Geely Preface concept

The Geely Xingrui was first previewed by the Preface concept at Auto Shanghai in April 2019.[3]

The production model, originally referred to as the Preface,[4] was revealed in September 2020 at the 2020 Auto China event in Beijing, China as the Xingrui.[2][5]

The Xingrui shares the same platform, the Geely Compact Modular Architecture platform, with the Xingyue compact SUV, and the same engine, the 2.0-litre Volvo JLH-4G20TD, with the Lynk & Co 02 compact SUV that produces 187 hp (139 kW; 190 PS) and 300 N⋅m (221 lb⋅ft; 31 kg⋅m) of torque.[6] Since 2023, Geely started to offer a 1.5-litre trim that could produce 181 PS (133 kW; 179 hp) and 290 N⋅m (214 lb⋅ft; 30 kg⋅m).[7]
