Gleagle

Gleagle (Chinese: 全球鹰; pinyin: Quánqiú Yīng) was an entry-level brand of automobiles manufactured by Geely.^[1] Some Gleagle cars, such as the Gleagle Panda, were available for sale on the Internet in China via the Taobao Mall, a popular e-commerce site.^[2][3] While Geely would deliver the car to the customer's address, buying one of the Panda models on offer did necessitate a trip to a traditional dealer.^[4] This sub-brand was discontinued in 2015; most products continued to be sold directly under the Geely brand.
