Geely 16-in-1 Intelligent Electric Drive Debuts with 800V Architecture and AI Technology

Geely Auto Group officially introduced its new Geely 16-in-1 Intelligent Electric Drive on July 16, marking the global debut of the company's latest integrated electric propulsion system. The technology will first be installed in the Geely Galaxy TT and represents a major advancement in electric drive integration by combining 16 core hardware components and functions into a single compact architecture. The company stated that the new system has been engineered to improve energy efficiency, driving performance, safety, manufacturing efficiency, and long-term reliability while supporting its expanding global electrification strategy.

Integrated Design Reduces Weight and Improves Efficiency

The Geely 16-in-1 Intelligent Electric Drive combines major components including the motor, motor controller, reducer, and multiple control functions into one highly integrated system. This architecture lowers the total system weight to only 75 kg while shortening the power transmission path to reduce energy losses. Built on Geely's advanced 800 V high-voltage platform, the electric drive incorporates AI-powered intelligent energy optimization technology together with several manufacturing innovations such as 0.2 mm low-stress ultra-thin silicon steel sheets and an inverted-V gear structure. Under CLTC conditions, the complete system achieves a maximum overall efficiency of 93.8% while reducing energy consumption to approximately 10 kWh per 100 km.

Performance and Intelligent Control Highlights

The all-wheel-drive version produces a maximum combined power output of 425 kW, allowing acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in as little as 3.8 seconds. The system also introduces a single-chip integrated control solution that combines powertrain and chassis signal analysis, computing, processing, and dynamic vehicle control into one high-performance chip. This design lowers traditional control loop latency to as little as 2 milliseconds while enabling rapid response to powertrain commands. AI-based deviation prediction control and adaptive PID algorithms further reduce real-time torque deviation from 3% to 1%, resulting in more precise vehicle body control and improved driving stability.

Cooling Technology and Validation Performance

The electric drive integrates an advanced 54-channel directional cooling system that lowers the motor's maximum operating temperature by 15°C, helping minimize power degradation and performance loss during demanding operating conditions. Demonstrating its durability, the Geely Galaxy TT completed a continuous drifting challenge covering 46.094 km at the East China (Dongying) Intelligent Connected Vehicle Proving Ground, validating the stable power delivery and performance capability of the Geely 16-in-1 Intelligent Electric Drive.

Key Technical Specifications of the Geely 16-in-1 Intelligent Electric Drive

Extensive Validation and Global Manufacturing Capability

The Geely 16-in-1 Intelligent Electric Drive has undergone a comprehensive global validation program spanning 15 major testing areas, including power, performance, reliability, and NVH, with more than 9,000 individual test items completed. According to the company, testing across diverse operating conditions confirmed the system's long service life and high reliability. The electric drive is developed and manufactured by Wuxi Xingqu Power Technology Co Ltd, which has an annual production capacity of three million electric drive units. The company supplies products to major automotive brands including Geely, Volvo, Jaguar Land Rover, and Renault.

Mass Production Marks a New Milestone

The official start of mass production for the Geely 16-in-1 Intelligent Electric Drive represents an important milestone within China's automotive technology ecosystem. Geely Auto Group stated that it will continue building on its proprietary core technologies and global manufacturing network to deliver advanced electric powertrain solutions and intelligent manufacturing capabilities to international markets, supporting the company's long-term global electrification ambitions.
