Chinese automakers unveil high‑performance luxury SUVs Stelato G9 and Zeekr 9X

Huawei and BAIC's premium brand Stelato has opened pre‑sales for the G9 full‑size SUV in China at 439,800 yuan (about 65,120 USD). The 5.2‑metre vehicle is offered in EREV and BEV versions with a maximum output of 437 kW (586 hp) and incorporates Huawei’s Xpixel lighting and LiDAR‑assisted driver‑assist system. It can tow up to 2,000 kg but is not designed for extreme off‑road use.

Geely’s luxury sub‑brand Zeekr introduced the 9X Super Hybrid, a six‑seat SUV built on a 900‑V electric architecture and delivering up to 897 hp. The model, designed in Gothenburg, Sweden, accelerates from 0‑100 km/h in 4.1 seconds, reaches a top speed of 240 km/h and offers a range of over 730 km. It supports rapid DC charging (10 % to 80 % in under ten minutes) and also has a 2,000 kg towing capacity. The 9X will debut in the European market with premium interior features such as a 17‑inch OLED screen and a smart refrigerator for rear‑seat passengers.
