Preface is the flagship sedan of the Innovative Geely 4.0 era, based on advanced modular vehicle architectures. As Geely’s first sedan based on the highly advanced CMA Compact Modular Architecture, Preface is a disruptor which makes no compromises in terms of quality, design, technology, and space.
The Preface Concept which first aired at the 2019 Shanghai Auto Show was created by Geely’s Executive Vice President of Design, Peter Horbury.
Design aspects taken from the Preface Concept such as a wide body paired with larger wheels have given the Preface a true level of confidence and road presence, especially when paired with Geely’s iconic Cosmos Grille which gives the face of the car a stronger bite and enhances the sports credentials of the model.
Preface has a 2800mm wheelbase, 1618mm wheelspan, and a 4785*1869*1469mm ultra-wide body.
The dashboard, seats, door panels, central console and other places adopt a yacht blue and accentuating gray color scheme with premium leather covering most touch points.
Fully ergonomically designed seats offer perfect comfort, while adding a delicate and soft visual touch to the interior.
The floating 12.3-inch central control large screen adopts highly responsive touch screen technology and comes with an ultrahigh 1920×720 resolution with contrast up to 1000:1.
With the CMA highly advanced electrical architecture, Preface has been endowed with a super brain allowing it to be fully connected to the cloud and offer users Firmware Over the Air (FOTA) updates.
FOTA enables Preface to be constantly improved remotely with incremental updates to its in-car software, vehicle power, driving dynamics, assisted driving features, and other integrated systems. Through FOTA updates, users can enjoy the benefit of having the “new car experience” every time they step through the door.
