Yet after spending time with it, one thing becomes clear: Geely understands exactly what many UAE buyers are looking for right now. It\u2019s got long range, low running costs, plenty of technology, comfortable ride quality, great road manners, and enough space to handle family duties without complaint.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio  is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper video-seo-youtube-embed-wrapper\"><div class=\"video-seo-youtube-player\" data-id=\"eYfE1GNJQ68&#038;t\"><\/div><\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>Priced from AED 89,900, the EX5 EM-i enters one of the most competitive segments in the market. The impressive part is that it doesn&#8217;t feel like a car built for that price bracket. Read on to know the how and why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-design-clean-modern-amp-efficient\"><strong>Design: Clean, Modern &amp; Efficient<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-front\"><strong>Front<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The front end is clean and contemporary, featuring sleek full-width LED daytime running lights and slim headlamps. You don\u2019t get a grille because it\u2019s electrified, resulting in a cleaner front-end design. You&#8217;ll also notice Geely&#8217;s new NEV badge replacing the traditional logo. It&#8217;s a subtle detail, but one that differentiates the brand&#8217;s new-energy vehicles from its conventional models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171254\/geely-ex5-emi-design-front-styling-1-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Geely EX5 EM-i Design: Front-End Styling\" class=\"wp-image-90544\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171254\/geely-ex5-emi-design-front-styling-1-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171254\/geely-ex5-emi-design-front-styling-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171254\/geely-ex5-emi-design-front-styling-1-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171254\/geely-ex5-emi-design-front-styling-1-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171254\/geely-ex5-emi-design-front-styling-1-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171254\/geely-ex5-emi-design-front-styling-1.webp 1544w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-side-profile-nbsp\"><strong>Side Profile<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Viewed from the side, the wraparound lighting design becomes more apparent. The front and rear light signatures visually stretch the vehicle, giving it a more sophisticated appearance.&nbsp; The 19-inch alloy wheels feature unique blade-inspired designs that also contribute to aerodynamic efficiency.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rear\"><strong>Rear<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the rear, a full-width LED light bar creates a premium look, while the overall design remains clean and uncluttered. In fact, the EX5 EM-i looks almost identical to the fully electric EX5 EV. The only visible cues that set it apart are the EM-i badging and a discreet exhaust outlet tucked underneath the rear bumper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171300\/geely-ex5-emi-design-rear-styling-1-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Geely EX5 EM-i Design: Rear Styling\" class=\"wp-image-90546\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171300\/geely-ex5-emi-design-rear-styling-1-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171300\/geely-ex5-emi-design-rear-styling-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171300\/geely-ex5-emi-design-rear-styling-1-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171300\/geely-ex5-emi-design-rear-styling-1-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171300\/geely-ex5-emi-design-rear-styling-1.webp 1481w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-space-is-one-of-the-ex5-em-i-s-biggest-strengths\"><strong>Space Is One Of The EX5 EM-i\u2019s Biggest Strengths<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Geely claims an 84.3% cabin utilisation rate. It sounds like engineering jargon, but basically means, there\u2019s less wasted space compared to most cars around the world. The result is immediately noticeable once you step inside. The EX5 EM-i makes exceptionally efficient use of its footprint, creating a cabin that feels considerably larger than many SUVs in this segment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rear-seat\"><strong>Rear Seat<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Rear-seat passengers benefit from generous legroom and headroom, along with USB-C charging ports and rear air-conditioning vents. Even taller occupants will have little reason to complain. This Practicality extends to the luggage compartment as well.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171341\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-rear-seats-1-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Geely EX5 EM-i Rear Seat\" class=\"wp-image-90562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171341\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-rear-seats-1-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171341\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-rear-seats-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171341\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-rear-seats-1-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171341\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-rear-seats-1-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171341\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-rear-seats-1.webp 1481w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-boot-space\"><strong>Boot Space<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The powered tailgate opens to reveal 428 litres of boot space, which is more than sufficient for a weekend getaway. Fold the rear seats down and capacity expands to 2,065 litres, creating a genuinely useful cargo area for larger items. You could probably even get a small bed in there for one of those camping nights at Qudra Lakes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-cabin-focused-on-technology\"><strong>A Cabin Focused On Technology<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-touchscreen-amp-flyme-audio\"><strong>Touchscreen &amp; FlyMe