Zeekr Group, a leading player in the electric vehicle market, has reported a significant growth in vehicle deliveries for the month of August. Despite a slight decline in deliveries for the Zeekr brand, the overall performance of the group has been commendable.
According to the latest data released by Zeekr Group, a total of 44,843 vehicles were delivered in August, marking a 10.61 percent increase compared to the same period last year. This also represents a 1.47 percent growth from the previous month of July.
The Zeekr brand, a subsidiary of Zeekr Group, delivered 17,626 vehicles in August. While this figure reflects a 2.16 percent decline year-on-year, there was a positive uptick of 3.82 percent from July. On the other hand, Lynk & Co, another brand under the Zeekr Group umbrella, reported a strong performance with 27,217 units delivered in August, representing a robust 20.81 percent growth year-on-year.

In terms of product offerings, Zeekr recently announced the commencement of pre-sales for its Zeekr 9X large luxury hybrid SUV. This model, which made its debut at the 2025 Chengdu auto show, is set to officially hit the market next month. With a starting price of RMB 479,900 ($67,280) during pre-sales, the Zeekr 9X positions itself as one of the premium offerings from a Chinese domestic automaker.
Overall, the performance of Zeekr Group in August underscores its continued growth trajectory in the competitive electric vehicle market. With a diverse portfolio of brands and products, the group is well-positioned to capitalize on the evolving preferences of consumers and drive further growth in the future.
