Urban Agility Meets Playful Charm
Measuring 4,006×1,765×1,550 mm, the Firefly masters city navigation with its wheel-at-corners stance and tight 10.6-meter turning radius. Three dopamine-inspired pastel shades—Jasmine White, Mint Green, and Sakura Pink—reject the toy-like aesthetic of micro-EVs, while blacked-out 16-inch wheels and flush door handles add sophistication. The front fascia features an LED light bar flanked by matrix headlights in C-shaped ducts, creating a distinctive signature. Notably, its 165 mm ground clearance—best in class—enables confident curb climbing, setting it apart from low-slung rivals.
Battery & Range:
Two lithium iron phosphate (LFP) options: 29.67 kWh (301 km CLTC) and 39.3 kWh (401 km CLTC)
IP67-rated battery pack with 41 rigorous safety certifications
30%-80% fast charging in 30 minutes, full charge via 7 kW AC in 6 hours
Real-world data shows impressive efficiency: Summer consumption averages 10.3 kWh/100 km, translating to monthly energy costs under 300 RMB for 80 km daily commutes . Even in winter, owners report reliable 350 km range with moderate HVAC use—exceeding expectations for this price bracket .
Driving Dynamics:
Front-mounted permanent magnet motor (60 kW/130 N·m)
Top speed of 121 km/h in Sport mode
0-100 km/h acceleration in 12.5 seconds (estimated)
The Firefly won’t win drag races, but instant torque delivery enables zippy urban maneuvers. MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear handle city bumps competently, though tire noise becomes noticeable above 80 km/h . Regenerative braking offers three levels, with the strongest setting enabling one-pedal driving in traffic.

Space-Savvy Sanctuary
Inside, color-coordinated themes (Mist White, Stone Blue, Cloud Pink) echo the exterior, while matte-gray dashboard trim reduces glare . The cockpit centers on a dual-screen layout: a 9.8-inch digital cluster and 10.25-inch touchscreen running Geely’s infotainment with 4G connectivity and OTA updates .
Innovative storage solutions shine:
Tatami Boxes: Two removable 6.2L under-seat compartments for shoes or groceries
Floating Console: Column-mounted gear selector frees space for bags beneath
Expandable Trunk: 356 L to 1,000 L with rear seats folded—fits two folding bikes
Health-conscious materials include baby-certified leatherette seats, an antibacterial steering wheel, and a CN95-rated air filter that captures 99.9% of PM2.5 particles—a post-pandemic necessity .
Segment-Defining Protections
The Firefly’s core differentiator is its unexpected safety arsenal:
Battery Armor: First EV in its class to earn a Grade A bottom collision certification, with multi-layer impact protection
Body Structure: High-strength steel cage frame and roll-formed crash beams
Active Systems: L2 driving aids including ACC (0-110 km/h), AEB with pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, and auto high beams
Tested 100-0 km/h braking distance of 38.1 meters rivals premium sedans, while ESC effectively counters oversteer during emergency swerves2. However, some owners report motor whine issues needing dealership attention.
Verdict: The New Benchmark for Affordable EVs
The Geometry E Firefly proves that budget EVs needn’t cut safety corners. By democratizing innovations like battery armor, CN95 filtration, and structural reinforcements, it sets a precedent that challenges the entire segment . While its acceleration won’t thrill enthusiasts and interior plastics reveal cost constraints, its core strengths—401 km real-world range, L2 driving aids, and family-friendly packaging at under 90,000 RMB—make it a compelling proposition .
For global markets eyeing affordable electrification, the Firefly demonstrates how intelligent engineering can prioritize protection without premium pricing. In illuminating this path, Geely hasn’t just built a competent city car—it’s sparked a safety revolution for the masses .
