The livery pattern, featuring the letters Z and X, suggests the vehicle might be named ZX or XZ. The images reveal potential styling cues like flush-fitting door handles and low-set headlights. A lip above the front window hints at a LiDAR sensor, indicating advanced self-driving capabilities.

Expected to use the SEA 1 platform from Geely, the SUV will share architecture with the mid-sized 007 sedan, promising robust performance with a double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension.

Founded in 2021, Zeekr is a sister brand to Polestar and Volvo, all under the Geely umbrella.
