New Geely Emgrand GS arrives in Oman

Available with a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine with 133hp and 170nm and a six-speed DCT, the Emgrand GT design follows the blend between European and Chinese elements

MUSCAT: The Emgrand GS, an urban crossover SUV and a first of its kind car from Geely Auto has arrived in Oman at the Towell Auto Centre (TAC), the sole distributor of Geely range of vehicles in the country.

The all-new Geely Emgrand GS had its public debut on the Beijing Auto Show and was launched on the Chinese car market at the same time. A good-looking crossover SUV, the Emgrand GS has been designed by none other than Peter Horbury.

A senior spokesperson of TAC commented: “The all-new Emgrand GS is a very impressive car in terms of its performance, looks and pricing. It follows in the footsteps of the great Geely vehicles that came before it crossing hatch and compact SUV. We have launched limited stock of its Lux- ury variant at our showrooms and are sure that it would receive great customer response in Oman as it has received it the world over.”

Available with a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine with 133hp and 170nm and a six-speed DCT, the Emgrand GT design follows the blend between European and Chinese elements. The ripples on the famed West Lake have made it into the GS’s grill and the bridges over West Lake is the inspiration for the arching dashboard that goes across the centre of the car and into the door panels.

A full moon roof turns the Emgrand GS’s cabin into a light, airy and space conscious interior, passengers will be able to benefit from better views around the vehicle. 18-inch alloy wheels are used to give the Emgrand GS a surefooted stance on the roads, making the GS ready for whatever the urban environment can bring at it. Daylight running lights have been chosen for the Emgrand GS to give the GS a strong presence both during the day and at the night.

Geely’s urban safety system has been installed on the Emgrand GS, allowing the vehicle to automatically apply the brakes should the driver get too close to the car ahead, at the same time this system also works hand in hand with the automatic cruise control system that will match the vehicle in fronts speed and apply brakes should another vehicle enter in front.

By bringing the Geely range to the Sultanate, TAC has reinforced its commitment to provide highquality products and services to its customers in Oman.
