A Chinese car maker has joined forces with Arnold Clark and will sell its vehicles in Carlisle.
Geely is set to enter the UK market and will be based at four branches in the UK, including on Carlisle’s Kingstown Industrial Estate.
In 2010, the Geely Holding Group acquired Volvo Cars, adding it to their other owned brands, including Lotus and Polestar.
One of the first models on show and available to test drive at branches will be the Geely EX5, a fully electric SUV.
Gavin McKenzie, group brand director at Arnold Clark, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Geely to the Arnold Clark family.
“As a brand renowned for forward-thinking design and innovation, the Geely EX5 is already proving to be very popular and has received great feedback.
“We look forward to bringing Geely’s exciting products to drivers across the UK.”
