Methanol is globally recognized as a clean, renewable energy source and is seen as a key solution for transitioning beyond the oil and gas era. Geely's new "Super Methanol Hybrid" technology enables flexible blending of methanol and gasoline in a single fuel tank. Featuring the innovative methanol engine with ultra-low-temperature cold start technology, the system overcomes the challenge of methanol ignition in temperatures as low as -40°C. The engine achieves a high thermal efficiency of 48.15%, offering users a cost-effective and convenient refueling experience while enhancing vehicle performance, particularly in cold environments.

Geely's methanol-hydrogen hybrid vehicles have already demonstrated their capabilities. At the 9th Asian Winter Games held in Harbin, a fleet of 350 Geely methanol-hydrogen hybrid vehicles provided safe and low-carbon mobility solutions, marking the first large-scale use of methanol-powered vehicles at an international sporting event and highlighting their environmental and performance advantages.

In early March, Geely plans to launch a significant AI intelligence strategy, further strengthening its presence in the smart vehicle sector.
