Zeekr Malaysia is heading into the Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show (KLIMS) 2026 with its two most aspirational models – the Zeekr 009 Grand and the Zeekr 9X. The ultra luxe duo will make their Malaysian debut at the show, which runs from June 12 to 21 at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (MITEC).

It’s likely a showcase and not a sales launch as @zeekrmy’s Instagram caption says “both models offer a glimpse into the future direction of the Zeekr brand” – the keyword here is future, so we think a proper sales launch will come later, just not right now at KLIMS.

In any case, the pair headline a five-model Zeekr stand that also includes the existing 009 MPV, the 7X SUV and the 2026 Zeekr X, a trio which you can already buy now.

Zeekr 9X – the flagship PHEV SUV

The 9X is the bigger story of the two. It’s Zeekr’s new flagship – and the current standard-bearer for the wider Geely Group – but more significantly, it’s the first Zeekr to have an internal combustion engine. The full-size luxury SUV is a plug-in hybrid, marking the brand’s pivot from its EV-only origins.

The ICE in question is Geely’s 2.0 litre turbo-four making 279 PS, paired with a dual- or tri-motor electric setup depending on trim. In its most potent form, the 9X serves up a frankly absurd 1,400 PS (1,030 kW) and 1,410 Nm, good for a 0-100 km/h time of just 3.1 seconds in a car that weighs the wrong side of three tonnes.

Despite being a “PHEV” instead of a pure EV, it rides on a 900V platform with 6C ultra-fast charging, and battery options run to 55.1 kWh and 70 kWh (CATL), with a CLTC EV-only range of around 300-380 km and combined range north of 1,200 km.

At 5,239 mm long with a 3,169 mm wheelbase, the six-seat 9X is genuinely vast, and its imposing chrome-grilled, long-bonnet silhouette has earned it the “Hangzhou Bay Cullinan” nickname.
