AutoExec Summary
The incoming Chinese manufacturer, Zeekr, is focusing on competing in the premium field rather than engaging in a price race to the bottom. They plan to launch their first product, the X, an electric SUV, in Australia later this year. Zeekr aims to offer high-quality cars and competitive pricing compared to existing luxury brands. The brand is positioning itself aggressively in terms of pricing to challenge other manufacturers in the market, including Volvo, Polestar, Lotus, and Smart. Zeekr’s success in the domestic market will be measured by adoption and getting their unique cars on the road for Australians to experience first-hand.

Brands mentioned: Volvo, Polestar, Lotus, Smart, Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai, Tesla
