Zeekr Launches Luxury SUVs into Key Overseas Markets

FUZHOU, China, Sept. 23, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- China's luxury electric vehicle brand Zeekr has embarked on a significant expansion into overseas markets, marking a new phase in the global presence of Chinese automotive brands. The company's flagship model, the ZEEKR 9X, has begun its first large-scale overseas shipment from Jiangyin Port Area of Fuzhou Port, destined for the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The ZEEKR 9X, equipped with the world's first Super Electric Hybrid (SEP) technology, is priced above RMB 800,000 in the UAE, positioning it as one of the most expensive Chinese vehicles in the region. This premium pricing reflects the vehicle's advanced technology and high-end features, setting it apart in the luxury SUV segment. The model has maintained a leading position among large SUVs priced above RMB 500,000 in terms of sales performance, customer recognition, and residual value.

In addition to the UAE, ZEEKR 9X is also expanding into key markets such as Central Asia, Europe, and Latin America. The Mansory-customized version of the ZEEKR 9X, priced above RMB 2.7 million overseas, has further solidified the brand's reputation as a luxury vehicle. Notably, despite tariffs of nearly 130% in the U.S. market, Zeekr has managed to import large volumes of vehicles, underscoring its global market strategy.

The ZEEKR 009, another premium model from the Zeekr brand, has also achieved significant success. It has become a leading luxury MPV in multiple international markets, demonstrating the brand's ability to compete with established luxury brands. Meanwhile, the ZEEKR 7X has outperformed the Tesla Model Y in several overseas regions, earning recognition as a premium version of the American electric vehicle.

From January to August 2026, Zeekr ranked first among China's premium automotive brands in overseas exports. Backed by Geely's nearly 30 years of automotive expertise and global resources, Zeekr has now entered more than 60 countries and regions, with nearly 800 stores worldwide. It has become the only Chinese luxury automotive brand to achieve vehicle deliveries across all five continents, further strengthening its global presence.

This expansion into high-value markets with high-value products has positioned Zeekr as a key player in the global luxury automotive market. The brand's success is a testament to its commitment to innovation and premium quality, setting a new standard for Chinese automotive brands in the international arena.
