Geely di Luar Tiongkok
Geely adalah perusahaan otomotif Tiongkok pertama yang memamerkan produknya di ajang Frankfurt Motor Show 2005. Produsen itu memamerkan hatchback Haoqing dan Merrie, sedan Uliou dan Free Cruiser dan sebuah coupe berlabel Beauty Leopard. Pada tahun 2006, Geely kembali membuat gebrakan dengan menjadi perusahaan otomotif Tiongkok yang memamerkan produknya di Amerika Serikat melalui Detroit Motor Show. Geely berencana menjual produknya di AS tahun 2008, tetapi karena kegagalannya di serangkaian tes tabrakan dan tes emisi AS, Geely baru memulai debutnya di AS tahun 2010.
Geely sebenarnya juga akan menjual produknya secara massal di pasar Eropa tahun 2007, tetapi mereka harus mengikuti standar Euro IV dan tes tabrakan Euro NCAP terlebih dahulu.
