Chinese electric vehicle maker Zeekr began selling a redesigned version of its best-selling 001 on Tuesday with a slew of performance features including an extended driving range and faster charging speed at a cost of RMB 269,000 ($37,364). The Zeekr 001 accounted for 60% of the brand’s sales last year. Market outlook: Management expects the all-new Zeekr 001 to contribute at least half of its sales in 2024, with monthly deliveries reaching 10,000 units per month, Jason Lin, a vice president, told reporters on Tuesday. The battery EV competes with crossovers and sports sedans such as BYD’s Denza N7, as well as the upcoming Xiaomi SU7. Zeekr currently has four models on sale, including the cheaper sedan 007, the multi-purpose van 009, and a compact crossover.
