Geely Englon SC7: The Chinese sedan known as Haijing
Geely SC7 — the Englon brand sedan, also called Haijing. It was sold in the Chinese market and is considered an early model in the Geely family. We look at what makes it special and what you need to know if you come across one.
SC7 in brief
SC7 (Englon SC7, also known as Haijing) was created by Shanghai Maple Motors and launched around 2009. It is related to the early Geely Yuanjing sedan.
It's very rare in Lithuania, so when buying, rely on documentation and condition checks, not market experience.
What sets it apart
The SC7 was offered as a simple, spacious sedan with a boot. Higher trims came with front and rear parking sensors.
The design met Chinese standards of the time, but the safety and comfort levels now seem basic.
Engines and transmissions
The top trims had a 1.8-litre turbo engine with a 6-speed automatic transmission supplied by DSI. Check other trims' transmissions via documentation.
Check lower trims' engines and transmissions via the specific car's documentation.
What to check when buying
First, ensure the car was officially imported and has all the necessary documents. Verify that the chassis numbers match the records.
Inspect for corrosion, check the suspension, engine, and transmission operation, as well as electronic systems. Some parts may need to be ordered from abroad.
