One year after its launch on the Moroccan market with three distinctive models, Geely expands its offering by introducing a fourth model: the Cityray. This new C-SUV enriches a range already noted for its modern approach and its good equipment/price ratio. The Cityray, available now in the Kingdom, is aimed at drivers looking for a family and versatile vehicle, capable of meeting the demands of urban roads as well as escapades off the beaten track.
The design of the Geely Cityray reflects a bold and contemporary approach, with a front end that immediately catches the eye. The imposing grille adopts a cascading shape, decorated with neat geometric patterns which give it a refined appearance. It integrates harmoniously with the LED front lights, which display a striking light signature. These lights, equipped with daytime running lights made up of 256 diodes, draw clean lines and offer increased visibility while accentuating the visual identity of the vehicle.
The overall proportions of the Cityray are emphasized by taut, dynamic lines running through the bodywork. These lines culminate at the rear, where a sporty spoiler adds a touch of dynamism, while contributing to aerodynamic efficiency. The bottom of the vehicle is highlighted by twin chrome tailpipes, integrated into a rear diffuser, which reinforce the sporty and robust appearance.
The rear of the SUV is also distinguished by LED lights connected by a horizontal light bar. This stylistic detail accentuates the visual width of the vehicle, while giving it a statutory silhouette. This combination of shapes, textures and carefully arranged lighting elements makes the Geely Cityray a model that is both elegant and resolutely modern, destined to captivate the eyes on all roads.
A refined atmosphere on board
The Cityray’s interior lives up to its exterior design, combining elegance and modern technologies. Quality materials, careful upholstery and 72-color ambient lighting create a welcoming atmosphere. The dashboard is dominated by two screens: a 13.2-inch multimedia touchscreen and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, which offer an intuitive and connected interface. Passenger comfort is enhanced by well-thought-out ergonomics and high-end equipment, such as electric front seats (in premium finish) and a panoramic roof.
Under the hood, the Geely Cityray offers a 174 hp 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, mated to a DCT dual-clutch transmission. This powertrain promises honorable performance, with 0 to 100 km/h announced in 7.9 seconds. The ground clearance of 185 mm and the four driving modes (Eco, Comfort, Sport and Intelligent) aim to ensure adaptability to different types of terrain and situations, from urban journeys to light off-road outings.
The Cityray emphasizes safety and driving aids, with up to six airbags and a range of advanced technologies. It includes adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, blind spot monitoring and a 360° camera system. This equipment complements an emergency braking system and collision avoidance alerts. All finishes include parking sensors, while higher versions benefit from exclusive equipment such as 19-inch rims and heated seats.
Three finishes to appeal to all profiles
The Geely Cityray comes in three trim levels, each designed to meet varying expectations. The Comfort version, which constitutes the entry level, already offers essential equipment such as 18-inch alloy wheels, a reversing camera, and a 13.2-inch HD touch screen, guaranteeing a good level of convenience and of technology. The Premium finish takes the experience a step further by integrating additional features such as a panoramic sunroof, a 360° camera, as well as advanced driving aids, including the blind spot detector, thus offering increased comfort and enhanced security. Finally, the top of the range Sport+ is distinguished by exclusive equipment, including electric front seats with a memory function for the driver, and customizable ambient lighting, which adds a touch of refinement to the interior of the vehicle. . This gradual move upmarket allows the Cityray to appeal to a wide range of drivers.
Priced from 249,900 DH in Comfort finish, the Geely Cityray enters a hotly contested segment. With balanced services and an attractive design, it could attract customers looking for an alternative with a competitive quality/equipment ratio. However, in a market where Asian models are increasingly numerous, it remains to be seen how the Cityray will stand out in the long term.
