KatadataOTO – Currently the Indonesian electric car market is flooded with Chinese products. Recently there is a Geely EX2 that livens up the competition.

The presence of that Electric Vehicle (EV) is considered a new option for people who want to own an electric four-wheeled vehicle.

Especially for urban people who need a compact electric car, the Geely EX2 can be an option.

In addition, this product's design is quite unique, featuring a Smiling Front Grille combined with Feather-Flow LED lights.

Additionally, the Geely EX2 also has a fairly compact dimension, with a length of 4,135 mm, width of 1,805 mm, and height of 1,580 mm.

Meanwhile, the wheelbase reaches 2,650 mm, making it reliable for navigating traffic congestion in urban areas.

It so happened that the KatadataOTO team got a brief test drive with the Geely EX2 a while ago, covering less than five kilometers.

Driving Impressions of the Geely EX2

When entering the tiny electric car cabin of this Geely, the first impression is modern and spacious.

The driver's seat feels cushy with an ergonomic position, especially after being equipped with a 6-way electric adjustment.

So you can set the seating position as you wish, adding comfort during the journey.

Meanwhile, visibility in all directions is fairly good, giving us confidence when maneuvering on the road.

For a driver with a height of 175 cm, the Geely EX2 cabin still feels sufficiently roomy in terms of headroom and legroom.

Geely also reinforces a futuristic feel on the EX2, equipping it with a large 14.6-inch touchscreen.

It serves as the central control for vehicle functions, so you'll need to adapt a bit to operate the various features.
