The Empow is GAC's sedan in Saudi Arabia and the sportiest thing the brand sells here — the top version reaches 100 km/h in under seven seconds, which is genuinely quick for a family four-door at this money.
Pick the engine first, then weigh a new car against the used Empows listed now.
How much does the GAC Empow cost in Saudi Arabia?
The two 2026 grades are separated by their engines rather than their trim. The GE 1.5L Turbo GDI (Base) at SAR 94,380 uses the turbocharged 1.5, and the Sport R 2.0L Turbo GDI (Top) at SAR 112,884 brings the 2.0-litre. The premium buys performance, so it is only worth paying if you will actually use it.
Which Empow grade is the one to buy?
The 1.5-litre car for most buyers: 170 hp is ample for commuting and highway work, and it leaves a meaningful sum unspent. The 2.0-litre version is the one to choose if the acceleration is the reason you are interested at all — it changes the character of the car rather than merely adding equipment to it.
GAC Empow or Geely Emgrand?
The Empow is the larger, better-equipped and considerably faster car, and as a sedan you actually enjoy driving it has no real competition at the price. The Geely Emgrand costs far less and comes from a brand with more years and more workshops behind it here, which is what protects your money when you sell.
Does the Empow hold its value?
Surprisingly well for a car this new to the Kingdom — around 63% after five years, ahead of the 51% we would expect for a compact sedan of the same age. A sporty saloon at a low price has a keen audience. The cars reaching CarSwitch for inspection sit at a median of around 35,000 km, still modest, so what matters on a specific example is how it was driven: tyres, brakes and a service record without gaps.
Is a used Empow the better buy?
The saving is real but modest. Used examples typically ask around SAR 70,000 to SAR 115,000, roughly 26% below the new entry price and about SAR 25,000 saved. Since the range spans two very different engines, check which one you are actually looking at before comparing prices, and treat the remaining warranty as part of the value.
