The Geely Yuanjing sedan went through a few facelifts with code names FC, FC2, and the FC3 launched in late 2017. The side profile closely resembles the Toyota Corolla from the 2000s throughout the FC, FC2, and FC3 facelifts.[4] The FC2 has completely redesigned front and rear DRGs which requires new front and rear fenders. However, the rest of the vehicle especially the side profile remains unchanged due to the base being the old FC platform. The FC2 is sometimes referred as the second generation Geely Yuanjing or Geely Yuanjing II.

Third Generation (FC3,2018-)

{{Infobox Automobile |name = Geely Yuanjing |image = Geely Yuanjing 02 (cropped).jpg |caption = 2018 Geely Yuanjing |manufacturer = Geely | The second facelift was done in late 2017, code named the FC3. Just like the previous facelift, the platform remains unchanged, and this time the old front and rear fenders of the FC2 was also preserved as the edge of the front and tail lamps remains unchanged. Changes on the front are subtile while the tail lamp was redesigned to be positioned horizontally and keeping the original boundaries of the FC2 generation, the rear license plate was also moved downwards onto the rear bumper. The FC3 is sometimes referred as the third generation Geely Yuanjing or Geely Yuanjing III.
