The new Geely Emgrand GX9 Pride SUV has been launched on the Chinese auto market. Price starts at 122.900 yuan and ends at 152.900 yuan, positioning the Emgrand GX9 at the high-end of the cheap-SUV market.

Unlike the exterior the interior did improve a lot, with a new instrument binnacle, a new center console with a large touch screen, and some nice wood and alu detailing. Compare to 2009.
