The Geely Azkarra is the Chinese automaker’s entry into a crowded compact crossover sport utility vehicle (SUV) segment.
This segment includes the likes of the Ford Territory, Chery Tiggo 7, and the more established nameplates such as the Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-5, Subaru Forester, and Toyota RAV4.
Given the entries mentioned above, what does the Azkarra have that the rest of its foes do not?
The automatic transmission has some inconsistencies. At times, it’s raring to go out and help the three-cylinder stretch its legs. In other instances, the slushbox tends to dawdle before providing a decent response.
Ride comfort is firm bordering on hard, a tradeoff of the 18-inch above rim-tire combo.
The Geely Azkarra may have some deficiencies, particularly regarding the engine transmission link and the in-car infotainment. Despite those, the China-oriented sport-ute is a good option in the crowded segment. However, this poster recommends trying out every competitor in a particular automotive class – and not falling in love with a specific brand after reading just one review.
