Geely's premium brand will detail sleek, five-seat MPV next month, with UK sales possible in two years
Chinese EV brand Zeekr is poised to launch a sleek electric MPV to rival the Volkswagen ID Buzz, and a UK launch is on the cards in the next two years. The Geely-owned brand’s fifth production car, called the Mix, has been revealed in the latest batch of Chinese Ministry for Industry and Information Technology regulatory filings ahead of an official reveal at next month’s Beijing motor show.
The six-seat 009 MPV is not anticipated to be exported from China initially. The Mix has been conceived to rival the Volkswagen ID Buzz, and is set to follow that MPV in offering rear-wheel drive initially but adding four-wheel drive capability during its life cycle. The basis for the new model is Geely’s Sustainable Experience Architecture platform. It underpins a wide range of models from different Geely-owned brands, including the Smart #1, Volvo EX30 and all of Zeekr’s existing models.
