Zeekr has achieved a significant milestone with the 200,000th delivery of its Zeekr 001 shooting brake model, underscoring its success in the electric vehicle (EV) market. The delivery took place at the company’s plant in Ningbo, Zhejiang province, where a ceremony was held to commemorate the occasion.
Launched on April 15, 2021, the Zeekr 001 has become a key model for Zeekr, with deliveries commencing in October 2021. Despite the niche market for shooting brake models in China, the Zeekr 001 has proven to be a successful venture, delivering 76,246 units in 2023, significantly contributing to Zeekr’s overall sales.
