Geely has begun retailing its new flagship Monjaro crossover in Russia, a move confirmed by the brand’s press service. The announcement marks the vehicle’s entry into the local market with an initial lineup designed to appeal to buyers seeking a premium all-terrain experience combined with modern technology and comfortable daily usability.
In Russia, the Monjaro is offered in three distinct trim levels, each tailored to different preferences and budgets. The entry model, titled Luxury, carries a price point of 4.5 million rubles, followed by Flarship at 4.7 million rubles, and the top-tier Special configuration at 4.8 million rubles. These options provide a clear progression in equipment and refinement, helping customers choose a balance between value and features that suit their lifestyle and road conditions.
Under the hood, the Monjaro is powered by a robust two-liter turbocharged engine delivering 238 horsepower. The drive is channeled through an eight-speed automatic transmission to all four wheels, which supports confident acceleration and steady highway cruising. In terms of efficiency, the crossover achieves a combined fuel consumption figure of 8.5 liters per 100 kilometers, reflecting a balance between performance and everyday practicality for long trips and urban commutes alike [Geely press service].
On the safety and handling front, the base package includes essential electronic stability control, anti-lock braking with distribution of braking force, and rollover protection to enhance occupant safety in diverse driving scenarios. These core features establish a solid foundation for the vehicle within its segment and underscore Geely’s emphasis on reliability and driver confidence across varying road conditions.
The flagship configuration introduces several advanced chassis and comfort technologies, including Geely’s G-Pilot intelligent driving system and a sophisticated parking setup featuring twelve sensors and an enhanced parking assistant. Additional refinements such as active noise cancellation and a premium audio system with ten speakers contribute to a refined cabin ambience, elevating the overall driving experience while commuting or taking longer journeys during weekends [Geely press service].

Features include a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a two-tone black leather interior treatment, a smart key system, and stylish 20-inch alloy wheels that convey a more premium presence. Across all configurations, the Monjaro maintains a standard of safety attention with six airbags installed to protect occupants in the event of a collision, reinforcing the model’s family-friendly emphasis and robust peace of mind for drivers and passengers alike.
