ZEEKR, the premium electric mobility brand from Geely Holding Group, has reached another milestone with the shipment of its first consignment of vehicles destined for Europe.
Following the start of pre-orders in the Netherlands and Sweden, the response from customers for the ZEEKR 001 luxury Shooting Brake has been exceptional. The initial batch of European-specification models, comprising 288 vehicles, set sail on 28 August and will arrive in a few weeks’ time, ahead of start of deliveries in the autumn.
Building on its success in the Netherlands and Sweden, ZEEKR will grow its presence to six countries in 2024, with the ambition to expand into most countries in Western Europe by 2026. In doing so, ZEEKR will progressively strengthen its presence in the world’s most established luxury car market, as it forges ahead with its strategy of global growth.
The ZEEKR 001 luxury Shooting Brake, in 400kW (544hp), 686Nm, dual-motor all-wheel drive Performance and Privilege specification, can accelerate from 0-100km/h in just 3.8 seconds. Featuring the same 100kWh battery, the single motor rear-wheel drive Long Range version can travel up to 620km (WLTP) on a single charge, making range anxiety a thing of the past. Offering the speed and convenience of 200kW DC fast charging, replenishing the battery from 0-80% takes just 30 minutes.
To ensure that the buying and ownership experience is just as good, ZEEKR customers will benefit from a direct-to-customer model and a new, One-Stop Shop approach, built around four key pillars: ZEEKR Finance, offering a range of options for private and business customers, ZEEKR Power, offering a complete charging solution, including wall box installation3 and seamless access to a Pan-European public charging network, ZEEKR Care, offering a service program and a 5+5 year/ 200,000km warranty, and finally ZEEKR Connect, offering 5G connectivity, access to popular apps, and regular over-the-air updates.
