The Starship 7 features a through-light strip and an enclosed face at the front. It also has split headlights and a trapezoidal air intake at the bottom of the fender. Surprisingly, the Starship 7 doesn’t use hidden or semi-concealed door handles but rather old-school ICE-looking pull ones. The car has multi-spoke wheels and a through-light unit at the rear.
The Geely Galaxy Starship 7 measures 4740, 1905, and 1685 mm (l/w/h), while the wheelbase is 2755 mm. It is the first Geely model to use the NordThor 2.0 powertrain system, a second-generation PHEV system also known as EM-i. Centered around a naturally aspirated 1.5-liter engine with 82 kW of power, the engine boasts a thermal efficiency of 46.5%.
It also adopts an 11-in-1 hybrid electric drive, a P1 + P3 motor, a silicon carbide step-less boost module, a TMS thermal management system, and a G-TCS active anti-skid system. The electric motor has a maximum power of 160 kW.
The pure electric range is either 55 km or 120 km, depending on the version. The lower-range version uses an 8.5 kWh battery pack, and the longer-range version uses a 19.09 kWh battery pack. The 19.09 kWh battery pack version is quoted as having a CLTC range of 1420 km.
Inside, the car has a Flyme Auto intelligent cockpit system from Meizu. The dashboard has a 14.6-inch floating infotainment screen and a 10.2-inch digital instrument display. The steering wheel is similar to the one in the Geely Galaxy E5. There is also a dual 50W wireless phone charging pad.
Higher-spec models benefit from a wide head-up display and a 540-degree transparent chassis. They also have a 16-speaker sound system.
