Geely runs the most widely shared EV platform in the industry, and is now consolidating brands to match
SEA (Sustainable Experience Architecture, 2020) carries the Zeekr 001, 007 and 7X, the smart #1 and #3, the Lotus Eletre and Emeya (as EPA), the Polestar 4, the Volvo EX30 and Geely Galaxy E8. It comes in 400 V and 800 V versions, in size variants including SEA-E for large cars and SEA-M for MPVs such as the Zeekr 009. GEA (2024) is Geely Auto's lower-cost architecture for its own brand, covering the Galaxy E5 and the Geely EX2 (Xingyuan).
The Volvo side of the group runs separate platforms. SPA2 underpins the Volvo EX90 and ES90 and the Polestar 3, built in Ridgeville, South Carolina and in Chengdu and Daqing, China, with NVIDIA DRIVE Orin central computing and Volvo's own software stack. CMA, co-developed by Geely and Volvo, carries the EX40, EC40 and Polestar 2. Polestar's bonded-aluminum PMA debuted on the 800 V Polestar 5. Batteries come from CATL and from Geely's own LFP lines: the Golden Brick pack at Zeekr and the Aegis short-blade pack at Geely Auto.
Corporate structure is following the hardware. Geely Auto took Zeekr private and folded Lynk & Co under Zeekr in 2025, so the brands that share SEA now share one balance sheet. Chip supply leans on group affiliates: SiEngine for cockpit and driving chips, and ECARX for infotainment computers. See the Geely EV page.
