● Competitors:
"BYD Song PLUS DM-i"
"BYD Song Pro DM-i"
In terms of price, battery life, body size, and configuration, Galaxy L7’s competitors are all directly targeting BYD Song PLUS DM-i and Song Pro DM-i models. Now that there is a clear goal, Galaxy L7 will naturally have stronger product power and cost-effectiveness, and then it can only slowly win consumers and the market through time.
● Editor’s comment:
From the official release of the Galaxy series in February this year to the official launch of the first product, Galaxy L7, there was only a gap of more than three months. The fast pace of Geely Galaxy’s products is indeed rare, and in addition to the L7, Galaxy L6, Galaxy E8 and other products will also be launched this year, which also shows Geely’s determination to attack the plug-in hybrid market. Can Galaxy L7 quickly gain consumer recognition, gain a firm foothold in the market, and pose a threat to BYD? Let’s wait and see. (Text/Autohome Guo Chen)
