"Global Eagle Automobile" is the core automobile brand of Geely Holding Group. On November 6, 2008, Geely Holding officially released a new sub-brand "Global Hawk - GLEAGLE". This is an important measure of the strategic transformation of Geely Holdings' brand strategy. At the Guangzhou Auto Show in 2008, the Geely Panda was officially launched as the first model under the "Global Hawk" brand. The Global Hawk symbolizes "vitality, breakthrough and splendor". The models under the Global Hawk brand include: Global Hawk GX7, Global Hawk GC7, Global Hawk GX2, Vision and other models.

The overall outline of Global Hawk Auto's brand logo is an ellipse, which is a figure with both dynamic and stable features, and symbolizes the background of globalization, implying Geely's dynamic and stable development prospects in the global market. The oval shape is like a horn, implying Geely's pioneering, forging ahead, loyalty and sense of mission. The middle part of the logo is a variant of Geely's initial letter "G", and it is also in the shape of the Arabic numeral "6". "6" contains the meaning of "auspicious and smooth" in traditional Chinese culture. The shape of the global eagle shows that in the new stage, Geely Holdings is ready to go with a new passion and attitude, and emerges in the continuous self-cultivation.
