Geely has introduced the new Xingyue L at the ongoing Shanghai Auto Show. Looking rather striking, the crossover has an Expanding Cosmos grille which is flanked by sweptback matrix headlights. Each consists of 126 individually controllable LEDs, allowing brightness and even lighting effects to be customized.

Moving down the sides, we can see streamlined bodywork, minimalist cladding and a pronounced shoulder line which helps emphasize the crossover’s 2845 mm wheelbase. The model also has an expansive greenhouse, chrome trim and a gently sloping roof.

 

Continuing to the rear, the Xingyue L has a ventilated bumper and a stylish tailgate with slender lighting units. Speaking of the latter, the taillights have a dot-matrix setup which consists of 176 LEDs. In the cabin, drivers will find a digital instrument cluster and a widescreen infotainment system that measures over 1 meter long. Geely didn’t say much about it, other than the fact that it has a 1920×720 high-def resolution and runs the latest generation of GKUI which allows for seamless connectivity and ultra-high speed data.

Elsewhere, there’s two-tone upholstery and suede accents. The crossover also features a 10-speaker Bose audio system, a 72 color ambient lighting system and seats that “incorporate Chinese elements like classical knots.” The cabin also promises to be quiet thanks to “noise reduction technology and double layered soundproofing.” The Xingyue L rides on the Compact Modular Architecture, which also underpins the Volvo XC40 and an assortment of Lynk & Co models.

 

Power is provided by a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine with two outputs, 215 hp and 325 Nm, and 235 hp and 380 Nm of torque, that’s connected to either a seven-speed dual clutch or an eight-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel drive system. This setup enables the crossover to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in as little as 7.7 seconds.

On the tech side of things, the Xingyue L has 12 ultrasonic sensors, five millimeter wave radars, four surround view cameras, a monocular camera, a dashcam and 24 environmental sensors. They enable the model to have a Level 2 semi-autonomous driving system as well as an “unmanned automated valet system.” The latter enables you to exit in a parking lot, while the crossover will drive off to find an open parking spot and park itself. When it’s time to leave, the Xingyue L will come get you as long as you’re within 200 meters of the vehicle.

The Xingyue L will be launched in China in the coming weeks and the company plans to offer the model globally in the “near future.”
