    These are the challenges of new Geely PH president | Autoindustriya

    The company has announced that Yugo Kiyofuji will be the new president and CEO of the company effective April 1.
    While Geely may be a Chinese auto brand, the distributor in the Philippines is very much Japanese; it is part of Sojitz Corporation. That is why the top management have been Japanese, and why they follow the business tradition of bringing in new leadership to coincide with the start of a new FY.

    The appointment of Kiyofuji is a key one because he is not a traditional Sojitz executive given his experience. He has been with Nissan and with Isuzu, and thus brings with him many years of lessons from those major Japanese auto brands.
    "I have 3 main challenges," said Yugo Kiyofuji. "The first is to bring the high-quality products that customers want. The second is to grow the network so we can serve more of our customers."

    "The third is of course to work on customer satisfaction. We are working to improve the quality of service and the supply of parts," continued Kiyofuji.

    i think it is time for Geely to have its own sub forum. Same goes with the other Chinese brands selling a bit well. Chery has its own for a long time na din why not the other two

    Why did Geely PH prices shoot up? | Autoindustriya

    One example is the Emgrand Comfort sedan. When we reviewed it, the price was PHP 798,000 which is outstanding for its size and features. Today, it's PHP 945,000. That's a huge difference of PHP 147,000.

    Another is the Okavango. The Urban Plus variant is now retailing for PHP 1,765,000. When we reviewed it last year, it was PHP 1,478,000. The difference is a whopping PHP 287,000.

    The price increases were across the board, though other units experienced smaller price increases depending on the variant. Many are asking: What gives? What happened to the value proposition of Geely?

    We caught up with Sojitz G Auto Philippines (SGAP) executives at the Philippine International Motor Show (PIMS) and we were able to ask why. The answer involves many factors like rising shipping costs and parts costs, but the single biggest reason is the exchange rate.

    Korek! Up for this. Any owners of Coolray here? Would like to hear some feedback like the cost of ownership/maintenance, build quality thru time etc.

    Sufficient. Torquey throughout the entire rev range, but not bury-you-in-your seat kind of power like what I get from faster cars.

    However, you’re coming from a naturally aspirated low displacement engine, it’ll feel very powerful.

    DCT a bit clunky at when going from D to R and vice versa, but otherwise smoother than older DCTs.

    Refinement is in the middle of a turbo diesel and a naturally-aspirated gas engine.

    if i may,

    the top picture shows that the tint is not clear.
    the bottom picture apparently looks clear, probably because the camera that took the picture made automatic corrections that resulted in a clear-like image thru the ws.
    even our eyes automatically make similar corrections, without our knowing it.

    if one wants to make a non-automatically edited picture,
    one way would be to include in the picture a part of the side window with the glass down.
    that way, one may readily compare the tinted view versus untinted view.

    it hopefully means better logistics with parts and more models to choose from.

    Downside is its directly controlled by their company in China.

    AWD. But with only 165mm ground clearance, I don’t think I can bring it anywhere tough.

    Although my AWD CRV (170mm clearance) has gone camping through mild trails.
