Geely Galaxy Starship 7
The Geely Galaxy Starship 7 EM-i (Chinese: 吉利银河星舰7 EM-i; pinyin: Jílì Yínhé Xīngjiàn 7 EM-i) is a plug-in hybrid mid-size crossover SUV manufactured by Geely Auto under the Geely Galaxy product line. It was introduced in October 2024 and went on production in the following month. It is the first vehicle under the "Starship" (星舰; Xīngjiàn) series. It is the first vehicle to utilize the NordThor EM-i 2.0 plug-in hybrid powertrain. OverviewThe Starship 7 was first introduced by Geely Galaxy with a set of images on 22 October 2024.[2] The model started pre-sales on 8 November 2024. Its styling, including some body panels, largely mirrored the fully electric Geely Galaxy E5 / Geely EX5, both sharing the same Global Intelligent New Energy Architecture (GEA) vehicle platform. The Starship 7 adopts the second-generation NordThor 2.0 powertrain, badged EM-i, becoming the first vehicle to use the powertrain.[3] The system employs a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine designed with modifications to enhance air swirl within the combustion chamber, achieving a reported thermal efficiency of 46.5%, slightly ahead of BYD's DM-i 5.0 plug-in hybrid powertrain.[4] The engine delivers an output of 111 PS (109 hp; 82 kW) and 136 N⋅m (13.9 kg⋅m; 100 lb⋅ft) of torque. This engine is paired with an 11-to-1 electrified dedicated hybrid transmission (E-DHT) that includes both the P1 integrated starter-generator and the P3 drive motor, generating a combined output of 160 kW (215 hp; 218 PS) and 262 N⋅m (26.7 kg⋅m; 193 lb⋅ft) of torque. The Starship 7 is capable of accelerating from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 7.5 seconds. The vehicle offers two Aegis Short Blade lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery options: an 8.5 kWh battery with an all-electric range of 55 km (34 mi) on the CLTC cycle and a larger 19.09 kWh battery providing up to 120 km (75 mi) of electric range. Combined with a 51-litre fuel tank and the petrol engine, the total driving range reaches up to 1,420 km (882 mi), with fuel consumption rated at 3.75 l/100 km (27 km/l; 63 mpg‑US).[5] The vehicle is equipped with DC fast charging capabilities with a maximum input rate of approximately 36 kW. According to Geely, charging the battery from 30% to 80% takes 20 minutes. Additionally, the model features a vehicle-to-load (V2L) function.[6] The software of the vehicle adopts the Flyme Auto car operating system and the Flyme Sound audio system developed in conjunction with Meizu, which is owned by Geely.[7] Powertrain
