CTOnews.com, January 30 (Xinhua)-- Geely's high-end electric brand Zeekr has unveiled its third model, a compact SUV that will be named Polar Krypton 003, according to polar krypton insiders. The new car is scheduled to make its debut at the Shanghai auto show in April and will then be introduced to parts of the European market.

The Zeekr 003, internally codenamed BX1E, is based on the parent company Geely's "vast architecture", which is also used in Zeekr's first two models, the Zeekr 001and the Zeekr 009MPV.

There is little information about the power of the Zeekr 003, but according to Autocar, the car will be sold in the form of a single-motor rear-wheel drive and a dual-motor four-wheel drive system, with outputs ranging from 268bhp to 422bhp.

The compact SUV was designed by an internal team led by Geely Design Director Stefan Sielaff at Geely Design Center in Gothenburg, Sweden. The front face of the machine adopts polar krypton family design, which includes LED daytime driving lights integrated in the closed lines of the bonnet and double vertical horizontal headlights on the front. The taillights are not in a penetrating shape and the middle ZEEKR logo is embedded in the center of the breakpoint.

The new Zeekr has deep creases on the side, a traditional rearview mirror, a hidden door handle, and a raised waistline, with a wide C-pillar and a sloping roof line.

As a sister model of the Smart # 1, it is said to be about 4300 mm in length, 1830 mm in width and 1640 mm in height.

CTOnews.com learned that ZEEKR Polar Krypton sold 72000 cars worldwide in 2022, most of them in China. This year, ZEEKR Polar Krypton plans to double its annual sales to 140000 vehicles; to achieve this goal, ZEEKR Polar Krypton is conducting final training for global sales. In addition, ZEEKR filed for an initial public offering (IPO) in the United States in December last year as part of its globalization plan.
