Riding on Geely's SEA (Sustainable Experience Architecture) platform, the ZEEKR 001 is the mass-produced version of the Lynk & Co ZERO concept, which made its debut at the Auto China 2020, according to Geely Holding. Presale of the new model will kick off in the near future.

ZEEKR will adopt innovative business models, such as building all-new direct-sale channels and a self-owned full-scenarios energy supply service system, to integrate fashion lifestyles and technologies, and offer more values to users, said Geely Holding.
