Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer Zeekr set a new monthly delivery record in October, fueled by strong demand for its latest model, the Zeekr X.
The company reported 25,049 vehicle deliveries for the month, up from the previous record of 21,333 units in September, reflecting a 91.55% year-on-year increase and a 17.42% jump from the prior month.
From January to October, Zeekr delivered a total of 167,922 vehicles, an 82.32% increase compared to the same period last year. The automaker is targeting around 230,000 deliveries for the full year, meaning it will need to average approximately 31,000 vehicles per month in November and December to meet that goal.
Founded in March 2021, Zeekr quickly entered the EV market with its debut model, the Zeekr 001, launched in April 2021 with deliveries beginning in October 2021. The company’s current lineup also includes the Zeekr 007, Zeekr 009, Zeekr X, Zeekr 7X, and Zeekr Mix, which together span both niche and mainstream EV segments.
Models such as the Zeekr 001 shooting brake, Zeekr 009 MPV, and Zeekr Mix five-seater cater to specific market niches, while the Zeekr 007 sedan and Zeekr 7X SUV target the broader EV market.

The Zeekr 7X, launched in late September, saw rapid market uptake, with the company announcing that its deliveries crossed 10,000 units by October 15, just 25 days post-launch.
Most recently, the Zeekr Mix five-seater was released on October 23, starting at RMB 279,900 ($39,290). Zeekr has taken a unique approach with the Mix, positioning it without a specific segment classification, instead exploring a new market category.
