The Key Details
- Arriving in Australia during the second half of 2027
- Tri-motor all-wheel-drive system with 830kW combined output
- Up to 800mm wading depth and 233mm ground clearance
- G-ASD H7 assisted-driving technology
- Luxury-focused cabin with a 23-speaker Flyme sound system and temperature-controlled storage compartment
The Finer Details
Measuring 5074mm long, 2010mm wide and 1886mm tall, the Geely Battleship 700 is a substantial SUV designed to blend premium comfort with serious off-road capability.
Power comes from a tri-motor all-wheel-drive system delivering a combined 830kW, backed by differential locks and a bespoke 'Waltz U-turn' feature that allows tighter turning manoeuvres when tackling difficult tracks or confined spaces.
The Battleship 700's off-road credentials extend beyond its powertrain. Geely claims up to 800mm of wading capability, while 233mm of ground clearance should help the large SUV navigate challenging terrain. A set of 20-inch alloy wheels and an illuminated front grille further distinguish the vehicle's imposing exterior design.
Inside, the cabin focuses heavily on comfort and technology. Front-seat occupants benefit from both heating and ventilation functions, while a dual-opening panoramic sunroof aims to enhance the sense of space.
A standout feature is an 18.5L heating and cooling compartment integrated within the cabin, while entertainment duties are handled by a premium 23-speaker Flyme audio system.
The Australian-market vehicle is also set to feature G-ASD H7 assisted-driving technology, though full local specifications are yet to be confirmed.
The Road Ahead
The Battleship 700 is shaping up as one of the most ambitious vehicles in Geely's future Australian line-up, combining luxury SUV appointments with headline-grabbing performance and genuine off-road capability.
With local arrival scheduled for the second half of 2027, more details covering powertrain specifications, equipment levels and pricing are expected closer to launch. For now, the Battleship 700 gives a strong indication of Geely's plans to expand into the upper end of the large SUV market.
