Feature Showdown

Equipment few rivals have, on either carShowHide
Drivetrain
The Geely EX5 runs a pure electric powertrain producing 160kW and 320Nm of torque, sent through its transmission to a FWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 6.9 seconds.
The Jeep Wrangler responds with a Petrol I4 Turbo making 200kW and 400Nm, paired to a 8-speed automatic driving all four wheels. It gets to 100km/h in 9.3 seconds.
The Jeep Wrangler has the clear power advantage at 200kW vs 160kW. In the 0-100 sprint (manufacturer-claimed), the Geely EX5 is 2.4s quicker. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.
Space & Comfort
The Geely EX5 measures 4,615mm long on a 2,750mm wheelbase, 281mm longer than the Jeep Wrangler at 4,334mm (2,459mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the Geely EX5 generally means more rear legroom.
Boot space is 302L in the Geely EX5 and 365L in the Jeep Wrangler, giving the Jeep Wrangler a 63L advantage. The Geely EX5 seats 5 vs 4.
Neither U-turns in one sweep on a 7 m local street (both need a three-point turn); the Jeep Wrangler's turning circle is 0.8 m tighter, 10.0 m against 10.8 m kerb to kerb. The street estimate is indicative, worked from the published turning circles.
Cost to own
At 15,000 km a year, electricity for the Geely EX5 costs about $768 a year (16 kWh/100km) and fuel for the Jeep Wrangler about $2,907 a year (10.2 L/100km), at $1.90 a litre and 32c a kWh.
Warranty: 7 years / Unlimited (Geely EX5) and 5 years / 100k km (Jeep Wrangler). Capped-price servicing: no data (Geely EX5), 5 years (Jeep Wrangler).
Where each one leads
The Geely EX5: the lower starting price ($41,990 against $81,990) and the longer warranty (7 years against 5).
The Jeep Wrangler: more power (200kW against 160kW) and the bigger boot with the seats up (365L against 302L).
The Verdict
Geely EX5 scores higher, 72 vs 60
The Geely EX5 scores 72 to the Jeep Wrangler's 60 on the CarSorted Score, and leads 4 of the 6 spec rows that separate them, at the lower price. The biggest gaps: value (Geely EX5 ahead by 24 points), safety (Geely EX5 ahead by 18 points). Boot space with the seats up: 302L in the Geely EX5, 365L in the Jeep Wrangler. Warranty: 7 years on the Geely EX5, 5 on the Jeep Wrangler.

How to read this page. Prices, specifications, ANCAP ratings, warranty, the CarSorted Score and the verdict come from our records for the grades shown, sourced from the manufacturers' Australian documents, and change when those records change; the date each was last checked is printed under the headline. Prices are recommended retail prices before on-road costs unless marked drive-away. A plug-in hybrid's fuel figure is labelled with its basis: with a full battery (the certified combined figure) or as a hybrid (battery depleted). Charging and running costs are estimates on the stated assumptions. Always confirm price and specification with the manufacturer or dealer before you buy. CarSorted does not accept payment for recommendations.
