The Chinese carmaker also aims to expand its position as a market share leader among Chinese automakers. Among Geely’s 2025 target, electrified vehicles (including hybrids) will account for 30% or around 1 million vehicles per year.

Meanwhile, Zeekr, which was launched this year, will aim to achieve 650,000 units in annual sales by 2025. Pretty ambitious figures but with the first batch of Zeekr’s debut model, the Zeekr 001 sold out within 2 months, that target might be achievable.
