The design of the Geely EX5, which was launched for customers in the UAE in June this year, was praised for its porcelain-inspired lustrous finish, which creates dynamic depth under varying light. Judges also highlighted the interior focus on comfort, space, and refined ergonomics, with standout features such as seat massage and ventilation functions as an added bonus. From sculpted lighting configurations to premium seating finishes, the vehicle impressed the international jury with its ability to blend elegance, practicality, and innovation. Commenting on the award, Dr Andreas Schaaf, Group Director, AlBatha Automotive Group, said: “This award reflects not only Geely’s global design leadership but also the value we bring to customers here in the United Arab Emirates. The Geely EX5 embodies the future of sustainable mobility, combining elegance, innovation, and everyday practicality, qualities that resonate strongly with UAE drivers.” The award adds to Geely’s growing collection of global accolades, including the German Red Dot Design Award, Italy’s A’ Design Award, the American IDA International Design Gold Award, and the MUSE Platinum Award. The Geely EX5 was co-designed by Geely’s Shanghai and Milan studios, underscoring the strength of the brand’s global design ecosystem, which also includes centres in Gothenburg, Coventry, and Ningbo. Beyond this achievement, the Geely EX5 continues to play a central role in Geely’s expanding global strategy. Since its international debut at Automechanika Frankfurt in 2024, the Geely EX5 has entered multiple markets and contributed to a 307% year-on-year increase in Geely’s pure EV exports in the first half of 2025. This includes a strong performance in the United Arab Emirates since its launch in June 2025, which paves the way for an exciting lineup of upcoming NEV products from Geely to be launched over the next 12 months. The Geely EX5 is now available in AGMC Geely showrooms across the UAE, offering customers across the Emirates the chance to experience an award-winning EV that represents the best of global innovation and design excellence.
