Zeekr

The Zeekr 8X hybrid SUV is expected to debut in the first quarter of next year, with pricing starting at around RMB 400,000 ($56,580).

Zeekr will establish its first showroom in Seoul as early as the first quarter of next year and begin sales, with the Zeekr 7X SUV likely to be its first model there.

The Zeekr brand delivered a record 28,843 vehicles in November, marking a 6.78 percent year-on-year increase and reversing three consecutive months of declines.

The Zeekr 9X has become a new choice for luxury car buyers, with an average sales price of RMB 538,000 ($75,640), Zeekr said.

Zeekr Group reported a net loss of RMB 307 million ($43 million) in the third quarter, down 84.9 percent from RMB 2.028 billion in the third quarter 2024.

The updated Zeekr X starts at RMB 145,800 ($20,460) after limited-time incentives, offering over 530 km of CLTC range.

Since late September, Zeekr has launched the 9X hybrid SUV and updated the Zeekr 001 shooting brake and Zeekr 7X SUV.

The Zeekr brand delivered 21,423 vehicles in October, a 14.48 percent year-on-year decline; Lynk & Co delivered 40,213 units, a 29.41 percent year-on-year increase.

The updated Zeekr 7X starts at RMB 229,800 ($32,370), with its most powerful variant capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.98 seconds.

The change of plan comes after Zeekr's intensive rollout of new models over the past month.
