When it arrives in Malaysia, the Zeekr 009 will not only cast its presence in the luxury MPV market, but it will also become the most powerful MPV available. That is thanks to its dual-motor set-up that produces a combined output of 603 PS and 693 Nm.
Sentinel Automotive Sdn Bhd is distributing Geelyโs luxury marque in Malaysia. Last week, it announced that bookings are open for the Zeekr 009, which has an indicative pricing of RM 370,000 and below. The booking fee is set at RM 4,000.
At Sunway Pinnacle, Zeekr Malaysia previewed the Zeekr 009 alongside the Zeekr X. Two variants, the 6-seater Ultra Luxury and the 7-seater Luxury variant, were announced for Malaysia.
Both are powered by the performance dual motors hooked to a 116-kWh battery with a maximum range of 582 km (WLTP).
Other than the number of seats, both variants of the Zeekr 009 are equipped with the same luxurious features. Measuring 5,209 mm in length, the 009 is longer than the Toyota Alphard (5,010 mm) but is still shorter than the Maxus Mifa 9 (5,270 mm), its closest battery electric vehicle (BEV) competitor.
Inside, the 009 comes with Sofaro First Class Aeronautic seats upholstered in soft Nappa leather. The front seats are equipped with 12-way power adjustable memory seats with massage function and ventilation.
The second-row seats come equipped with independent wide armrests with seat adjustment controls, seat ventilation, massage, and memory functions. Entering the third row is also easy thanks to the one-button electric entry and exit functions.
Other convenient features include an 8.6-litre fridge with cooling and warming functions, a 17-inch OLED roof-mounted monitor, a smart bar that provides easy climate control and seat adjustment as well as an impressive 30-speaker Yamaha sound system including in the headrests.
The Zeekr 009 also features a dual-chamber air suspension with adjustable height and damping rate which allows the MPV to automatically adapt to different road conditions for maximum comfort. Zeekr claims the cabin noise level at 120 km/h is rated at 64.5 dB.
Also for the driver, the 009 is available with a 15.05-inch OLED centre display screen, a 35.95-inch augmented reality head-up display (AR-HUD), as well as a second-row HD camera to monitor rear occupants.
Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) features built into the ZEEKR 009 incorporates:
Lane Centering Control (LCC)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Collision Mitigation Support Front (CMSF)
Collision Mitigation Support Rear (CMSR)
Lane Keeping System
Blind Spot Detection (BSD)
Three exterior colours are offered for the 009 โ Phantom Black, Electric Blue, and Crystal White. Three interior hues are available as well which are Black, Stone Grey and Polar White along with Midnight Blue and Polar White.
