The Xing Rui has many styling cues of the Geely Preface Concept, which was first aired at the Auto China 2019, including the wide proportions and wide wheel track. At the front, the Geely's iconic cosmos grille flanked by slender headlights adds more sports credentials to the car.

The cockpit carries such amenities as a flat-bottomed three-spoke multifunctional steering wheel, a 12.3-inch liquid crystal dashboard and a 12.3-inch floating display at the center console. To attract tech-savvy consumers, the Xing Rui has been endowed with a highly intelligent system that allows it to be fully connected to the cloud with OTA (Over the Air) updates. Besides, the vehicle is also equipped with App-based remote control system, GKUI (Geely's innovative digital cockpit system), smartphone car key and voice assistant.

Powering the Xing Rui sedan is a Volvo Drive-E 2.0TD direct injection turbocharged engine whose maximum power output and peak torque of 190 PS and 300 N·m, hooked up to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and front-wheel drive.
