now order the Geely Galaxy TT at Geely Galaxy dealers and experience stores. Consumers need to be cautious, as the TT is not available at regular Geely dealers.
There are four trim levels, three interior color combinations, and eight exterior colors: Copenhagen Nightfall Gray, Maldives Midday Blue, Marrakech Rose Red, Provence Mist Purple, Reykjavik Morning Mist Silver, Santorini Moonlight White, Tromsø Fjord Blue, and Tuscany Olive Green.

The Geely Galaxy TT will also arrive in Europe, first in the UK and possibly in the Netherlands starting in mid-2027.
