"Where can I buy a new Geely in France in 2026?"

"To buy a new Geely in France, you must go through one of the official distributors signed by Geely Auto France: Como in the Paris region (8 dealerships in Pontoise, Velizy, Colombes, Fontenay-sous-Bois, Paris 12, Stains, Paris 17, Port Marly), Baldassari on the French Riviera (Marseille, Toulon, Frejus), Auto Real Group in the South-West (Bordeaux, Toulouse, Perpignan), Elypse Autos in the Grand Est region (Mulhouse, Belfort, Epinal) and Select Auto in La Rochelle. The network is gradually expanding towards 70 sales outlets by the end of 2026."

"Can I buy a Geely second-hand?"

"Yes, several Geely models are already available on the French used market via platforms such as Le Parking, AutoEasy or Autoline24. The most frequent models are the Coolray, the Geometry C, the Azkarra, the Tugella and the Mk. Prices range from 3,000 euros for an older Mk to more than 20,000 euros for a recent Coolray. Always check service history and parts availability."

"Should I order my Geely or can I have it in stock?"

"At launch, the first Geelys sold in France come from the initial stock built up by the manufacturer at its logistics centre in northern France. Depending on trim and colour, some configurations may be immediately available at the dealership, while others will require an order with a 6 to 12-week lead time. Distributors such as Como in the Paris region can give precise information on availability by model."

"What are the warranties for buying a Geely in France?"

"Geely Auto France offers a manufacturer warranty of 8 years or 200,000 kilometres on its two E5 and Starray EM-i models, among the longest on the market. The high-voltage battery benefits from an equivalent warranty. The after-sales network is provided by official dealerships, which have been specifically trained on Geely model interventions."

Buy a Geely in France: 2026 buying guide

Buying a Geely in France has become officially possible since the commercial launch of the Chinese brand in late April 2026. Whether new through the official dealer network or used via specialised platforms, several routes exist to acquire a Geely. This guide details the buying journey and the key points to verify before signing.

Buying a new Geely: the official distribution network

To buy a new Geely in France, you must go through the official Geely Auto France network. The carmaker has signed with five established distribution groups that cover a large part of the territory:

Como: Paris region (8 dealerships)
Baldassari: Provence-Alpes-Cote d’Azur (3 dealerships)
Auto Real Group: Nouvelle-Aquitaine and Occitanie (3 dealerships)
Elypse Autos: Grand Est region (3 dealerships)
Select Auto: Charente-Maritime (1 dealership)

This initial network of 18 sales outlets is set to expand rapidly: Geely Auto France is targeting 70 dealerships operational by end of 2026, then 170 in 2028 and over 200 in 2030. To understand the background of this French rollout, see our complete dossier on the arrival of Geely in France which details the brand’s commercial ambitions.

The choice of an experienced distributor like Como for the Paris region is significant: this group already distributes Mercedes-Benz and benefits from proven expertise in customer support, financing and after-sales. Buying a Geely from a partner of this calibre guarantees a service comparable to that offered for premium European brands.

Where to find a Geely dealership near you

The geographical coverage of Geely dealerships in 2026 is still uneven. The best-served areas are the Paris region, the South-East and the South-West. Residents of other regions will have to wait a few months or travel to the nearest dealership.

Region	Distributor	Cities
Paris region	Como	Pontoise, Velizy, Colombes, Fontenay-sous-Bois, Paris 12, Stains, Paris 17, Port Marly
Provence-Alpes-Cote d’Azur	Baldassari	Marseille, Toulon, Frejus
Nouvelle-Aquitaine / Occitanie	Auto Real Group	Bordeaux, Toulouse, Perpignan
Grand Est	Elypse Autos	Mulhouse, Belfort, Epinal
Charente-Maritime	Select Auto	La Rochelle

For those residing outside these zones, two options should be considered: waiting for the opening of a closer dealership (published on the official website geelyauto.fr) or travelling to the most accessible distributor. The Como dealerships in the Paris region cover a wide band of the metropolitan area and can welcome customers coming from further afield without difficulty. To compare the buying journey with that of other brands, see our guide on how to choose a Mercedes dealer.