Audio<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the exterior is all about efficiency, the cabin is all about technology. Geely has packed the EX5 EM-i with enough screens, speakers, connected features, and more. The dashboard follows a minimalist design philosophy, with very few physical buttons. Most functions are controlled through a large <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/infotainment-automotive-terms-guide-evolution-details.html\">15.4-inch central touchscreen<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171346\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-steering-touchscreen-front-seats-1-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Geely EX5 EMi Interior\" class=\"wp-image-90564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171346\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-steering-touchscreen-front-seats-1-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171346\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-steering-touchscreen-front-seats-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171346\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-steering-touchscreen-front-seats-1-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171346\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-steering-touchscreen-front-seats-1-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171346\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-steering-touchscreen-front-seats-1-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171346\/geely-ex5-emi-interior-steering-touchscreen-front-seats-1.webp 1852w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Thankfully, the system is responsive and easy to navigate. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included, ensuring seamless smartphone integration. Audiophiles will appreciate the FlyMe audio system. It features 16 speakers in total, including two speakers integrated into the front-seat headrests and three in the dashboard. The result is an impressively immersive audio experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-geely-app-wireless-charging-amp-ventilated-seats\"><strong>Geely App, Wireless Charging &amp; Ventilated Seats<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The tech extends beyond entertainment. Through the Geely smartphone app, owners can remotely monitor vehicle status, check location, and pre-set the air-conditioning before entering the vehicle. For UAE summers, that last feature alone is worth its weight in gold.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A wireless charging pad is positioned within easy reach, while an additional storage area keeps a second phone secure. Ahead of the driver is a crisp 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster. Complementing it is a 13.8-inch head-up display, one of the brightest systems available in this segment. Together, they provide all the information you need without becoming distracting.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171327\/geely-ex5-emi-front-seats-comfort-1-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Geely EX5 EM-i Seats\" class=\"wp-image-90556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171327\/geely-ex5-emi-front-seats-comfort-1-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171327\/geely-ex5-emi-front-seats-comfort-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171327\/geely-ex5-emi-front-seats-comfort-1-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171327\/geely-ex5-emi-front-seats-comfort-1-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171327\/geely-ex5-emi-front-seats-comfort-1.webp 1297w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The front seats are also ventilated, a feature that quickly becomes essential during the summer.

Geely claims the EX5 EM-i can travel up to 1,065km on a full tank and battery charge under the NEDC cycle. To put that into UAE context, you could drive from Abu Dhabi to Jebel Jais and back while still having plenty of range remaining.

By the end of that period, it had used just over half a tank of fuel. Based on those results, achieving more than 900km on a tank in real-world UAE conditions appears entirely realistic. And that is a remarkable figure for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/car-segments-automotive-terms-guide-hatchback-suv-coupe-details.html\">family SUV<\/a> at this price point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-geely-em-i-hybrid-system-explained\"><strong>The Geely EM-i Hybrid System Explained<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The EX5 EM-i uses a plug-in hybrid powertrain consisting of a 29.8kWh battery pack, an electric motor, and a petrol engine. Depending on driving conditions and selected drive modes, the front wheels can be powered by the electric motor, the petrol engine, or a combination of both.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171351\/geely-ex5-emi-performance1-1-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Geely EX5 EM-i Range &amp; Performance\" class=\"wp-image-90566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171351\/geely-ex5-emi-performance1-1-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171351\/geely-ex5-emi-performance1-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171351\/geely-ex5-emi-performance1-1-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171351\/geely-ex5-emi-performance1-1-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171351\/geely-ex5-emi-performance1-1.webp 1481w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>With sufficient battery charge, the EX5 EM-i can operate in a pure electric mode with a claimed range of up to 170km. For many UAE commuters, that is enough to cover several days of driving without consuming a single drop of petrol. Once the battery charge reduces, the petrol engine works alongside the electric motor to maximise efficiency.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Geely claims a combined fuel-efficiency figure of up to 23.25km\/l. At a time when fuel prices remain a concern for many motorists, that level of efficiency is a major selling point. Owners who regularly charge the battery may find themselves visiting petrol stations far less frequently than expected. Here\u2019s a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/ev-vs-hybrid-uae-which-should-you-buy.html\">comparison between Petrol, EV &amp; Hybrid running costs in the UAE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-it-like-to-drive-the-geely-ex5-em-i\"><strong>What Is It Like To Drive The Geely EX5 EM-i?