History
The car was previewed as the ICON SUV Concept at the 2018 Beijing Auto Show. The car was designed in Geely Design's studio in Shanghai under the lead of the centre's design chief, Guy Burgoyne. The Icon was launched through an online streaming platform at the height of COVID-19 pandemic in China. As a response, the car was released with an 'Intelligent Air Purification System' that was claimed as N95 certified. The feature was claimed to work in tandem with the Icon's air conditioner to isolate and eliminate harmful elements in the cabin air including bacteria and viruses. The car is equipped with level two driver-assist features enabled by 12 ultrasonic radars, millimetre wave radar, and five cameras. It features adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assistance, autonomous emergency braking and pedestrian recognition, one-button automatic parking, and a 360-degree camera. Geely Auto received over 30,000 orders in the hours leading up to its launch through online pre-order.
Powertrain
The Geely Icon is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine that produces 175 hp (130 kW; 177 PS) and 255 N⋅m (188 lb⋅ft) of torque. A mild hybrid setup is available with a 48V electric system that ups the total output to 188 hp (140 kW; 191 PS) and 300 N⋅m (221 lb⋅ft).

The 0–100 km/h (0-62 mph) acceleration is in 7.9 seconds.
