Zeekr has just announced on LinkedIn that it’s officially live in Poland, and it arrives with five models from day one. According to its official website, the brand is now available in 18 European countries, and Poland is among the newest.
Behind the launch is AutoWallis, the Hungarian group that sells Nio and Farizon in Poland. According to AutoWallis’s announcement, it’s introducing Zeekr in Poland together with Portugal’s Salvador Caetano Group, and Zeekr’s Polish website is run by AutoWallis Caetano Holding. Salvador Caetano is also Zeekr’s importer in Spain and Portugal, so it has experience with the brand, and that know how will probably help with faster integration and staff training. One detail I noticed is that AutoWallis listed six models including the 8X, while Zeekr’s own post names only five, which could be a simple mistake, or the 8X may just be introduced at a later stage.
Zeekr’s Polish lineup starts with the X and tops out at the 9X, with the Zeekr 001 shooting brake, the 7X SUV and the 7GT estate in between. Here’s how they compare, using the figures Zeekr publishes for Europe.
| Specifications | Zeekr X | Zeekr 001 | Zeekr 7X | Zeekr 7GT | Zeekr 9X |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Body type | Compact SUV | Shooting brake | Mid size SUV | GT estate | Full size luxury SUV (six seats) |
| Powertrain | Battery electric | Battery electric | Battery electric | Battery electric | Plug in hybrid |
| Maximum power | 365 kW (496 PS) | 580 kW (789 PS) | 475 kW (646 PS) | 475 kW (646 PS) | 660 kW (897 PS) |
| Range | 446 km WLTP | 620 km WLTP | 615 km WLTP | 655 km WLTP | 737 km combined (about 179 km electric) |
| 0 to 100 km/h (fastest version) | 3.8 s | 3.8 s | 3.8 s | 3.3 s | 4.1 s |
| DC charging 10 to 80% | 29 min | 30 min | 13 to 16 min | 13 to 16 min | 9.5 min |
Unlike the other four models, the 9X isn’t electric but a plug in hybrid, where a 2.0 litre turbo petrol engine works as a generator, and according to Zeekr, Europe gets it as a six seater in Ultra trim. A hybrid also stays outside the duties the EU applies to battery electric cars built in China, as Automotive World points out.
Zeekr’s official Polish website still describes the brand as coming soon and lets buyers register for early access, but it lists no prices, dealer locations or delivery dates. I’ll update this article as soon as pricing is announced.
