Geely Borui  The Geely Borui is a large family car (D-segment in Europe) produced by the Chinese automaker Geely since April 2015. At the 2011 Shanghai Motor Show, Volvo unveiled the Concept Universe. However, that concept was cancelled after Peter Horbury left Volvo as he joined Geely as vice president of design in 2012. The Geely KC concept was unveiled in April 2013 at the Shanghai Auto Show; the designers already started off the project 2 years ago in 2011. The design of the Borui is based on the KC Concept unveiled at the 2013 Shanghai Auto Show; Peter took the idea of the ripple intake grille and the fastback style from the Concept Universe for the KC Concept. During the 2018 Beijing Auto Show, the facelifted Geely Borui was revealed with the sportier Geely Borui GE model. In mid-2014, the KC concept was confirmed for production as the GC9; the model was later renamed Borui. The car was developed from a new platform jointly developed with Volvo. The Borui is a fastback, which is an uncommon design in the Chinese automobile market. The Borui was the first car model showing what Peter Horbury, the vice president of design for Geely's idea of "Future Geely": Uncommon ripple intake grille, sportive and retro. Peter thinks that a car should look active, since it's not something like a furniture. The interior is mostly chrome plated. Orange decorating LED light strip and ACC (Autonomous cruise control system) were available. It is equipped with double wishbone suspension tuned by automotive technology company Prodrive. The Borui engine options include a 1.8T GDI engine and 3.5L V6 aluminum engine, as well as a six-speed direct shift gearbox provided by Australian transmission producer DSI, which was acquired by Geely in 2009.   2015: 1.8T 163hp L4 petrol 2.4L 162hp L4 petrol 3.5L 275hp V6 petrol 2016: 1.8T 163hp L4 petrol 2.4L 162hp L4 petrol 2017: 1.8T 184hp L4 petrol 2.4L 162hp Le Petrol 2018: 1.8T 184hp L4 petrol   The Borui facelifted model had minor changes to the exterior. The only thing had changed outward is the intake grille. The facelifted Borui carries a Geely G-Power 1.8 Turbo Engine (petrol) which increased the power.
