The Azkarra is primarily driven by a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, aided by an all-wheel-drive 48V EMS (Electric Motor Synergy) hybrid power mill in the Luxury trim. Electrified features such as a 48V belt-starter generator, 48V lithium-ion battery module, a 48V-12 DCDC converter, and battery management system helps the top-ranging Azkarra reach a combined power output of 190hp and 300Nm of torque.

The Azkarra Premium on the other hand, is driven solely by the 1.5L engine, delivering an all-gasoline power of 177hp and 255Nm.

Exterior-wise, the Azkarra exudes a bold look, courtesy of a raised hood and a more pronounced grille displaying the brand’s Expanding Cosmos design philosophy while being encased by deep-set smart LED headlamps. At the sides, the air intakes are functional and more than just for show, according to Geely, stretching across the horizontal width of the car and thereby enhancing the SUV aerodynamic performance. Out back, smart LED taillamps complement the ones found at the front.

Inside, the Azkarra immediately conveys more spaciousness, elevated by an elegant contemporary design. The air vents in particular, display a sort of “wrap-around” look, pushing into the doors and further enhancing the perceived space. Meanwhile, fluid interlacing character lines are well-placed inside the cabin to help enhance visual depth throughout.
