Geely Automobile

Chinese automaker Geely has unveiled a battery that, according to the manufacturer, charges from 10 to 70 percent in 4.5 minutes and up to 97 percent in 8 minutes 40 seconds. Geely uses artificial intelligence to adjust charging power to the battery temperature and prevent overheating. With the development, Geely is moving into competition with BYD and aims to reduce dependence on external battery suppliers. » Más en n-tv.de

The maker of the legendary Black Cabs, LEVC, is promising a new generation of all-electric models with greater range for next year. The company has been in crisis for years: sales fell by over 40% in 2025 to 725 vehicles and LEVC lost £62 million that year, with cumulative losses over the past four years approaching half a billion pounds. Reasons include competition from Uber and Bolt, a decline in drivers, inflation and reduced e‑subsidies; Geely has kept LEVC afloat several times with cash injections. » Más en faz.net

Geely reported revenue of $97.25 billion for H1 2026, missing the $103.47 billion forecast by 6.01%. At the same time, gross margin improved to 17.9% and profit margin to around 5.6%, driven by stronger premium sales and rapid export growth (Q2 export volume about 270,000 units). Zeekr raised Q2 deliveries to 100,000 units, and the stock rose 4.77% after the results. Management expects at least the Q2 gross margin level for Q3 and plans multiple product launches and higher export volumes to further strengthen margins. » Más en de.investing.com
