AGMC, the exclusive distributor of Geely Auto in the UAE, is marking a momentous chapter in the brand’s journey with the Geely Emgrand crossing the four-million-unit sales milestone globally as of June 2025. This remarkable figure is not just a numerical achievement but a powerful testament to the model’s lasting relevance, superior build quality, and the widespread consumer trust it enjoys across multiple international markets.
A Legacy of Innovation and Design Excellence Since 2009
Launched in 2009, the Geely Emgrand quickly set itself apart by offering a harmonious blend of cutting-edge technology, sophisticated styling, and reliable performance. The vehicle was conceived to meet the shifting preferences of a global audience, and it succeeded in delivering both cost-efficiency and premium features. Its ability to meet these dual demands has allowed it to thrive in a highly competitive segment, reinforcing its standing as a formidable contender in the compact sedan category.
Dominance in Global and Regional Markets, Led by UAE Success
The Emgrand’s influence extends across more than 25 global markets, but its performance in the Middle East, particularly in the UAE, has been especially noteworthy. It currently holds the distinction of being the highest-performing Chinese sedan in the UAE and commands a 12% share of the C-class sedan segment. This regional success underlines the vehicle’s adaptability and appeal in diverse driving environments. The landmark four-millionth unit was produced in May 2025 at Geely’s high-tech facility in Zhejiang Huzhou Changxing, underscoring a key milestone in the brand’s continued manufacturing excellence.
Engineering a Perfect Balance of Performance and Urban Comfort
The Geely Emgrand presents a compelling option for city dwellers who seek both practicality and performance. Under the hood lies a 1.5L direct injection engine paired with a refined 6-speed automatic transmission, offering 121 horsepower and 152 Nm of torque. Despite its responsive drive, the Emgrand remains impressively fuel-efficient, registering consumption at just 6.4L per 100 km. Built on Geely’s BMA architecture, the sedan promises a composed and secure ride, enhanced by modern features such as Hill Start Assist, Electronic Parking Brake, Traction Control, and a brake priority system that ensures optimal stopping performance under varied conditions.
Crafted for Comfort and Style in Every Detail
Step inside the Emgrand, and it’s evident that Geely has paid close attention to the driver and passenger experience. The cabin offers a blend of contemporary aesthetics and ergonomic comfort, featuring a 12.3-inch high-definition infotainment display, a fully digital instrument cluster, and plush zero-pressure PVC leather seats. A panoramic sunroof further elevates the interior ambience, inviting natural light and openness. The Emgrand also caters to individual style preferences with a choice of six elegant exterior shades, ranging from understated Sky Gray to bold Blue, ensuring that form meets function in every way.
A Future-Ready Sedan That Continues to Shape the Segment
As the Geely Emgrand crosses the four-million mark in global sales, it is clear that this sedan is more than a commercial success; it is a symbol of Geely Auto’s forward-thinking design philosophy and commitment to delivering quality vehicles at accessible prices. For AGMC and its customers in the UAE, the Emgrand is not merely a product but a statement of confidence in the evolution of Chinese automotive engineering on the world stage.
Dr. Andreas Schaaf, Group Director, AlBatha Automotive Group, said: “The Geely Emgrand reflects our commitment to delivering exceptional value, with automotives that excel in driving dynamics, intelligence, safety and design accessibility. This four-million-unit milestone reflects the trust and appreciation of our customer base in the UAE and worldwide. We are proud of having contributed to this incredible achievement and inspired to continue delivering excellence to our customers and partners.”
