About the Geely EX5 SUV
The attractive Geely EX5 joined the leasing market in 2025 as an affordable, fully-electric SUV that’s brimming with kit as standard.
Geely might not be a brand you’re too familiar with, but it’s a heavyweight of Chinese automotive manufacturing that also owns or has major stakes in many other car marques, including Volvo, Lotus, Polestar and Smart.
The EX5 is Geely’s attempt to win the hearts and minds of families in need of lean, green, practical and budget-friendly motoring.
At 4,615mm long and 1,901mm wide, the Geely EX5 is similar in size to other electric medium-sized SUVs like the Nissan Ariya, Skoda Enyaq, and Hyundai Ioniq 5.
Why lease a Geely EX5?
The Geely EX5 has plenty going for it, particularly the level of equipment fitted as standard when compared to its relatively low asking price.
Even base models enjoy perforated artificial leather upholstery, 18-inch alloys, a large 15.4-inch touchscreen, 360-degree parking cameras, and wireless phone charging.
Crucially, a heat pump is also fitted as standard and can help you maximise the car’s range - which stands at a max of 280 miles for the range-topping 'Ultra' models.
The Geely EX5 is quick off the mark, with power of 215bhp driving the front wheels and accelerating the SUV from 0-62mph in 6.9 seconds.

Geely EX5 (2025) Review
If you think Geely is just another in a raft of new Chinese manufacturers to land in the UK, think again. The brand dates back 40 years, has strong links with Volvo, Smart, Lotus and Polestar, and just happens to be one of the top 10 automotive brands in the world. The EX5 is a great introduction to the Geely name – and its low price could make it really stand out from the crowd.

The starting price for the Geely EX5 is around £31,990, which is competitively priced when it comes to competitors, including the Skoda Enyaq, Nissan Ariya and BYD Atto 3.

The Geely EX5 is built by Geely Auto, which is part of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group - the same company that owns or has a major stake in brands like Volvo, Polestar, Lotus and Smart.

Yes, the Geely EX5 could be a great lease car for UK drivers. It’s a value-focused, family-sized electric SUV that comes with a wealth of equipment fitted as standard and acres of legroom in the rear for passengers. It could be an attractive option if you’re willing to look beyond other more well-established brands.
Jon was excellent throughout the process, and really worked hard for me. There was a small price discrepancy, as the “in stock deal” on the website only indicated the price for a base model without any additional options, which was not actually possible to order - which I felt was a little misleading. However, Jon worked up a deal I was happy with, and communicated very well throughout the process - including following up with some issues after delivery. I will definitely use again.
Yeh, good service a bit of headache filling forms couple of times but turn around was very good and with the maintenance cover it’s peace of mind.
What's great: I'm now driving a lovely Lexus at a far more affordable price than I could find elsewhere. My contract includes a full maintenance deal which isn't always available with other providers. The sales process and arranging the finance was a good experience, with lots of support from Dave. Thanks Dave! BUT ... Once the contract had been agreed, communication was terrible. I was told that I would get access to the portal (which is the only way to track progress) 'shortly': it took 2 weeks and multiple phone calls and emails (initiated by me)to gain access. Promises to phone me back were not met. In the end, Dave sorted it out. Thanks Dave. The portal looked promising as it appeared that I could track my car's journey from the factory in Japan to delivery. However, apart from me uploading identity documents to it (not acknowledged until I got in contact), the portal did not change except to put my expected delivery date back a month (no explanation). Then out of the blue, the Lexus dealership phoned me to say that my car was ready for collection. This was surprising as the portal located the car in Japan, and gave me a bit of a dilemma as I needed to get rid of my current car at very short notice (anyone looking for an Audi Q2?). Nothing from Select Car until I contacted them to say where the car was. Their failure to contact me was apparently the Lexus dealership's fault in some way ... which I find hard to believe to be honest. I made the decision to collect the car rather than have it delivered, in order to get a proper dealership handover, which I was told was fine. Only nothing happened until I phoned Select Car and was told that I had to arrange collection directly with the dealer. That was news to me, but I did it, and was then sent regular emails informing me that my car was due to be delivered to my house on that date. A few more phone calls followed to sort that out ... Maybe I just had a poor experience. Maybe if you go for a car that is in stock rather than a factory order the process might be smoother. At the end of the day, I did get my car at a good price and within the original time frame, so on reflection I've changed my rating from 3 to 4 stars. But it was a frustrating journey which some joined-up communications at Select Car would have made a happier overall experience.
