Zeekr 001
The Zeekr 001 is a premium battery electric shooting brake made by Zeekr, a Geely Holding Group sub-brand. Launched in 2021, it is widely described as the world's first mass-produced EV shooting brake - a swooping 5-door fastback combining Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo aesthetics with aggressive EV performance and tech at a fraction of the price. With triple five-star safety ratings, up to 1,265 hp in its FR quad-motor variant, and charging speeds that hit 546 kW peak on its 2026 900V platform, the 001 has become the benchmark for Chinese premium EVs seeking global legitimacy.
