Zeekr, the premium electric vehicle brand under the Geely Holding Group umbrella, has officially released the first set of images for its upcoming flagship model, the Zeekr 9X. The vehicle, positioned as a full-size luxury SUV, introduces a new design language for the brand and is slated for its public premiere at the upcoming Auto Shanghai 2025. The Zeekr 9X adopts a commanding presence with its squared-off, robust lines and full-size proportions. The front fascia features a large grille with prominent vertical chrome bars, echoing the family design established by the Zeekr 009 MPV, aiming for a luxurious and restrained look. 

At the rear, the 9X is equipped with a distinctive “Ring Screen Star Diamond” through-type taillight assembly. Zeekr claims this intricate unit contains 43,343 individual diamond-cut facets, designed to be highly recognisable when illuminated. The taillight clusters are named the “Side Wing Star Diamond Matrix,” intended to complement the front-end design. 

The 9X will also introduce Zeekr’s “Super Electric Hybrid” technology. This powertrain system aims to merge the respective advantages of pure electric (BEV), plug-in hybrid (PHEV), and range-extender (EREV) technologies, promising disruptive innovation in performance, efficiency, and overall driving experience. Zeekr has officially stated that the 9X can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in the 3-second range, indicating potent performance credentials. 

While official pricing will be confirmed later, initial estimates suggest a starting price point around 500,000 yuan ($68,000). A potential high-end “Grand Edition” is speculated to approach the 1 million yuan ($136,000) mark. The Zeekr 9X will make its official public debut at Auto Shanghai 2025, which opens on April 23rd at the National Exhibition and Convention Centre.
