Car Deal of the Day: Geely Starray for £215 a month is out of this world
Another Chinese plug-in hybrid SUV is offering excellent value for money. The Geely Starray is our Deal of the Day for 4 March.
- High equipment levels; easy to drive
- 51 miles of pure electric range
- Only £214.82 a month
Last week we put the spotlight on a cracking deal for the EX5, an electric SUV from Chinese newcomer Geely. That deal is still available, but what if you'd rather have a plug-in hybrid rather than dive straight into the world of pure-EV motoring?
Within the last few weeks Geely has launched the Geely Starray – a plug-in hybrid sister to the EX5. Through the Auto Express Buy a Car service, you can hop behind the wheel of a Starray for just under £215 a month.
This three-year deal from Leasing Options requires a 12-month initial payment of £2,977.83. Knocking this down to nine months comes in at £2,459.55, and only sees the monthly price rise to £228.84. Mileage on the 12-month initial payment deal is capped at 5,000 a year, with 8,000 only costing an extra £14.15 a month.
Under the curvy body lies a 98bhp 1.5-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine that's paired with a 215bhp electric motor which, in turn, gets its power from a battery. This deal is for the entry-level Pro model, so that battery’s size is 18.4kWh, giving a pure-electric range of 51 miles.
To drive, the Starray isn't the most thrilling plug-in hybrid SUV around, with cars like the Ford Kuga and Toyota RAV4 proving to be more fun to drive. But the Geely is comfortable, stress-free, and generally a perfectly pleasant car to be at the wheel of.
Generous proportions mean excellent interior space, with the Starray having outstanding leg and headroom for rear passengers, and there's a very spacious 428-litre boot.
As we’ve seen with so many newly arrived Chinese brands, customers aren't left short-changed when it comes to standard equipment. Even though this deal is for the entry-level Pro, you get heated seats, a 15.4-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and keyless entry.
