Singapore, 16 October 2024 – Following the successful launch of the Zeekr X, a premium compact SUV, global electric mobility technology brand Zeekr (NYSE: ZK) introduces the Zeekr 009, a pure electric luxury MPV, to Singapore. The premium vehicle will make its debut at the Singapore International Energy Week 2024, Asia’s premier energy event organized by the Singapore Energy Market Authority (EMA).
As the official car sponsor of SIEW 2024, Zeekr will provide a fleet of 10 Zeekr 009 MPVs to transport distinguished guests between venues from October 21 to 25 at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre. Event attendees will also have the opportunity to see the Zeekr 009 on display, offering them a first-hand experience and look at the luxurious electric vehicle.
Puah Kok Keong, Chief Executive, EMA said: “We are happy to welcome Zeekr as an official partner of SIEW 2024. Their innovative approach to electric mobility is aligned with EMA’s mission to drive conversations on sustainable energy solutions as part of efforts to decarbonise Singapore’s power sector, and share insights into shaping the future of global energy. We look forward to working with them to make SIEW 2024 a success.”
The transportation sector is at a critical juncture, as the world seeks solutions to reduce its contribution to greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. Zeekr’s participation in SIEW 2024, a forum dedicated to advancing sustainable energy, aligns perfectly with the brand’s mission to champion sustainable transportation.
Mr Alex Bao Zhuangfei, Head of Southeast Asia, Zeekr, said "As we continue to make strides in the Singapore market, we are proud to kick off the Zeekr 009’s chapter at Asia’s premier energy event. The event is aligned with our goals of laying a path towards a more sustainable future and reinforces our commitment to promoting sustainable transportation and environmental responsibility in Singapore.”
Zeekr 009: A new expression of luxury
The all-new Zeekr 009 lineup is designed to meet a diverse range of customer needs, offering six- and seven-seater models. Both models are equipped with a 116kWh battery, delivering up to 582km (WLTP) of range on a full charge. The battery can recharge from 10-80 percent (150kW DC) in merely 30 minutes. The dual-motor all-wheel drive system offers a peak power of 450kW, allowing the Zeekr 009 to accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometres per hour in just 4.5 seconds – bringing about an unparalleled, comfortable, and powerful experience for users.
With a sensor suite comprising high-definition cameras and millimetre-wave radars, the Zeekr 009 possesses intelligent advanced driver assistance functions that provide a comprehensive multi-faceted protection for all occupants. The Zeekr AI Mate Intelligent Assistant enables effortless control of numerous vehicle features, from navigation to vehicular interaction and climate control – ensuring drivers keep their eyes on the road and hands on the wheel.
The infotainment system on the Zeekr 009 is also enhanced by two Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chips, powering both the front and rear cabins. This one-of-a-kind configuration, backed with a 15.05-inch OLED screen with 2.5k resolution in the front, a 17-inch OLED screen with 3k resolution in the back, and a 30-speaker Yamaha surround sound system (including 8 headrest speakers), creates a truly unique and luxurious in-car interactive experience for all in this fully electric luxury MPV.
Keeping to the tradition of spacious and luxurious interiors, the seats in the Zeekr 009 are upholstered in the finest Nappa leather. Beyond their exquisite feel, the seats at the first and second rows are also equipped with headrest speakers, ventilation and massage functions. The Lounge Chair Mode is a standout feature of the Zeekr 009. Inspired by the iconic Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman, this mode allows passengers to fully stretch out their legs with a leg bolster that elevates to a horizontal position – providing the perfect remedy for travel fatigue.
The Zeekr 009 also features a versatile 8.6-litre refrigerator with both cooling and heating functions. Equipped with ultraviolet sterilisation, this innovative in-car appliance ensures optimal freshness of everything from baby food to champagne, making it ideal for long drives or cross-border travel.
Mr Lee Hoe Lone, Managing Director of Premium Automobiles, said: “The Zeekr 009 is a high-performance, pure electric MPV that offers maximum comfort and safety. With intelligent features and luxurious details, it is perfect for drivers who want a premium experience that is also environmentally friendly.”
