Background

Geely, relying its rich experience in car manufacturing, released 7 new crossover and SUV--Vision SUV, Vision X1, Vision X3, Boyue, Vision S1, Emgrand GS and Emgrand GSe.

Vision X1 is a product which divided Geely's market into more meticulous parts. At the same time, X1 made a complete "Vision" Family coexist with the "Bo" family and the "Emgrand" Family. The three families accelerate Geely's motto of "Young" and "Comprehensive".

Design
The Vision X1 carries on Geely GX2's supermini CUV car style to ingratiate the post-90s generation. The interior is more fancy. The idea of the dashboard came from surf boards. The 11.6 inches touchscreen carries Geely's X-FUN system and supports voice control, GPS and Wi-Fi. To activate it, the passenger needs to say "你好远景" (hello, vision). The multi-function steering wheel is able to activate ACC mode, switch driving modes and receive bluetooth calls. The panoramic sunroof is unique since there isn't another supermini CUV with a sunroof, however, the sunroof doesn't open. Vision X1 equips the LingLong Green-Max 175/60 R15 tires. The front axle is equipped with disc brakes and the rear with drum brakes.
