In Germany, the Zeekr 001 shooting brake is available for pre-sale at a price of 59,990 euros ($64,807), while the Zeekr X urban SUV can be pre-ordered for 44,990 euros. It’s worth noting that the prices in Europe are higher than those in China, where the Zeekr 001 starts at RMB 269,000 ($37,000) and the Zeekr X at RMB 188,900. The variation in pricing could be attributed to additional costs like transportation and taxes associated with the European market.

Zeekr’s first store in Germany is scheduled to open in the first half of 2024, coinciding with the commencement of vehicle deliveries.

The company unveiled its European strategy on April 18, announcing that its European headquarters would be located in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Following that, on June 27, Zeekr initiated pre-sales of the Zeekr 001 and Zeekr X in Sweden and the Netherlands, with deliveries slated to begin within the year.

In the Netherlands, Zeekr offers three versions of the Zeekr 001, priced at €59,490, €62,490, and €67,490, respectively. The Zeekr X is available in two versions with starting prices of €44,990 and €49,490.

In Sweden, the Zeekr 001 comes in three versions starting at SEK 677,000 ($61,470), SEK 707,000, and SEK 757,000, respectively. The Zeekr X is offered in two versions, with starting prices at SEK 550,000 and SEK 595,000.

Notably, Zeekr announced on August 25 that the first Zeekr 001 vehicles destined for European customers had set sail, aiming for local deliveries in the fourth quarter.

Zeekr’s global presence is set to expand further, with plans to operate in six countries by 2024 and eight by 2025, as per the company’s recent announcement. This expansion demonstrates Zeekr’s commitment to the international EV market and its ambition to establish a strong presence in key regions.
