On the news front, buzz continues to build around ZEEKR's upcoming models. The strategic flagship ZEEKR 8X is now slated to hold its technology launch on the evening of March 16. Hailed by netizens as "the most anticipated car of 2026," it will debut the latest Qianli Haohan G-ASD advanced driver-assistance system. Under the hood, the ZEEKR 8X features the world's only full-stack 900V high-voltage powertrain in the hybrid sector, offering a combined range of over 1,000 kilometers and supporting 6C ultra-fast charging. Meanwhile, the ZEEKR 9X continues to see strong demand since its launch, with wait times stretching to several weeks, driving the brand's sales higher.
Meanwhile, Geely Auto is set to release its 2025 annual earnings report on March 18. Consensus among analysts points to double-digit growth in full-year net profit, driven by ZEEKR's rising sales and improved gross margins. Analysts note that ZEEKR has emerged as a new growth engine for the Geely Group, marking significant progress in its premiumization strategy.
Market observers suggest that as the penetration rate of new-energy vehicles continues to climb, Geely's dual-track strategy—combining battery-electric and hybrid technologies—offers a distinct advantage. Coupled with ZEEKR's upward push into premium segments, the company's valuation still has room to run.
At the time of publication, Geely Auto stood at 17.48 Hong Kong dollars, up 8.77%, with turnover exceeding 188.541 billion Hong Kong dollars.
