The competition in the SUV market heats up. Everyone seeks change. Geely’s fourth-generation Boyue L focuses on AI technology. It achieves a complete overhaul from design to smart experience. As a new model in the Boyue family, this car maintains its “smart SUV leader” gene. It also shines in intelligence through deep collaboration with Meizu on the Flyme Auto system. These upgrades aim to boost sales. Can this car continue to lead in the 100,000 to 150,000 yuan (20580$) gasoline vehicle segment?
Geely’s Boyue stands out in the fuel vehicle market. Since its launch in 2016, it has ushered in a new era of smart connectivity for Chinese SUVs with the phrase, “Hello, Boyue!” It continuously evolves to meet user demands. Over 2 million users worldwide enjoy an exceptional smart travel experience. Design: A perfect blend of natural beauty and future technology. The fourth-generation Boyue L joins the Boyue family. It aims to be a “three-good SUV,” inheriting the values of “better looking, better driving, and smarter.”
This car features a “Mountain and River Charm” design. It has a large inverted trapezoidal grille with chrome elements. The light strip spans 2.4 meters. It offers an ultra-wide illumination range of 184 meters by 23 meters. It supports various lighting effects and provides higher recognition.
The car’s side features a smooth dual-line waist and a floating roof, creating visual tension. The 20-inch two-tone wheels with red calipers enhance the sporty feel. Its dimensions are 4730×1910×1710mm, with a wheelbase of 2785mm. The rear also uses a continuous light strip, which resembles a cosmic trail when illuminated. Interior craftsmanship: luxurious embrace of the cockpit Inside, the cockpit design offers a strong sense of enclosure. The center console combines Nappa leather and suede, providing a delicate, non-slip touch. The step-style decorative panel in front of the passenger integrates vertical ambient lights that change colors with the music or driving mode, creating an immersive “digital symphony of technological aesthetics.”
The central console features a 15.4-inch 2.5K ultra-clear horizontal display and a 25.6-inch AR-HUD head-up display. These match the Flyme Auto smart cockpit system. The hardware uses a vehicle-grade 7nm Long Eagle One chip. It offers 16GB+128GB of large storage. The AI computing power is twice that of the 8155 chip. This setup provides a smarter emotional interaction experience in the cockpit.
Flyme Auto Car System: Redefining Smart Interaction Flyme Auto is a smart cockpit system developed by Geely and Meizu. It shows strong ecosystem integration in the fourth-generation Boyue L. The car connects to the phone instantly. No operations are needed. It shares computing power and apps. Navigation flows seamlessly from the car to the phone. Music continues playing when you enter the car. The small window mode allows multitasking. The phone integrates into the car system.
The vehicle features the Flyme Sound 16 speaker system. It includes headrest speakers for 7.1.2 surround sound. The interior ambient lights support various interactive modes. These modes include music rhythm, voice interaction, door warnings, door welcome, and breathing rhythm. The lights offer a 256-color seamless transition effect.
The front seats use a ten-layer high rebound structure and 15mm thick foam. They support six-way electric adjustment, four-way electric lumbar support, leg rest, massage, heating, ventilation, memory, and headrest sound functions.
The storage space impresses. The regular trunk has a volume of 650L. The adjustable double-layer shelf design allows for flexible storage. Folding down the rear seats expands the space to 1610L, easily accommodating family camping gear. Notably, the left side of the trunk features a hidden storage compartment for small items like charging cables. The right side includes a 12V power outlet for connecting a car refrigerator. Driving performance shines with the 2.0T + 7DCT powertrain. The fourth-generation Boyue L offers two engine options: 1.5T and 2.0T. We tested the 2.0T version, which delivers 160 kW of power and 325 Nm of torque. It uses a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. This powertrain responds quickly. The turbo kicks in at 1500 rpm, providing ample low-end torque. During high-speed overtaking, pressing the accelerator deeply prompts the transmission to downshift decisively, ensuring plenty of power reserves.
The old Boyue L 2.0T model requires 95-octane gasoline. The fourth-generation Boyue L 2.0T engine underwent bench testing and vehicle calibration. It passed tests in high-temperature and high-altitude conditions. It achieved fuel compatibility while maintaining maximum power and torque. This change reduces operating costs.
The front McPherson and rear multi-link independent suspension filter out small vibrations completely. It suppresses body roll well during high-speed turns. The combination of ANC active noise cancellation and double-layer soundproof glass enhances the overall quality, making it superior to competitors in the same price range. Summary: A breakthrough in intelligent fuel vehicles. The fourth-generation Boyue L is not just a simple upgrade. It represents a comprehensive evolution based on user needs. The Flyme Auto system redefines in-car interaction. Its spacious interior and luxury features make family trips more comfortable. The 2.0T engine paired with 92-octane fuel hits the practical needs of consumers. For those with a budget around 150,000, this SUV offers high value and serves as a “mobile third space” in the era of smart travel. If you are considering a family SUV, the fourth-generation Boyue L deserves a spot on your test drive list. Its performance exceeds expectations.
