Zeekr has given a glimpse inside one of the most anticipated new SUVs coming to Australia.
Zeekr will introduce its flagship 9X large SUV to the Australian market this year, and will offer a seriously high-end experience for rear-seat passengers.
The 9X is expected to carry a $100,000-plus price tag when it lands in Australia, giving the BMW X7 and top-spec Range Rover models a run for their money.

It has been shown off in a plush five-seater configuration, with the seats covered in a supple maroon leather.
It boasts up to 1.4m of legroom for rear-seat passengers, with seats also featuring reclining and zero-gravity.
Physical control panels in the rear doors control functionality.
The middle seat back folds down to provide a comfy armrest and reveal more rear cabin controls.
There is a central tablet control panel to set the temperature and monitor other car features from the back.
The car has already launched in China, where it is also offered in a six-seater configuration.
It is available with two powerful plug-in hybrid set-up choices.
Both have a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, paired with either two or three electric motors, offering 660kW/935Nm or 1030kW/1410Nm.
It can shift from 0-100km/h in roughly three seconds.
The car has a fittingly huge battery of up to 70kWh, expected to offer an all-electric driving range of more than 300km.
Zeekr will hope the 9X can build on the momentum of its cars already making waves in Australia.
The 7X mid-size electric SUV has been a revelation for the brand.
It has quickly garnered significant attention from buyers as it looks to hunt down the record-breaking Tesla Model Y.
Its smaller X sibling has also started to gain some traction Down Under, with a mass of new orders for its recently-updated model.
