Zeekr, the premium brand under Geely Auto, has reported another record month for vehicle deliveries. The company achieved its fifth straight monthly delivery record in August, reflecting rapid growth in 2026.
August Delivery Performance
According to data released on Tuesday, Zeekr delivered 36,981 vehicles in August. This marks a 109.8% increase compared to the same month last year and a 3.19% rise from July, when the company delivered 35,837 vehicles.
This performance extends Zeekr’s streak of monthly delivery records to five consecutive months.
Year-to-Date and Cumulative Growth
In the first eight months of 2026, Zeekr delivered a total of 251,188 vehicles, representing a 100.4% increase year-on-year.
Since Zeekr began delivering vehicles in 2021, cumulative deliveries have reached 894,077 units, according to data compiled by CnEVPost. The brand also stated on Weibo that its global user base is approaching 900,000.
Product Launches and Overseas Expansion

Why this matters
Zeekr’s continued delivery growth highlights its expanding presence in the global EV market. The company’s ability to set new records for five consecutive months demonstrates strong demand for its vehicles and effective rollout of new models.
The launch of new products and the start of exports for key models like the Zeekr 9X indicate Zeekr’s commitment to international expansion and its growing influence beyond China.
What this means for buyers
Buyers can expect Zeekr to maintain a strong focus on expanding its product lineup and availability in more regions. The brand’s rapid growth and increasing global footprint may lead to improved support and more choices for consumers considering an electric vehicle.
