The Geely Monjaro EM-i finally arrived in the Philippines shortly after setting a world-record in Egypt last September. It’s the first in the brand’s local lineup to have their e-AWD drivetrain, has 130 kilometers of all-electric range, 335 horsepower, all for PHP 1,868,000.
The Monjaro has the same silhouette as the Okavango but Geely took things up a notch. There’s a larger front grille with a more imposing design, sleeker headlights, a modern taillight aesthetic, bolder wheels, and a larger panoramic sunroof. It’s a great lesson on design improvement. As for amenities, the exterior gets LED Automatic Headlights, Rear Privacy Glass, Rain-Sensing Wiper, and Powered Tailgate.
It measures 4,800mm long, 1,895mm wide, 1,700mm tall, has a wheelbase of 2,845mm and a ground clearance of 189mm. Not too tall, but humps won’t be a problem as well. Despite its size though, the Monjaro is a 5-seater only.
Moving to the cabin, the Monjaro introduces a more upmarket aesthetic to the Geely lineup. There’s a mountain-range graphic on the dashboard’s passenger side, a minimalist center console, a crystal knob on the rotary dial, diamond-pattern on the seats, leather on most of the contact points, and wood veneers on key visual panels.
The premium look is complemented with modern features as well. There’s an 8-way Power Adjustable Driver’s Seat with Memory, 256-color Ambient Lighting, Heated and Ventilated Front Seats with Massage, Dual Zone Climate Control, 25.6-inch Heads-Up Display, 15.4-inch touchscreen, Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, 16-speaker FLYME Sound System, and 15w Wireless Charging.
The Monjaro being a better Okavango is applied in the powertrain section as well. It has a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with an electric motor for a combined 335 horses, 667 Nm of torque, and power is sent to all wheels via their e-All Wheel Drive system. There’s also a 29.8 kWh battery that results in an all-electric range of 130 km and combined range of 1,095 km. It’s not too shabby in sprinting too as it can do 0-100 kph in 5.83 seconds.
Safety is also well kitted in this SUV. It has an Advanced Driver Assist System that has Intelligent Cruise Control, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, 540-degree Camera System, and Lane Change Assist among others.
Standard safety is aplenty too. There’s a Brake Assist System, Hill-Start Assist, Front, Side, and Side Curtain Airbags, and Geely Traction Control System.
