Overview
In May 2018, Geely released a "A06" model and named it Geely SL. It sets its position as a sport sedan based on Geely Emgrand GL. The new car should be able to face the need of young people. The exterior appearance of fastback body style and the headlight takes ideas from Geely Borui GE.[3]
The new car carries the Geely's G-Power 1.4-litre turbocharged engine mated to 6-speed manual or CVT transmission and 1.0-litre turbocharged engine mated to 6-speed dual-clutch transmission.[4] Binrui provides self-driving on level 2, which equipped autonomous cruise control. It's also possible to free hands from the steering wheel with the lane support system. Since this is only a assisted system, the system would warn the driver after a few minutes or the lane support system could not find the lane markings. The self-driving system is not able to overtake and switch lane.[5]
