Zeekr car brand coming to the UK next year with high-tech luxury

The new Zeekr 7GT is likely to be one of the first Zeekr models to come to the UK - (Steve Fowler)

New luxury brand Zeekr has confirmed that it will be selling its first cars in the UK from next year. The brand is expected to start with electric models but plug-in hybrids are likely to come to the UK, too.

Zeekr is part of the giant Chinese Geely Group, which also owns Volvo, Lotus, Polestar and LEVC, and makes London’s black taxis.
