China’s second-largest EV maker eyes return to Singapore
China’s second-largest electric car maker Geely Auto is set to return to Singapore, seeking to intensify competition with the top brand, BYD.
Geely, China's second-largest electric vehicle manufacturer, is seeking to re-enter the Singapore automotive market, according to recent reports. The company has been in discussions with prominent automotive distribution and retail groups in the country, with the aim of appointing a local agent to support its return. Geely's sales targets for Singapore are reportedly ambitious, aiming to match those of market leader BYD, while also planning significant investments in showrooms and service centers.
The brand's history in Singapore is marked by fluctuations in demand, with registrations peaking at 505 cars in 2007 before declining to just 26 in 2010. Since then, Geely has not registered any vehicles through authorized dealers. The company's expansion plans extend beyond Singapore, with recent entries into seven European markets and a planned expansion into Canada in 2027.
Geely Auto manufactures a variety of vehicles, including electric, plug-in hybrid, conventional hybrids, and gasoline-powered cars.
