Chinese car giant Geely Auto has announced it will use its 2025 EX5 electric SUV to spearhead an Australian launch, challenging dominant mid-sized SUVs like the Tesla Model Y. Geely already owns Volvo, Polestar, Lotus, Zeekr and 50 per cent of Smart (among others), but has not yet sold cars under its own brand. That will change following the announcement it would soon sell the Geely EX5 in Norway, Australia, Thailand, Indonesia and other markets.
