Geely EX2: Australian debut in April


MELBOURNE: The all-electric Geely EX2 (Proton e.MAS 5 twin) will make its Australian debut at the 2026 Melbourne Motor Show (April 10 - 12, 2026).

Auto showgoers will get a first look at an overseas example of the upcoming rear-wheel drive, five door hatchback before it hits Australian showrooms in the third quarter of 2026.

Joining the EX2 will be a sedan and SUV (sport utility vehicle) model, both of which may be added to the local model range in Australia.

Geely’s display will be rounded out by the existing Geely model lineup – the recently updated Geely EX5 all-electric SUV (Proton e.MAS 7 twin) and the Starray EM-i plug-in hybrid SUV (Proton e.MAS 7 PHEV twin).


The EX2 has seen incredible success in China, where it is known as the Xingyuan (translates to Star Wish).

The EX2 was crowned the top-selling vehicle in China across all vehicle segments, not just electric vehicle (EV) sales, with a total of 465,775 units sold in 2025.

Underpinned by the same Global Intelligent Electric Architecture (GEA) platform as the EX5 EV and Starray EM-i Super Hybrid, the EX2 is an example of the platform’s flexibility in modular design.

The addition of the EX2 marks Geely Auto Australia’s debut into the compact city car segment.

Despite its compact footprint, the EX2 demonstrates exceptional use of interior space with over 30 thoughtfully placed storage compartments, including a ‘frunk’ under the bonnet.

Its exterior design incorporates a ‘smile face’ front design, complemented by clean body lines and a selection of pastel exterior colour options.
