Our Verdict

The Geely Starray EM-i Complete is a plug-in hybrid MPV targeting families who need multi-seat capacity with the economy of electric daily driving and the flexibility of a petrol engine for touring.

For families who need MPV practicality and want to reduce fuel costs on the daily school run while retaining unrestricted touring range, the Starray EM-i addresses the brief.

Overview

The Geely Starray EM-i is a plug-in hybrid MPV — an unusual body style in the Australian EV/PHEV market where SUVs dominate. The MPV configuration provides sliding rear doors, multiple rows of seating, and family-optimised interior packaging, while the EM-i hybrid system delivers extended electric range for daily commuting with a petrol engine for longer journeys.

The Complete trim is the fully specified variant. As a relatively new model in Australia, specific range, battery capacity, and pricing should be confirmed with Geely Australia at the time of reading.

Verdict

The Starray EM-i Complete is a unique proposition in the Australian PHEV market: an MPV body with extended electric range. For large families who want the sliding door accessibility and multi-row seating of an MPV in a plug-in hybrid, it fills a gap that no other manufacturer currently covers.
