The Geely Binyue is a subcompact crossover SUV produced by Chinese auto manufacturer Geely Auto since 22 August 2018.[2][3] It is sold in overseas markets as the Geely Coolray.

Overview

The first generation Binyue was named "SX11" under development and was revealed in August 2018 as the Binyue. The Geely Binyue was positioned between the Geely Emgrand GS and the Geely Boyue within Geely's crossover portfolio,[4] and is the first crossover based on the BMA platform. The Binyue 260T Sport Versions carry two unique "Geely Sport" logos, which are different from the former "Earth" Logo.

The initial engine options available for the Binyue are a 1.0-litre three-cylinder turbo engine with 136 hp and a 1.5-litre turbo inline-three engine with 177 hp.[4]