Which Geely models are available for purchase in France?

At launch, two models are sold in France: the Geely E5 and the Starray EM-i. Both are SUVs in the C segment, positioned at the heart of the market.

Geely E5: 100% electric SUV, 4.62 metres, 470-475 km WLTP range, 37,990 to 41,990 euros
Geely Starray EM-i: plug-in hybrid SUV, 4.74 metres, total range over 1,055 km, 34,990 to 38,990 euros

For complete pricing details and trim comparisons, see our dedicated dossier on Geely France price which details the price grids and financing solutions.

Other models are announced for the future. An electric sedan called EX2 will complete the range under the 25,000-euro mark. Geely plans to cover 90% of segments of the French market by the end of 2027, with around ten models ranging from city car to family SUV.

Buying a used Geely in 2026

The used Geely market already exists in France, fed mainly by parallel imports or resales of older models. The main buying routes are:

Le Parking: classified ad aggregator, more than 50 Geelys listed on average
AutoEasy: chain specialised in used cars, offers checked and warrantied Geelys
Autoline24: platform aimed at professionals, models from 12,000 euros
Borderless Car: direct import, wide range of models including Xingyue L and S
Private sellers: ads on Leboncoin, La Centrale, AutoScout24

The most frequent Geely models on the used market are:

Coolray: compact petrol SUV, 18,000 to 25,000 euros depending on year and mileage
Geometry C: electric SUV, 18,000 to 22,000 euros for recent examples
Azkarra: crossover SUV, around 19,000 to 22,000 euros
Tugella: coupe SUV, premium used range
GX3 Pro: entry-level compact crossover
Mk: older city car, from 3,000 euros

Before buying a used Geely, several checks are necessary: complete service history, compliance with European standards, parts availability through the official network and validity of the maintenance booklet. Most of these vehicles do not benefit from the official Geely Auto France after-sales network, which focuses on officially distributed models (E5 and Starray).

Financing: credit, LOA, LLD to buy a Geely

For new models, Geely Auto France structured its financing offer with CA Auto Bank, the Credit Agricole subsidiary. Three formulas are offered:

Classic credit: car loan over 24 to 84 months, rate negotiated at the dealership
Lease-to-own (LOA): monthly payments over 36 to 60 months with buyback value fixed at signing
Long-term leasing (LLD): monthly payments without purchase option, vehicle return at end of contract

LLD monthly payments start at 366 euros per month for the Starray EM-i and 399 euros per month for the E5, over 48 months and 40,000 kilometres. For buyers hesitating whether to buy a Geely or another vehicle, calculating the total cost of ownership (monthly payment, insurance, maintenance, energy) remains the most relevant indicator.

Choosing wisely before buying your Geely: criteria and alerts

Several points deserve particular attention before finalising the purchase of a Geely in France:

8-year / 200,000 km warranty: Geely exclusivity on new models, major asset for resale value
Excluded from ecological bonus: Geelys imported from China are not eligible, gap of 2,000 to 4,000 euros vs European competitors
After-sales network: check the proximity of an official Geely dealership for maintenance and warranty repairs
Parts availability: confirmed only for officially distributed models (E5, Starray); more complex for parallel imports
Residual value: Chinese brands still suffer from a lower used-car rating than established brands, to be factored in if resale is planned
Crit’Air and restrictions: the E5 (Crit’Air 0) and Starray EM-i (Crit’Air 1) models are compatible with all Low Emission Zones

For urban users, this last point is crucial. The Geely models currently sold in France benefit from the best Crit’Air classes and allow free circulation in the LEZs of metropolises. To understand the applicable rules, read our guide on the Crit’Air sticker.

For those hesitating between electric and hybrid, the SUV segment now offers a very wide range. Our comparison of the best electric car helps situate Geely against direct competitors on the criteria of range, charging and price.
