Geely Emgrand GT: A New Sedan with Competitive Pricing and Impressive Features
The Chinese automaker Geely recently held a special event to launch the all-new Emgrand GT. This vehicle is a flagship model for the manufacturer and was unveiled by Geely's exclusive dealer, Union Motors, at their showroom in Deira, Dubai. The most compelling aspect of this car is its price.
The starting price of the Geely Emgrand GT is 59,995 AED. At this price point, buyers receive a front-wheel-drive vehicle equipped with a 2.4-liter engine that delivers 160 horsepower and 210 Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. This setup allows the car to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in approximately 11 seconds. Geely aims to position this model as a competitor to BMW and Mercedes. With the Emgrand GT having won the title of Best Chinese Car, this ambition seems plausible.
Comparison with Other Cars
For comparison, with a budget of 60,000 AED, you could purchase a Kia Cerato or a Hyundai Elantra. However, these are compact sedans, whereas the Emgrand GT is a midsize sedan. It competes with models like the Toyota Camry, Nissan Altima, and Honda Accord but at the price of a compact sedan.
Additionally, Union Motors offers a buy-back guarantee three years after purchase, with a depreciation value of 40%.