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The EX5 EM-i prioritises comfort, and it does so exceptionally well. Under normal driving conditions, the cabin remains quiet and refined. Road and wind noise are well controlled, while the suspension does an excellent job of absorbing imperfections in the road surface.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171400\/geely-ex5-emi-performance3-1-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Geely EX5 EM-i Driving Impressions\" class=\"wp-image-90570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171400\/geely-ex5-emi-performance3-1-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171400\/geely-ex5-emi-performance3-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171400\/geely-ex5-emi-performance3-1-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171400\/geely-ex5-emi-performance3-1-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/d3jvxfsgjxj1vz.cloudfront.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/04171400\/geely-ex5-emi-performance3-1.webp 1481w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The ride quality is genuinely impressive. In fact, it feels more mature than many rivals within the segment and even some vehicles positioned above it. Performance is respectable too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combined output stands at 314hp and 387Nm, enabling a 0-100km\/h sprint in 8.2 seconds. Those numbers won&#8217;t trouble performance SUVs, but the immediate response provided by the electric motor makes the EX5 EM-i feel more eager than the figures suggest. Whether merging onto highways or overtaking slower traffic, there is ample performance available when needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-geely-ex5-em-i-spec-sheet\"><strong>Geely EX5 EM-i Spec Sheet<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Powertrain<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1.5L 4-cylinder + Single Electric Motor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Combined Max Power<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">314hp<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Combined Peak Torque<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">387Nm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Battery Capacity<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">29.8kWh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Pure EV Range<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">170km (Claimed NEDC Range)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Combined Range<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1,065km (Claimed NEDC Range)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Wheel Size<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">19-inches<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Length<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4,740mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Width<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1,905mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Height<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">1,685mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Wheelbase<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">2,755mm<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">*<em>Specs listed are for the extended range Max+ trim available in the UAE<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-geely-ex5-em-i-safety-features-fully-equipped\"><strong>Geely EX5 EM-i Safety Features: Fully Equipped<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Geely has not cut corners when it comes to safety. The EX5 EM-i comes equipped with six airbags, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/adas-system-automotive-terms-guide-details.html\">adaptive cruise control<\/a>, a 540-degree camera system, and a comprehensive suite of active safety technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The specifications list includes numerous driver-assistance systems and 16 ADAS features. Rather than overwhelming readers with abbreviations and technical terminology, here\u2019s the key takeaway: the EX5 EM-i is thoroughly equipped to help keep occupants safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-does-the-geely-ex5-em-i-compare-to-the-competition\"><strong>How Does The Geely EX5 EM-i Compare To The Competition?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The plug-in hybrid SUV segment is becoming increasingly crowded, and two of the EX5 EM-i&#8217;s closest rivals are the BYD Song Plus and the Deepal S05.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-byd-song-plus\"><strong>BYD Song Plus<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Against the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/new-cars\/byd\/song-plus\">BYD Song Plus<\/a>, the Geely&#8217;s biggest advantage is efficiency. The EX5 EM-i claims up to 1,065km of range, approximately 175km more than the BYD. Its claimed fuel economy figure of 23.25km\/l is also significantly stronger. The Geely additionally feels more spacious inside and offers a slightly more premium overall cabin experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-deepal-s05\"><strong>Deepal S05<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Compared to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/new-cars\/deepal\/s05\">Deepal S05<\/a>, the EX5 EM-i takes a different approach. The Deepal focuses heavily on futuristic design and technology, while the Geely delivers a more balanced package centred around comfort, practicality, and usability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then there&#8217;s the pricing. Starting at AED 89,900 and extending to AED 115,900, the EX5 EM-i delivers an enormous amount of vehicle for the money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-verdict\"><strong>Verdict<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Geely EX5 EM-i arrives at exactly the right time. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubicars.com\/news\/petrol-price-in-uae.html\">Rising fuel costs<\/a>, increasing interest in electrified vehicles, and growing demand for practical family SUVs have created the perfect environment for a vehicle like this.
