CMA

Compact Modular Architecture

Born as a hybrid platform, developed into a full-fledged EV base. The XC40/C40 (now EX40/EC40) and Polestar 2 show how a platform can fundamentally improve within its lifespan: from front-wheel to rear-wheel drive, with major leaps in range and charging speed.

CMA is the EV platform of Geely Group, in production since 2020, with a 400V architecture. The CMA platform carries 3 models from 2 brands. The WLTP range of the current variants on CMA runs from 479 to 659 km.
