China's answer to the Range Rover Electric is here. It's very posh, very fast, and very expensive.

Zeekr has taken the wraps off its range-topping, six-seater 9X SUV at the 2026 Paris Motor Show, where it was confirmed to have almost 910bhp and a 111-mile electric-only range.

Priced from €119,500 (around £100,900) and a direct competitor to the upcoming Range Rover Electric, the 2.9-tonne Zeekr 9X is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine mated to a 55.1kWh battery and a 900V electrical system. The latter translates into a 10-80% charge time of 9.5 minutes.

With all of that power, the dual-motor 9X has a top speed of 4.1 seconds and tops out at 149mph. Inside, Zeekr has eschewed any notion of vegan wood or leather, and the 9X’s cabin is clad in real Scandinavian wood, Nappa leather, and a Volvo-style crystal infotainment controller the Geely-owned Chinese manufacturer says is cut with “jewellery-grade precision”.

The 32-speaker sound system sourced from British firm Naim, which also supplies a similar setup for Bentley, promises an “immersive” audio experience. The 9X’s second and third rows can be transformed into a “private entertainment space”.

Middle-row seats are heated and cooled with electrically powered leg rests, while all rear passengers can access the car’s smart fridge. The Zeekr 9X also comes with a BMW i7-style 17-inch OLED cinema screen that drops down from the ceiling, plus a removable rear screen.

Zeekr seeks to combine Chinese EV tech with European design, and the driver gets an AI-driven, 47-inch head-up display showing navigation, speed, blind spot areas, and other information. Additional equipment up front includes a 13-inch instrument cluster, a 16-inch central touchscreen, and a 16-inch passenger screen. In total, the 9X’s cabin comes with six high-resolution screens.

Throughout, the Zeekr 9X’s cabin is soundproofed, and the car rides on an air suspension to smooth out any uneven road surfaces.

Now available to buy in Europe, the Zeekr 9X costs almost twice as much as it does at home in China. While sold in 22 European countries, Zeekr has yet to officially arrive as a brand in the UK. However, a launch is said to be imminent, and the 7GT is expected to be the first model to go on sale here.
