Geely Auto Indonesia has a new promotion for the Geely EX5, but it’s not a price cut like in Thailand. Instead, the Proton eMas 7 twin gets an ‘EXceptional Value Deals’ package that includes lifetime battery warranty.
There are terms and conditions attached to the lifetime battery warranty, of course. For one, there’s a mileage cap of 30,000 km a year, which translates to an average use of 2,500 km a month – as EVs are unlikely to be heavily used for long distance driving, this shouldn’t be much of an issue. You’ll get a battery change if state of health falls below 70%.
The warranty is also reserved for the first owner of the EX5. This means that it’s not transferable, and the EV will not become ‘more valuable’ as a second-hand car. Battery aside, the Geely EX5 comes with an eight-year or 180,000 km warranty for the electric motor and motor control system. There’s also free emergency roadside assistance for five years.
Apart from warranties, the promo package also includes a free portable charger, a 7 kW wallbox or OEM accessories package, front seats with massage function and adjustable leg rest, and exclusive colour options for the top-spec Max variant. There’s more – 0% interest rates for one year (or subsidy on home charger installation) and 2GB of free data for two years.
Launched in January this year, the Geely EX5 comes in two variants for the republic – the Rp 475 juta (RM123,952) Pro and the Rp 515 juta (RM134,390) Max. Both come with a front electric motor rated at 218 PS (160 kW) and 320 Nm, paired to a 60.22 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery. The quoted NEDC range is 495 km for the Pro and 490 km for the Max.
Trial production of the EV started in May at contract manufacturer PT Handal Indonesia Motor’s plant in Purwakarta, with mass production targeted for Q4 2025. Geely said that it plans to launch between five and seven models in Indonesia over the next three years, including full EVs, plug-in hybrids and ICE-powered models.
For those who aren’t yet convinced by EVs, would a lifetime battery warranty programme like this sway you?
