Maybe that&why Geely forced the export of the cross? Indeed, before, a lot of time usually passed between the debut of a fresh “Chinese” at home and the appearance of a model abroad. Inside, Geely Okavango also probably repeated the SUV available in China, although it is possible that the Filipinos will only be offered a seven-seater version (2 + 3 + 2), while at home the base crossover is a five-seater.
