Geely EX5 Launches in the UAE, Pushing the Boundaries of Electric Mobility

ArabGT01-07-2025
Arabian Gulf Mechanical Center (AGMC), the official distributor of Geely Auto in the UAE, has unveiled the all-electric Geely EX5 in the local market—marking a bold step forward in the brand's regional expansion.
Following its global debut in July 2024, the EX5 has already exceeded 150,000 units sold by May 2025. Making its regional entrance, this next-generation electric SUV sets a new benchmark in smart design, high-efficiency performance, and sustainable innovation.
At the heart of the EX5 is Geely's groundbreaking GEA architecture—the world's first platform to fully integrate hardware, software, artificial intelligence, and a smart environment into one cohesive system. This isn't just advanced tech—it's a redefinition of the driving experience.
Powered by a 60.22 kWh battery, the EX5 delivers 218 hp and 320 Nm of torque, offering seamless performance on both city streets and highways. Safety remains a top priority, with the exclusive Short Blade Safety Battery System and a full suite of intuitive features including frameless rain-sensing wipers, a six-way massage seat, wireless charging, smart keyless entry, and a 360° surround camera.
Inside, the cabin is clean, connected, and focused on the user. A 15.4-inch infotainment screen and multifunction steering wheel headline a tech-forward interior that blends comfort with modern elegance. With five-star safety ratings from both Euro NCAP and ANCAP, the EX5 is built to perform under any conditions.
The launch also aligns with the UAE Energy Strategy 2050, supporting the nation's shift toward clean, efficient mobility.
Dr. Andreas Schaaf, Director of Al Batha Automotive Group, called the launch 'a landmark moment' for the brand, underscoring the UAE's readiness to lead in electric vehicle adoption. The debut also coincides with the opening of AGMC's new flagship Geely showroom on Sheikh Zayed Road—a space dedicated to showcasing the future of sustainable transport.
As the first Geely new energy vehicle (NEV) to arrive in the Gulf, the EX5 signals the beginning of a broader regional strategy. With more electric and plug-in hybrid models on the way, Geely is inviting tech lovers and forward-thinkers across the UAE to experience the future of driving—today.

Syrian, Iraqi energy ministers discuss Kirkuk–Baniyas oil pipeline

LONDON: The Syrian Arab Republic's Energy Minister Mohammed Al-Bashir on Tuesday discussed strengthening bilateral cooperation in the energy sector with Iraq's Deputy Prime Minister and Oil Minister Hayan Abdul Ghani. Al-Bashir stressed Syria's need for oil imports, and proposed linking pipelines between the two countries, noting that the Kirkuk-Baniyas line was no longer functional. Iraq's deputy prime minister spoke of his country's interest in reactivating the 850 km pipeline and suggested evaluating whether to repair it or build a new one due to regional events affecting oil exports, the Syrian Arab News Agency reported. Pumping stations along the Kirkuk–Baniyas route are largely destroyed and need full restoration, the SANA added. Discussions in Baghdad also included plans for laying optical cables alongside the oil pipelines and connecting them to Lebanon. Both parties agreed to establish joint technical teams and a primary coordination committee. Syrian Deputy Energy Minister Ghiyath Diab also attended the meeting.
