Geely, the Chinese parent company of Polestar and Volvo Cars, has flagged a new all-electric sedan that is expected to be be launched in 2023.

In the teaser video, released around the same time as a major update to the Polestar 2 sedan, Geely reveals what appears to be a high-end sedan with a sloped rear section of the car. The rear doors also show as if they open wide being rear-hinged.

The headlights seem to be a slightly angled version of the Polestar/Volvo-inspired Thor hammer design.

The rear of the car is also revealed to have tail lights running from one end of the car to the other.

The new sedan is based on the SEA EV architecture which forms the base for many vehicles from brands like Lotus, Polestar, Zeekr, Smart and the innovative affordable ute brand, Radar.

Brands from the Geely Holding Group include some very well-known automotive companies including Volvo, Polestar, Lynk & Co, Radar, Zeekr, LEVC, Proton, Geometry, Lotus, Livan, Farizon and Geely itself. 

Along with these, the group also has shares in Smart and Aston Martin.

Last year, all brands under the Geely Holding Group sold over 2.3 million vehicle sales with a push towards more electrified models.

2023 is looking to be an even bigger year for Geely Holdings with the launch of the recently announced and updated Polestar 2, the Polestar 3, Lotus Eletre and many more vehicles. 

The new sedan seems to be aiming for the high end of the market which shows the brand’s capabilities to win customers across various segments.

We look forward to seeing what the new electric sedan represents when its fully unveiled later in the year.
