Since its launch, the Geely Coolray has become more than a stylish compact SUV – it’s a global phenomenon. By early 2026 the model will have crossed the 1.2 million‑unit milestone, reaching more than 50 countries from the demanding markets of Eastern Europe to the scorching deserts of the Middle East.

Global Success Built on a Solid Foundation

The secret behind the Coolray’s soaring sales lies in its BMA platform, a chassis architecture derived from Volvo’s rigorous safety and durability standards. The body structure features a high‑strength‑steel “armor” – roughly 70 % high‑tensile steel and 20 % hot‑formed steel – delivering exceptional crash absorption while keeping weight in check.

Safety First: More Than 20 ADAS Features

Safety isn’t an afterthought. The Coolray packs six airbags, three‑point seatbelts for every occupant and ISOFIX child‑seat anchors. Its active safety suite, an ADAS system with close to twenty modern functions, puts the model among the safest in the sub‑compact SUV segment.

Powertrain Edge Over Competitors

While many B‑segment SUVs in Vietnam rely on naturally aspirated 1.5 L engines that churn out 105‑115 hp, the Coolray steps up with a turbocharged 1.5 L unit delivering 175 hp and a robust 290 Nm of torque, paired with a smooth seven‑speed dual‑clutch gearbox. The result is performance that rivals even some C‑segment rivals.

Vietnam’s “Journey of Confidence” Campaign

Understanding local expectations, Geely Vietnam teamed up with Tasco Auto for the “Journey of Confidence” road‑test. Instead of laboratory simulations, the Coolray was driven 75,000 km over eight months on real Vietnamese highways, covering four full‑country traverses and averaging 600 km per day during peak periods.

Results: A Six‑Year Wear Test in Half a Year

After the grueling 75,000 km (equivalent to over six years of typical ownership), the SUV still ran smoothly. The engine and chassis showed no signs of fatigue, electronic functions remained flawless, and overall quality stayed consistently high. This real‑world validation reinforces the model’s 1.2 million‑unit global claim as more than a fleeting hype.

Current Offers and Expanding Support Network

Geely Vietnam makes ownership even easier. Until the end of February, Standard and Premium trims enjoy a 3 % price discount, while the Flagship version receives up to a 50 % reduction on registration fees. The brand’s footprint now includes 52 showrooms and over 100 service points nationwide, all built to Geely’s global standards and backed by the comprehensive mobility ecosystem of Tasco Auto.

With proven durability, cutting‑edge safety and a compelling value proposition, the Geely Coolray is redefining what drivers can expect from a compact SUV.
