The Geely Galaxy Starshine 6 (Chinese: 吉利银河星耀6; pinyin: Jílì Yínhe Xīngyào 6) is a plug-in hybrid mid-size sedan manufactured by Geely Auto under the Geely Galaxy marque.

The Starshine 6 is positioned as a budget alternative to the Starshine 8. While being smaller, it still classifies as a mid-size sedan. The dimensions are similar to that of the Galaxy L6.

Design

In comparisson with the other Geely Galaxy models, the Starshine 6 uses a chrome-plated grille and headlights reminiscent of the mainline Geely models. A decently-sized air intake is present on the Starshine 6 alongside a light bar at the back. The Starshine 6 uses traditional door handles like the L7 and Starship 7. The Starshine 6 is expected to come with 16 and 17 inch wheels.[1]

Powertrain

The Starshine 6 adopts the EM-i 2.0 AI Hybrid system pairing a 1.5 liter naturally aspirated inline 4 known as the BHE15-BFN that produces 110 horsepower. No information about the electric motor is known, however the peak output of the electric motor in other models using the EM-i 2.0 AI Hybrid system is 235 horsepower. The battery is an 8.5 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery produced by CALB. The electric range of the Starshine 6 is 100 kilometers or 62 miles.[2]
