The Geely E2 comes in two variants: the Aspire, for R339 900, and the Apex, for R389 900. Both have 85kW output and 150Nm of torque, a 39.4kWh battery with 325km of range, and a 130km/h top speed.

So why fork out the extra R50 000 if the performance is the same? The difference is in the Apex’s styling, interiors and advanced safety features.
