The Zeekr 001 enters the Saudi market with a fresh identity that stands apart from traditional electric vehicles, offering a new vision of modern luxury and advanced performance tailored to the lifestyle of men in the GCC region. As part of Geely’s premium electric brand, Zeekr, the 001 targets buyers seeking a striking design, cutting edge technology, and a sporty character without relying on the familiar European names. It arrives with features suited for daily use in Saudi cities and long distance travel between Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam, supported by the country’s growing charging infrastructure.

A Design That Blends Luxury with Boldness

The Zeekr 001 embraces a distinctive “shooting brake” design philosophy that combines the sleek spirit of a coupe with the practicality of a hatchback. Its sharp lines and low, wide stance give it an instantly dynamic and sporty presence. The roofline slopes gently toward the rear, enhancing aerodynamics, while the slim front headlights create a futuristic identity influenced by Chinese innovation with subtle European refinement.

Inside, the cabin presents a premium environment crafted for passenger comfort with a strong focus on technology:

  • A large central screen for entertainment and connectivity

  • Digital driver displays

  • Soft touch interior materials with elegant ambient lighting

  • A larger display in the 2025 model with an upgraded interface

  • Augmented reality information projection on the windshield

Despite its sporty profile, the Zeekr 001 provides generous rear legroom, comfortable power adjustable seats, and practical cargo space suitable for weekend trips or daily commuting across Saudi cities.

An Electric Driving Experience Built for Saudi Roads

In its higher performance variants, the Zeekr 001 relies on a dual motor electric system that delivers substantial power and acceleration comparable to pricier European sports models. Its strong, instantaneous response enhances user confidence on long Saudi highways, offering a blend of speed and stability ideal for open road travel.

When it comes to battery capability, the Zeekr 001 features an advanced, high capacity pack designed for extended journeys across the Kingdom:

  • A battery nearing 100 kWh

  • An estimated range of 590–620 km depending on the version

  • Support for DC fast charging

  • Quick recovery of a significant portion of charge

This system makes the Zeekr 001 suitable for long daily commutes or intercity travel with minimal charging stops.

Smart Technologies Redefining Modern Luxury

Beyond its performance and range, the Zeekr 001 introduces a sophisticated layer of intelligent technologies that elevate the sense of safety, control, and refinement for the buyer. Its driver assistance suite includes a collection of advanced systems designed to enhance confidence on every journey:

  • Lane keeping assistance

  • Collision avoidance systems

  • Surround traffic monitoring

  • Adaptive smart suspension that adjusts automatically to road conditions

This advanced suspension setup improves stability and comfort both in city environments and on high speed highways, while the intelligent systems create an experience that feels futuristic, one that positions the Zeekr 001 as a forward thinking luxury EV on Saudi roads.
