The Geely EX5 is a sleek, all-electric family SUV designed to take the UK EV market by storm. Built on Geely’s cutting-edge GEA platform, it offers you a smooth, quiet, and incredibly efficient drive. As the parent company of Volvo and Polestar, Geely has packed the EX5 with premium engineering and safety tech. With its minimalist "floating" interior, massive 15.4-inch screen, and a battery designed for longevity, the EX5 is just a brilliant choice for families and business users looking to make the switch to electric without the premium price tag.
Key specifications for the Geely EX5 (typical for current UK models) include:
Vehicle Leasing is a smart way to drive the latest EV technology, as it allows you to enjoy a brand-new Geely EX5 without the high upfront cost or the worry of future resale values - simply drive it for the fixed term and upgrade when you're ready.
If you haven't driven a Geely yet, you’ve definitely seen their influence. Geely is a global automotive giant that owns Volvo, Polestar, and Lotus.
As a result, the EX5 is their "global" flagship, meaning it has been engineered to meet the highest European safety and quality standards.
So, by choosing a Geely EX5 lease, you are getting the build quality and software expertise of a world-class manufacturer, but with the high-value pricing that we here at Fleet Sauce are known for.
The interior of the Geely EX5, for instance, is designed to feel like a "minimalist lounge," focusing on high-quality materials and massive amounts of light.
At the heart of the cabin is a 15.4-inch ultra-thin touchscreen. This high-definition hub then runs the Flyme Auto system, making it as fast and responsive as a modern tablet, with Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto included as standard as well.
On the Max trims, the EX5 features a 1,000W 16-speaker audio system. This includes unique headrest speakers as well that allow the driver to hear navigation prompts without interrupting the music for the rest of the passengers.
The EX5 is also incredibly practical. Because it’s built on a dedicated electric platform, it features a completely flat floor and 33 different storage compartments, including a large drawer under the rear seats for umbrellas, children's devices to be hidden outof site when parked, or even muddy shoes.
Every Geely EX5 al;so comes with V2L as standard.
This means you can plug standard UK three-pin appliances (like a coffee machine or laptop) directly into your car, turning the EX5 into a giant mobile power bank for camping or work.
Let's face it, most electric SUVs from new brands can feel a bit "floaty" or unsettled on our bumpy UK roads, but the Geely EX5 is different. Geely worked closely with the legendary experts at Lotus Engineering to fine-tune the suspension and steering specifically for our tarmac.
The result is a car that feels planted and composed.
Whether you’re navigating tight city streets or cruising along a winding B-road, the EX5 strikes a perfect balance - it’s firm enough to feel safe and steady, yet soft enough to glide over potholes.
In our view, it’s a "best of both worlds" setup that makes the EX5 feel much more like a premium European car to drive to be frank.
Safety isn't just a 5-star rating here, as here the EX5 uses the Aegis Short Blade Battery, which is puncture-resistant and designed to stay stable even in extreme conditions—giving your family peace of mind.
Alongside this, Geely is also owned by Lotus, and they used those legendary engineers to tune the EX5’s suspension specifically for UK B-roads as well.
As a result, it does just feel firm, planted, and much more European than its rivals as a result of this.
While the official range is up to 267 miles (WLTP), all electric cars are affected by the British weather and high-speed motorway driving.
In the height of summer, you’ll likely see very close to that official figure. However, during freezing winter months or long 70mph motorway hauls, your real-world range will sit closer to 210 miles.
The Good News, Geely also includes a Heat Pump as standard on all UK models.
This helps the EX5 stay much more efficient in the cold compared to rivals, ensuring you don't lose as much range when you've got the heating cranked up.
Geely is actually so confident in their new Aegis Short Blade Battery that every EX5 comes with a massive 8-year or 125,000-mile warranty as standard.
This covers both the vehicle and the battery, giving you total peace of mind for the duration of your lease.
While even the entry-level SE is packed with kit, the Max trim adds high-end luxuries like massaging seats and a panoramic roof.
For instance, here you have:
| Feature | SE (Value) | Pro (Stylish) | Max (Luxury) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alloy Wheels | 18-inch | 19-inch Low Drag | 19-inch Low Drag |
| Glass Roof | Solid Roof | Panoramic Sunroof | Panoramic Sunroof |
| Massage Seats | No | No | Yes (6-Point) |
| Sound System | 8-Speaker | 8-Speaker | 16-Speaker Flyme |
For company car drivers, the Geely EX5 is a real game-changer.
Because it produces zero emissions, it qualifies for a 3% - 4% Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) rate for 2025/26 and 2026/27.
Switching from a petrol or diesel SUV to the electric EX5 could save a 40% taxpayer over £2,000 per year in personal tax alone for instance.
The all-electric Geely EX5 is one of the most tax-efficient cars in the UK for 2026. By choosing an EV Salary Sacrifice scheme through your employer, you can drive a brand-new EX5 for significantly less than a personal lease.
Example: A 40% taxpayer can often save over £2,000 per year compared to a standard PCP or Personal Lease agreement, for instance.
Some of the most frequently asked questions we get asked here at FleetSauce about this car include, for instance:
Using a 160kW DC fast charger, the EX5 can top up from 30% to 80% in just 20 minutes.
At home, a full 0-100% charge on a standard 7kW wallbox takes around 9 hours.
While they share the same parent company, the Geely EX5 is significantly larger and more spacious than the EX30, making it a much better fit for families who need a larger boot and more rear legroom.
It is Geely’s latest battery tech, and it’s physically smaller but more energy-dense, meaning it lasts longer (up to 1 million km life expectancy) and is far safer than older lithium-ion designs.
