2021 Geely Okavango 7-seater SUV all set for PH debut next week 

The seven-seater Okavango is all set to make its local debut as Geely Philippines confirmed its launch date, which will be on November 19, 2020.

The 2021 Okavango is Geely PH’s challenger in the tightly contested midsize SUV segment. The Okavango is also the brand’s first seven-seater vehicle in its local model lineup.  

That said, the Geely Okavango has a few tricks up its sleeve. Not only can it comfortably seat seven, but this model’s seats can be configured in 19 different ways.

With all the rear seats folded down, the Okavango can also provide a pretty substantial maximum cargo capacity of 2,050-liters. This vehicle also comes with a three-zone air-conditioning system with independent controls.

Look at all that space

According to a report by Autoindustriya.com, the 2021 Okavango will have two variants, Comfort and Urban. Looking at the specs, both variants are well equipped. The top-spec Urban variant comes with six airbags, leather-clad power-adjustable seats, eight speakers, and a 360-degree panoramic camera.

It also has auto headlamp control, and electronically folding side mirrors. On the other hand, the entry-level variant comes with dual-front airbags, a reverse camera, fabric seats with manual adjustment, and only four speakers.

Both variants, however, come standard with a 10.25-inch touchscreen with QD link, hill descent assist, hill-start assist, tire pressure monitoring, LED headlamps, LED fog lamps, and an electronic parking brake.

The Okavango's modern-looking cockpit

The Okavango is powered by a turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder gasoline engine that’s paired with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system. The said powerplant is paired with a dual-clutch automatic transmission, and it can make up to 190 horsepower and 300 Nm of torque.

Of note, the Okavango comes with the same engine as the one seen in the Geely Azkarra, which is Geely’s challenger in the five-seater compact crossover segment.

Moreover, Geely PH is already accepting orders for the 2021 Okavango. If you ordered an Okavango now, you can also get up to Php 90,000 off of its price, plus a three-year periodic maintenance package which includes labor, oil change sessions, and parts replacement.

The expected pricing for the 2021 Okavango starts at Php 1,208,000 for the Comfort variant while the Urban variant gets a price tag of Php 1,328,000.
