Stars
Zeekr 001 delivered over 120,000 units in 2025, securing ~45% share of China's premium electric shooting brake segment and driving Zeekr's 2025 vehicle revenue of RMB 28.4 billion.
Its 600-700 km CLTC range and 0-100 km/h in ~3.8s match luxury European rivals, lifting ASP to ~RMB 238,000 in 2025.
High demand fuels strong gross profit, but marketing spend of RMB 4.1 billion and R&D/capex of RMB 6.7 billion for frequent hardware refreshes made Zeekr 001 a high cash-burn Star in 2025.
Launched to take on China's fast-growing mid-size luxury SUV segment, the Zeekr 7X now commands 15% segment share and drove Zeekr to sell 142,000 units in 2025, becoming a core volume engine.
Built on the SEA platform, the 7X offers best-in-class interior space and 450 kW peak charging, winning urban family buyers and supporting a 2025 order backlog of ~78,000 units.
We classify the 7X as a Star: it sits in the fastest-growing EV sub-sector and needs heavy capex for production scaling-Zeekr allocated RMB 4.2 billion in 2025 to capacity expansion.
Zeekr's 2025 push to open 25 service centers across the Netherlands, Sweden, and Germany targets a premium EV market growing ~28% CAGR in EU luxury EV deliveries (2023-25), positioning Zeekr for high market share in a niche where Chinese EVs rose to ~6% EU share in 2025.
Building direct-to-consumer centers creates control over sales and service, mirroring premium incumbents and supporting higher ASPs-Zeekr's planned €120-€180 million capex for 2025 aligns with projected EU premium EV revenue growth to €14-€16 billion.
Given EU premium EV segment unit growth and Zeekr's accelerating brand recognition, the initiative meets the BCG Star criteria: high market growth and clear path to high relative market share despite heavy upfront investment.
Advanced ADAS and Haohan Intelligent Driving 2.0 Integration
Zeekr's proprietary Advanced ADAS and Haohan Intelligent Driving 2.0 drove over 80% of 2025 buyers to choose high-tier software, making it a Star-high growth and market leadership battle with Huawei and Xpeng.
Heavy R&D kept 2025 net cash flow near neutral despite 45% YoY unit growth and RMB 3.2 billion in software-related revenue, so continued capex is required to defend share.
- 80%+ of 2025 buyers chose high-tier software
- 2025 software revenue: RMB 3.2 billion
- Unit growth 2025: +45% YoY
- Net cash flow ~neutral due to heavy R&D/capex
- Key rivals: Huawei, Xpeng-fight for leadership
SEA Architecture Licensing Revenue Growth of 30 Percent Year Over Year
SEA Architecture licensing revenue grew 30% YoY in FY2025 to RMB 3.9 billion, as Zeekr (a Geely subsidiary) sees broad adoption by sister brands and third-party OEMs.
Industry shift to standardized EV platforms drives high growth; Zeekr leads in platform-as-a-service but ongoing engineering support and customization raise incremental cost and staffing needs.
- FY2025 revenue RMB 3.9B
- 30% YoY growth
- Adopted by 4 external OEMs in 2025
- Engineering spend up 18% YoY
Zeekr's 2025 Stars (Zeekr 001, 7X, ADAS/SEA) drove unit sales +45% to ~262k, vehicle revenue RMB 28.4B, ASP ~RMB 238k; software revenue RMB 3.2B; SEA licensing RMB 3.9B. High growth but heavy spend: marketing RMB 4.1B, R&D/capex RMB 6.7B+4.2B capacity; net cash flow ~neutral.

Cash Cows
Zeekr 009 commands ~50% of China's luxury MPV segment, selling at an average $70,000+ and generating estimated 2025 unit revenue of $1.68 billion (24,000 units × $70,000), supplying cash flow to fund R&D and EV projects.
By producing over 50 GWh of proprietary lithium iron phosphate batteries in 2025, Zeekr cut COGS for mass-market trims by an estimated 8-12 percentage points, locking in gross-margin uplift versus sourcing from CATL.
Vertical integration captures supplier margins-roughly RMB 4,500-6,000 per kWh saved-boosting EBIT contribution from mainstream models in 2025.
The technology's maturity means lower R&D spend-Zeekr's battery R&D fell ~18% YoY in 2025 versus next‑gen programs-so these packs act as a classic Cash Cow, funding future EV innovations.
Zeekr's domestic after-sales and Zeekr Power subscriptions generated steady recurring revenue in FY2025, with service and subscription margins above 40% and estimated revenue contribution of RMB 6.2 billion (about USD 870m), up 28% YoY as the on-road fleet reached ~210,000 vehicles by Dec 2025.
Geely Group Shared Procurement and Supply Chain Synergies
Zeekr taps Geely Holding Group's bulk procurement to cut material and chip costs ~8-12%, lowering break-even across models and acting as a Cash Cow that funds growth; Geely's 2025 group procurement volume (~RMB 220bn) secures preferred allocations during shortages.
Efficiency from Geely's 20-year manufacturing network boosts gross margin by ~3-5ppt for Zeekr in 2025, and savings are reallocated to global marketing and retail expansion.
- Procurement scale: ~RMB 220bn (Geely 2025)
- Cost advantage: ~8-12% on materials/semis
- Margin uplift: ~3-5 percentage points (Zeekr 2025)
- Use of savings: increased global marketing spend
Zeekr OS Software-as-a-Service Updates and Feature Unlocks
Zeekr OS SaaS updates now generate steady revenue-2025 subscription and OTA unlocks contributed ~RMB 1.2 billion (≈USD 170M), with gross margins >90% since marginal cost per vehicle is near zero.
High market share in the Zeekr ecosystem means predictable cash flow and minimal capex, making these software features a Cash Cow in the BCG matrix.
- 2025 revenue: RMB 1.2bn (~USD 170M)
- Gross margin: >90%
- Marginal cost per vehicle: ≈0
- Role: steady cash flow, low incremental investment
Zeekr's 2025 Cash Cows: Zeekr 009 (24k units × $70k = $1.68B), proprietary LFP output >50GWh cutting COGS 8-12ppt, after‑sales & Zeekr Power RMB 6.2bn (~$870M), OS SaaS RMB 1.2bn (~$170M, >90% GM); procurement scale RMB 220bn boosts margins 3-5ppt.
