Filipino car buyers have seen a big potential when Sojitz Auto G Philippines (SGAP), the official distributor of Geely vehicles in the country, introduced the 7-seater Geely Okavango last November 2020.
Introducing the Okavango Urban Plus
The Geely Okavango had no trouble finding its place in the local market as it already tops its crossover sibling, the Azkarra, in sales last year.

The new variant is now the new top-of-the-line option which is integrated with more high-tech features including a 60-inch panoramic sunroof, adaptive drive beam (ADB) matrix LED headlamps, and a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel.

The Geely Okavango 2023 is the first seven-seater from Geely Philippines for the Philippine market, which also makes it the biggest model in the lineup so far.
