11 kW three-phase wallbox · 10–80%: About 4.8 hours

Our opinion

The practical view.

“Shortlist it for the way it fits your household, not for a headline acceleration or range number.”

Why it belongs on a shortlist

Power tailgate and head-up display
Ventilated front seats
450 km WLTP range

Trim guidance: Inspire adds comfort and cabin equipment for $4,000 above Complete before on-road costs. Check the build date and battery capacity when comparing dealer stock.

Conservative planning allowance derived from the published WLTP figure; it is not a guaranteed real-world result.

Problems, recalls and evidence

What might annoy you.

25 km less WLTP range than Complete
Geely's 20-minute fast-charge claim covers 30–80%
Confirm towing eligibility for the exact VIN before ordering

Long-term faults and parts waiting timesinsufficient data

Affected vehicles: Australian-delivered vehicles; exact variant and model-year coverage is not established
Severity: information
Australian relevance: Insufficient verified Australian data
Status: No model-level conclusion drawn
Owner action: Check the VIN with the manufacturer and the Australian Government recalls database before purchase

Absence of a listed issue is not a reliability claim. Official recalls, manufacturer campaigns, repeated reports, isolated reports and editorial observations are never blended into a fake failure rate.

TechManPat practical fit

Not tested - yet.

Catalogue research is not a physical family-living test, so this vehicle does not receive a TechManPat Tested badge.

The future test covers a rear-facing child seat, pram and shopping, dog crate, boot opening, rear doors, adult rear comfort, easy entry, parking, visibility, controls and real-world efficiency.
