The Geely Haoyue L is a mid-size SUV under Geely Auto, positioned as a "large 7-seater family SUV" and serving as a crucial ICE offering in the brand's portfolio. As a comprehensive successor to the original Haoyue, the Haoyue L debuted in December 2022, boasting substantial upgrades in dimensions, chassis setup, and powertrains. In November 2025, the third-generation Haoyue L officially hit the market with 4 variants, carrying official retail prices ranging from RM99,900 to RM129,900, alongside limited-time promotional prices from RM89,900 to RM119,900. In June 2026, the line-up expanded with the Huanle 7-Seater Edition, priced officially at RM103,400 with a trade-in promotional price starting from RM79,900.
The Haoyue L competes in the mid-size SUV segment, focusing on family-oriented practicality with a strong emphasis on "generous space and high value for money" for larger households. Measuring 4,865 mm in length, 1,910 mm in width, and 1,770 mm in height, with a 2,825 mm wheelbase, it falls squarely into the D-segment SUV category. Its key highlights include class-above cabin space, an independent rear suspension setup, the Flyme Auto smart cockpit, and versatile seating configurations. Key rivals in this price bracket include the Chery Tiggo 8 and Jetta VS8.
In terms of market performance, the Haoyue L registered a domestic sales volume of 155 units in October 2025, placing it lower down the segment rankings. To boost sales traction, Geely introduced a 1.5T variant to lower the barrier of entry, while expanding seating configurations and upgrading the infotainment ecosystem to sharpen its competitive edge.
The Haoyue L embraces Geely's signature "Heaven and Earth Aesthetics" design language. Up front, it features an imposing polygonal grille with vertical waterfall slats, flanked by galaxy matrix LED headlamps seamlessly integrated with the grille for a cohesive front fascia. The redesigned front bumper adds a more aggressive, commanding road presence. Four exterior paint options are available: Haoyue White, Starry Black, Snow Mountain Silver, and Far Peak Grey.
In profile, the SUV maintains a classic mid-size silhouette, accented by prominent character lines over the front and rear wheel arches to create a muscular, wide-body stance. Flagship variants ride on newly styled 20-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels wrapped in 235/45 R20 tyres, while other trims come standard with 19-inch alloys wearing 235/50 R19 rubber. At the rear, the tailgate features a discreet roof spoiler with an integrated third brake light, full-width through-type LED taillights with distinctive bifurcated ends, and a dual-tier two-tone rear apron finished with dual exhaust garnish.
Inside, the cabin is built around a "Family Cockpit" theme, making extensive use of soft-touch slush-moulded trims and premium leatherette upholstery. The entire range comes standard with a 10.2-inch full digital instrument cluster, a two-tone flat-bottom multi-function steering wheel, and a prominent 14.6-inch floating central touchscreen. The interior is available in Warm Sun Brown or Moon Shadow Grey colourways, complemented by 72-colour ambient lighting. Delicate quilted stitching across the door cards further elevates the cabin ambience.
The Haoyue L is offered with a choice of two turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engines—a 1.5T and a 2.0T—both paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (7DCT) sending drive to the front wheels.
1.5T Variant: Produces a maximum output of 133 kW (approx. 181 PS) and peak torque of 290 Nm, with specific torque band details yet to be disclosed. Introduced with the third-generation update in 2025, this powertrain serves as an accessible entry point tailored for daily urban family commutes.
2.0T Variant: Delivers 160 kW (approx. 218 PS) and 325 Nm of peak torque across an operating band of 1,800 to 4,500 rpm. It posts a WLTC combined fuel consumption rating of 7.89 L/100 km, with a rated top speed of 210 km/h. Both powerplants are tuned to run on RON 92 unleaded petrol and meet China VI emission standards. Fuel capacity is rated at 60 litres.
Underneath, the Haoyue L features a front MacPherson strut and rear multi-link independent suspension architecture, supported by anti-roll bars at both ends. This marks a significant upgrade over the predecessor's rear torsion-beam setup, delivering superior road isolation, better bump absorption, and vastly improved rear-seat passenger comfort.
