Geely Automobile Sets New Record for Overseas Sales in First Half of 2024
The first half of 2024 has been a remarkable period for Geely Automobile Holdings Limited, with overseas sales reaching an impressive 197,428 vehicles. This marks a significant year-on-year surge of over 67%, setting new records for both sales volume and growth rate.
One of the key factors contributing to this success is the successful launch of 12 high-value models across 30 countries, including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kazakhstan, and Panama. This has led to growth in both exports and terminal sales for the Geely brand.
Geely has also made significant strides in expanding its distribution and service network, adding over 120 new sales and service outlets globally in the first half of 2024. With more than 650 outlets now in operation across 76 countries, Geely has solidified its presence in key regions such as Europe, Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific region.
In addition, Geely has established subsidiaries in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America, while also expanding into emerging markets such as Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, and Vietnam.
With a revised overseas sales target of 380,000 units for 2024, Geely International is focused on driving high-quality growth through market expansion, product innovation, brand integration, and global business operations.
