## Overview

Geely is a phonetic transliteration of the company's native name 吉利 (pinyin: Jílì), which means "auspicious" or "propitious" in Chinese.

Zhejiang Geely Holding Group was already manufacturing its own cars long before it acquired the Swedish passenger car maker Volvo Cars from Ford Motor Company in 2010. It completed the acquisition of British taxi maker London EV Company in 2013, and acquired a majority stake in British sports carmaker Lotus in 2017.

Zhejiang Geely Holding Group's business is divided into five sub-groups: Geely Auto Group which includes the brands Geely Auto, Lynk & Co, Proton, and Lotus; Volvo Car Group which includes the brands Volvo Cars and Polestar; Geely New Energy Commercial Vehicle Group which include the brands London Electric Vehicle Company and Yuan Cheng (Farizon); Geely Group (New Business) which includes the brands Caocao, Terrafugia, Qianjiang Motorcycle, Joma, and other new businesses; and Mitime Group (铭泰集团) which includes ZGH educational institutions, motorsports business, and tourism business. Zhejiang Geely Holding Group has global operations spanning the automotive value chain, from research, development and design to production, sales and service.

Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd (吉利汽车; Jílì Qìchē) (SEHK: 175), a subsidiary of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. On 13 February 2017, it became a constituent of the Hang Seng Index.

## History

Li Shufu, the founder of Geely Group, has described the development of Geely Group as three era, 1.0 era of Machinery, 2.0 era of Electronics, and 3.0 era of Intelligence.

### 1997-2007, Geely's 1.0 era

Li Shufu founded Geely in 1986 as a refrigerator maker with money borrowed from family.

After the purchase of a failing, state-run firm, Geely manufactured motorcycles in the mid-1990s. Small van production began in 1998, and a year later, it received state approval to manufacture automobiles. Car production began in 2002. A subsidiary of the group, Geely Auto, had its IPO on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong in 2004.

The company had a booth at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show, and a 2006 showing at the Detroit auto show.

### 2007-2014, Geely's 2.0 era

Geely approached Ford in mid-2008 about a possible takeover of Volvo Cars. On October 28, 2009, it was named as the preferred buyer of Volvo by the American automaker. A deal was reached in late March and completed in early August, 2010.

In 2010, total sales of over 415,000 units gave the company a near 2% market share. Sales were lower than a reported 680,000 units per year production capacity.

In December 2011, it was announced that Geely would begin selling Chinese designed and manufactured cars in the United Kingdom at the end of 2012, with the first model to go on sale being the Emgrand EC7. At that time, the company also stated its intention to begin sales in Italy.

### 2014-present, Geely's 3.0 era

In May 2017, Geely confirmed plans to purchase a 51% controlling-stake in Lotus Cars from its owner, DRB-HICOM (Proton). Additionally, Geely plans to purchase a 49.9% stake in Proton Holdings, to facilitate future export growth in right-hand drive markets. The deals were seen as an important step for the Chinese carmaker in their quest to make inroads into the lucrative ASEAN region.

In July 2017 the company purchased Terrafugia, an American maker of flying cars. In November 2017, Geely announced completion of the Terrafugia acquisition, including approval from all relevant regulators.

In December 2017, Geely invested €3.25 billion into Swedish truck and construction company Volvo Group, a former parent company of Volvo Cars. The deal made Geely the biggest shareholder by number of shares with an 8.2% stake, and second by voting rights, with 15.6%.

In 2018, Geely purchased a 9.7% stake in Daimler AG, owner of the Mercedes-Benz and Smart brands.

In September 2019, Geely led a round of private funding for Volocopter that raised $55 million for the company. Volocopter's other private investors also include Daimler AG which owns a stake in the company.

In late July 2020, it was announced that the Xingma Group had agreed to transfer a 15.24% stake of its shares in the Ma'anshan-based heavy truck manufacturer Hualing Xingma to Geely New Energy Commercial Vehicle Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of Geely Holdings. After the transaction, Geely New Energy Commercial Vehicle Group would become the de facto controlling shareholder of Hualing Xingma.

In September 2020, Geely started talks with rival car manufacturers, including Daimler AG, to license a new architecture it developed for building electric cars. The new technology offers increased driving ranges of up to 700 km and lighter cars.

Geely is set to create an electric vehicle joint venture together with Baidu. Baidu would develop the electric car's software while Geely would manufacture the car itself.

On the 23 March 2021, Geely announced its Zeekr brand of electric vehicles brand to tap into China's growing demand for these vehicles. The first Zeekr model will be based on the Zero Concept car unveiled September 2020 by Geely-owned Lynk & Co. Geely expects to begin deliveries of Zeekr models in the third quarter of 2021.

In August 2021, Geely started a strategic partnership with Renault by forming a car production joint venture for China. In January 2022, the two companies signed an agreement by which Renault's South Korean subsidiary Renault Korea Motors would produce vehicles based on Geely Compact Modular Architecture platform, initially intended for the domestic market. Production is set to start by 2024. In May 2022, Renault said a Geely subsidiary was set to acquire a 34.02% of Renault Korea Motors through capital increase as part of their partnership, although the company would continue to be majority owned by Renault and a consolidated subsidiary of it. In November 2022, Renault said it plans to spun off its powertrain production and development operations (including internal combustion engines and hybrid systems) and combining them with Geely's into a joint venture holding company with both as co-owners. In March 2023, Aramco signed a letter of intent to join the powertrain joint venture.

During February 2023, Geely announced the group's official launch of a new range of electrical vehicle series product series. Geely also announced the new technologies used in their range and have stated the company plan to release seven Geely Galaxy vehicle models within the next two years.

## Controversies

The 2009 Geely GE concept received criticism for looking like a Rolls-Royce.

An unsuccessful lawsuit was brought against the company in the early 2000s by Toyota, which claimed Geely had "implied in ads that some of the parts [used in Geely vehicles] were made by Toyota". Geely may also have previously used a logo that resembled that of Toyota.