The vehicle is exclusively front-wheel drive, with no AWD option available. It employs Electric Power Steering (EPS) and an Electronic Parking Brake (EPB). With a minimum turning radius of 5.9 metres, it remains nimble and easy to pilot through tight urban spaces. Braking is handled by ventilated discs up front and solid discs at the rear. For light off-tarmac clearance, it boasts an approach angle of 19° and a departure angle of 22°.
Drivers can toggle between multiple driving modes including Sport, Eco, and Standard/Comfort. The chassis is supported by Hill Start Assist (HSA), Auto Hold, and Hill Descent Control (HDC). The overall suspension tuning strikes a well-judged balance between compliant ride comfort and dynamic stability, staying true to its family-mover remit.
A major highlight of the latest Haoyue L is the standard inclusion of the Flyme Auto smart cockpit system across the entire line-up. Jointly developed by Geely and Meizu, the interface is anchored by a 14.6-inch floating touchscreen, supporting AutoNavi live navigation, smart voice command, Boundless Space multi-app integration, and broad smartphone connectivity options. It also supports 4G telematics, over-the-air (OTA) software updates, and mobile app remote control.
Seating configurations include 5-seater, 6-seater (2+2+2), and 7-seater (2+3+2) options. In the 5-seater configuration, boot volume stands at 628 litres, easily swallowing large strollers and outdoor gear. Folding the rear seats flat expands cargo capacity to a massive 2,360 litres, creating a 2.2-metre flat floor ideal for outdoor camping.
On the comfort front, upper trims come fitted with an opening panoramic glass roof, a powered tailgate with height memory, a wireless smartphone charging pad, automatic climate control, rear air vents, multi-zone temperature control, and a PM2.5 air filtration system. Flagship grades also add massage, heating, and ventilation functions to the second-row seats. All models feature synthetic leather upholstery, with a power-adjustable driver's seat.
For active safety, upper and top-spec variants of the Haoyue L come equipped with a Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS). Key features include Full-Speed Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Collision Mitigation Support Front (CMSF), Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), Front/Rear Collision Warning (FCW/RCW), Intelligent High Beam Control (IHBC), and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA).
Sensor hardware relies on a suite of millimetre-wave radars paired with a forward-facing monocular camera. Higher trims also gain a 540-degree panoramic camera system with transparent chassis view, providing comprehensive situational awareness in tricky manoeuvres. Base models are fitted with a reverse camera and rear parking sensors.
Passive safety is underpinned by a high-strength cage body structure. Standard across all variants are front airbags, front side airbags, and full-length side curtain airbags (6 airbags in total). Active electronic aids include ABS, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA), Traction Control (TCS), and Electronic Stability Programme (ESP). The vehicle is backed by a 5-year or 150,000 km manufacturer warranty.
The Haoyue L has seen relatively modest sales figures in its home market. Industry data shows October 2025 deliveries reaching 155 units, leaving it near the bottom of its segment. Market watchers attribute this to relatively high fuel consumption, modest tech equipment on pre-facelift models, and aggressive rivalry in this price bracket, where competing nameplates like the Chery Tiggo 8 PRO and Geely's own Boyue L hold strong advantages in equipment, brand equity, and value.
The third-generation Haoyue L introduced in November 2025 seeks to claw back market share by adding the affordable 1.5T engine, offering 5/6/7-seater layouts, and making the Flyme Auto system standard equipment. The introduction of the Huanle 7-Seater Edition in June 2026 lowered the entry point further to RM76,900 under promotional trade-in terms.
Owner feedback has been largely positive regarding the vehicle's cavernous interior, the tangible ride quality improvements brought by the multi-link rear suspension, and the snappy responsiveness of the Flyme Auto system. Conversely, fuel economy remains a common point of criticism compared to hybrid or lighter rivals, while brand recall in this specific sub-segment continues to face stiff competition.
All in all, the Haoyue L represents Geely's dedicated entry in the budget-friendly mid-size SUV market, relying on its "vast space, smart cockpit, and versatile seating" formula. Whether its market fortunes will improve hinges on buyer reception to its lowered price points and tech upgrades, as well as its ability to stand out against entrenched rivals like the Chery Tiggo 8.
