Since the end of 2021, ZEEKR has delivered over 240,000 units of the ZEEKR 001 and ZEEKR 009 models, both equipped with Mobileye's SuperVision™ solution, to customers in China and worldwide. To better meet the growing demand in the Chinese market, the companies plan to expedite the large-scale deployment and delivery of the core technologies of the Mobileye SuperVision™ platform.

With the deepened collaboration, ZEEKR will be able to apply Mobileye's robust road network intelligence technology across its related vehicle models. Its engineers will also have improved access to Mobileye's technology and development tools for data validation, enabling more efficient software upgrade services for customers. Additionally, the duo's collaborative experience will help accelerate Mobileye's deployment of comprehensive autonomous driving solutions for other clients in China.

The partnership will also work on the localization of other key Mobileye technologies, such as the Mobileye DXP driving experience platform, which allows automakers to customize autonomous driving styles and user experiences.

Moreover, leveraging ZEEKR's vehicle manufacturing technology and Mobileye's autonomous driving technology, the companies will introduce next-generation advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), automation, and driverless vehicle products (ranging from L2+ to L4 levels) to the global market, based on the EyeQ6H system-on-chip.

ZEEKR plans to deploy the SuperVision™ solution across more vehicle models and next-generation manufacturing platforms, expanding the coverage of its existing NZP (Navigation Zeekr Pilot) autonomous navigation assistance system on highways and urban roads. Currently, the highway NZP, based on SuperVision™, is active in more than 150 cities across China.

According to Mobileye , to date, the majority of the NZP mileage accumulated by ZEEKR users has come from the ZEEKR 001 and ZEEKR 009 models equipped with Mobileye's SuperVision™ solution.
