Geely TT and Horse Powertrain: testing the global NEV story

Geely Automobile Holdings’ Narrative hinges on rolling out new energy vehicles with smarter tech while widening its international reach, and this latest TT launch plus Horse Powertrain push both speak directly to that bet.

"The integration of smart driving technologies, including AI applications and autonomous driving features, is expected to enhance the product offering, potentially leading to higher average selling prices and improved net margins..."

See how the full story points towards a HK$29.27 fair value for Geely Automobile Holdings.

The Geely TT sits squarely in the part of the thesis that leans on AI-led driving features and premium credentials. A Guinness World Record on wet-road drifting and standard LiDAR help reinforce the brand’s attempt to compete with Tesla and BYD on tech, not just price, which is important in a market where margin pressure is a known concern.

Horse Powertrain’s Detroit foothold speaks to the export and partnerships plank of the Narrative, alongside ventures in Europe. It suggests Geely is not betting solely on pure battery EVs, but also on supplying hybrid and range-extended systems to other automakers, which could diversify earnings but also brings execution risk if those collaborations do not scale as planned.

To make sense of launches like Geely TT or new joint-venture offices, you need a clear view of where Geely Automobile Holdings is trying to go, which is exactly what a well-formed Narrative is designed to map out.
