Geely's volume entry into the NZ small-SUV bracket.
Last reviewed: 23 April 2026
The Coolray is Geely's small petrol SUV and the volume entry point to the brand in New Zealand, priced from around $30,000 drive-away through Geely NZ dealers. It targets the same value-SUV shopper who would otherwise cross-shop an MG ZS, a Haval Jolion, or a Chery Tiggo 4 Pro, with a slightly more upmarket interior positioning than the cheapest rivals. NZ used supply is effectively zero in 2026 because the model is too new, so the finance conversation is almost entirely about new or nearly-new NZ-new stock through the limited Geely dealer footprint.

Financing notes
At $30,000 across a four-year term at an indicative 8.5% standard secured-car rate, the weekly lands around $173, or $750 a month. Shortening to three years pushes the weekly up to around $218 but cuts total interest by nearly half. Most NZ lenders fund a new or recent NZ-new Coolray without friction provided the application sits on the standard secured-car rate; the Coolray does not qualify for EV tier pricing as a petrol vehicle.
Model-specific questions
All three sit in the same small-SUV Chinese-brand bracket at most NZ lenders, so rates tend to align within a narrow band. MG has the deepest NZ residual data (sold here since 2020), Chery has three years of local relaunch history, and Geely is the newest with the thinnest dealer network. On the finance view, MG currently has the slight residual edge; Geely's Coolray is more about interior positioning than finance cost.
Servicing, fuel consumption, and tyre costs run broadly similar on the Coolray and Haval Jolion, both on 1.5-litre turbo petrol drivetrains and shared NZ pump pricing. Insurance tends to run slightly higher on the Coolray because Geely is newer to NZ insurer repair datasets, typically by $100 to $250 a year. Real-world ownership reports on both are still building.

Disclaimer
A car loan is a commitment that runs for years, and repayments come out of the same pay cheque as everything else. Before committing, it is worth modelling the weekly and monthly cost against the household budget, which is what this site is built to help with. Borrowing at a level that stays comfortable on a bad week, not a good one, is widely regarded as the safer frame.
Carfinance.org.nz earns a commission from a partner brand when a visitor applies through this site and their application is approved. That commission is paid by the partner, not the applicant, and it does not influence the rate the lender offers. We refer every visitor to the same partner because they compare multiple New Zealand lenders on the applicant's behalf, so the recommendation is not driven by a sponsored deal. Every figure shown on this site is a modelled estimate based on the inputs entered; the actual rate, fees, and repayments are set by the lender after assessing the applicant's circumstances and own credit decision. Carfinance.org.nz is a calculator and information tool. We are not a lender, not a broker, and not a registered financial adviser. Any decision about whether a specific loan suits a specific situation is best made after talking with the lender, and for amounts that materially affect the household, with a registered financial adviser.
