Also unveiled at the show, the Lynk & Co 07GT is Geely's first plug-in hybrid sports wagon launched in the European market. The third model unveiled, Zeekr 9X, is Geely's flagship model for entering Europe's luxury SUV segment. It is now accepting orders, with deliveries scheduled to begin in January 2027.
According to data provided by Geely Auto, in September this year, the combined sales of the three brands of Geely, Lynk & Co and Zeekr in Europe exceeded 10,000 units, and their local retail, service and product development operations continued to expand. Worldwide, Geely Auto's sales from January to September this year exceeded 2.23 million units, with year-on-year and month-on-month growth for seven consecutive months.
In fact, Geely's determination to deepen its presence in the European market is not only reflected in its debut at the Paris Motor Show. According to a senior officer of the group, the Geely brand has now entered 27 European countries and has established five subsidiaries in the Netherlands, France, Germany, Hungary and Spain, continuously enhancing its local operating capabilities in key markets. At the same time, Geely is continuously improving its sales and service network. It has now established more than 450 stores in Europe, providing European consumers with more convenient and efficient vehicle purchase and after-sales services.
In an interview with the reporter, Nan Shengliang, vice president of Geely Auto Group and general manager of Geely Auto International Corporation, said that Geely attaches great importance to building long-term partnerships overseas, and that Geely's globalization process is in fact a process of building and expanding partnerships. In particular, in terms of localized manufacturing, Geely is also accelerating its production capacity layout in Europe. In July, Geely Auto Holdings and Ford Motor Company announced an agreement to produce new energy vehicles for the European market at Ford's manufacturing plant in Valencia, Spain. The arrangement is expected to help Geely accelerate its localization efforts while improving capacity utilization and supporting local employment. (Contributed by Li Wenxin)
