New Geely SX11 SUV Has Sporty Styling With A Floating Roof

Geely’s upcoming B-Segment crossover is expected to debut during this year’s Beijing Auto Show in April, with a choice of two small turbocharged petrol engines.

These images were uncovered by Chinese portal Autohome, and show what looks like a surprisingly sporty exterior, with angular design elements, an aggressive front bumper, wheel arch bulges, a blacked-out rear pillar design that leads to a floating roof aesthetic, a tailgate spoiler, dual exhaust tips, and a full-width chrome trim piece uniting the taillights.

Coming in at 4,330 mm (170.4 in) in length, 1,800 mm (70.8 in) in width and 1,609 mm (63.3 in) in height, and with a wheelbase measuring 2,600 mm (102.3 in), the SX11 is slightly longer, wider and taller than a Honda HR-V, nearly matching the latter’s wheelbase length, which sits at 2,610 mm (102.7 in).

The new SUV is also believed to feature three different wheel sizes (16,17 and 18-inches), adaptive cruise control, a panoramic camera, panoramic sunroof and more.

As for the previously mentioned engine range, there will be an entry-level three-cylinder 1.0-liter turbo unit producing 136 PS (134 HP), and a bigger 1.5-liter turbo petrol, good for 177 PS (174 HP).
