Geely Boyue L: compact SUV, engines and trims
Geely Boyue L — the third-generation Boyue SUV, unveiled in August 2022. In export markets, it goes by the name Starray or Atlas. We take a look at the engines on offer, how the generations differ, and what you need to know before buying.
Boyue L in brief
The Boyue L (internal code FX11) is built on the CMA platform, which is also used by the Xingyue and Xingyue L (export name Monjaro). It was introduced as a model between the first-generation Boyue and the larger Xingyue L.
In export markets, the Boyue L is sold as the Geely Starray or Geely Atlas. It hasn't gained widespread popularity in Lithuania, and used examples are scarce.
Generations — what's the difference
The first Boyue generation (2016) was sold in Malaysia as the Proton X70, the second (2019) as the Boyue Pro / Azkarra, and the third as the Boyue L (2022). The Boyue L is larger than the later, smaller Boyue (formerly Boyue Cool), which is built on a different, BMA platform.
In April 2025, an updated generation was unveiled with revised front and rear ends, slightly longer dimensions, and a more modern interior: a 15.4-inch central screen and a large AR HUD.
Engines and transmissions
The Boyue L is offered with a 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine (around 218 PS) and a 1.5-litre turbo engine (around 184 PS); both are paired with a 7-speed DCT gearbox. There are also hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions with Geely DHT transmission.
The more powerful 2.0-litre version is for those who prioritise performance, while the 1.5-litre is the more economical daily driver. If you're considering a hybrid, assess whether you can regularly charge it.
What to check when buying a Boyue L
Since the car is new, the most important thing is to verify the source: whether it is officially imported, has a warranty, and where it can be serviced. Check if the parts and software are tailored to the European market.
In all cars, check the multimedia functionality and software updates, and in hybrid versions, the battery condition and charging port.
Trim levels
Trim level names vary by country in the European market; therefore, we provide descriptions based on the engine.
