2026 Geely Starray EM-i: Local lineup detailed for Sealion 6, Outlander PHEV rival
After getting off to a strong start with its budget-priced mid-size electric SUV, Geely now has rival mid-size plug-in hybrid (PHEV) SUVs in its sights. The Geely Starray EM-i is due to arrive in Australia early during the fourth quarter (October-December) of this year. The Chinese brand has yet to confirm pricing, but it has released early specification details and shown off a top-spec pre-production vehicle locally. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. The Starray EM-i will be offered in two trim levels. Geely will confirm the names of these closer to the Starray EM-i's local launch, with final specification details also due around this time. We're expecting sharp pricing, given the all-electric Geely EX5 is priced between just $40,990 and $44,990 before on-road costs. Arguably its most direct rival here will be the BYD Sealion 6, which starts at $42,990 before on-road costs. The Geely Starray EM-i shares the same Global Intelligent New Energy Architecture (GEA) platform as the EX5, even sharing some items like body panels, but it's the company's first global model to feature its E-Motive Intelligence (EM-i) Super Hybrid powertrain. Unusually, Geely has chosen Starray as the export name for this SUV, and not the Starship 7 nameplate seen on the vehicle in China. Confusingly, the Starray name is also used on a different mid-size SUV in other export markets. There are three different drive modes: Pure for electric-only driving, Hybrid for a mix of electric and petrol, and Power for maximum combined outputs. Geely says the EM-i system is designed to be 'electrically driven', with the Starrary EM-i intended to drive like an electric vehicle (EV) in most situations. 3.3kW vehicle-to-load (V2L) charging capability is standard, allowing you to power external electrical appliances from the vehicle's battery. The Starray EM-i is a mid-size, five-seater crossover SUV. The Geely Starray EM-i has yet to be tested by ANCAP or Euro NCAP. Standard safety equipment will include: Geely has also confirmed an as-yet unspecified range of active safety and driver assist features. Geely has released a features list, but it cautions that final specification is subject to change. Final specification will be announced closer to the Starray EM-i's launch this year. At this stage, the top-spec Starray EM-i will come standard with the following equipment: * Denotes equipment exclusive to the top-spec trim. Apple CarPlay will be standard from launch, with Android Auto coming later via an over-the-air software update during the first quarter of 2026.
