Geely M7 specs: what the trim name does not tell you
A photograph can tell you whether you like a car. It cannot tell you which equipment is included in the version you are considering.
If you have been comparing Chinese cars online, you have probably saved a screenshot with the model name, a range figure and a price. Keep it—but ask for the version sheet as well. Two listings can describe the same model family without describing the same car.
Start with the full version, not just “M7”
Geely’s China-market M7 page separates four 225 km versions. Its equipment highlights differ: the upper versions list H3 driver assistance, while the Pilot version lists basic assistance. Seat and audio features also differ across the listed versions. These are manufacturer listings, not confirmation of a vehicle available from Harmo Auto. Source: Geely Galaxy M7.
Our M7 reference page is a starting point. Before comparing a specific offer, write down its model year, market version and full trim name. If the name has been translated, keep the original Chinese name beside it.
Learn the small marks in a configuration table
A feature listed down the left side of a table is not necessarily fitted to every version. Read the column for the trim in question and the key printed on that document. Do not assume that a dot, dash or circle has the same meaning in every supplier’s spreadsheet.
Geely’s published Starship 7 specification sheet illustrates why this matters: its columns distinguish equipment between versions, and some entries carry limited-time offer notes. It also labels electric range as CLTC and specifies a state-of-charge interval for charging time. That document describes Starship 7; its figures must not be copied into an M7 offer.

Turn an attractive listing into a clear comparison
Make a short list of what you actually need. For example: heated or ventilated seats, the number of seats, a particular assistance function, or a charging requirement. Mark each item “confirmed”, “optional” or “not yet confirmed”. Keep an unanswered item open rather than treating a promotional photograph as proof.
For a range claim, record whether it refers to electric-only or combined range and retain the named test cycle. For a charging claim, ask for the battery version and the conditions behind the quoted time. These details help you compare like with like; they do not predict your own driving result.
You do not need to know every technical term before asking a question. Send the model link or screenshot and the features that matter to you. Lucas can help clarify which details still need checking before a quotation is agreed.
