Geely Holding Group has unveiled an ambitious blueprint to become one of the top five global automakers by 2030.

Yang Xueliang, senior vice president of Geely Automotive Group, announced the 2030 strategy named "One Gely, Full Leading" in the keynote speech at the "2026 Intelligent Electric Vehicle Development Forum" held on the 11th, declaring that it will accelerate its entry into the global market centered on its own technology ecosystem and premium brand "Zeekr."

Zeekr To Become 'Gamechanger' In Global Luxury Market

Vice President Yang pointed to "Zicker" as the vanguard of Geely Group's brand luxury strategy. Zicker is considered to have successfully settled in the premium market, with cumulative deliveries exceeding 720,000 units and average sales price exceeding 300,000 yuan (about 57 million won).

In particular, Vice President Yang said, "More than 80% of Zicker 9X buyers are customers who previously owned Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Porsche," adding, "This proves that Chinese brands are actually penetrating the core market of traditional European luxury brands."

Building an integrated technology ecosystem that encompasses 'space-to-ground'

Geely Motors has invested more than 250 billion yuan (about 47 trillion won) in R&D over the past decade to secure leadership in the future mobility market. Through this, we have established a 'space-to-ground integration' intelligent technology ecosystem that encompasses batteries, autonomous driving, vehicle semiconductors, and low-orbit satellites.

These technologies are paying off in the field of autonomous driving. Geely's advanced intelligent driving system (G-ASD) recently became the first Chinese brand to achieve UNR171 international certification, laying the groundwork for its entry into the global market. In addition, it was suggested that it is evolving from a software-oriented to an AI-oriented vehicle through the artificial intelligence-based 'World Action Model (WAM).

Reach KRW 190 trillion in Sales in 2030

Geely Automobile's 2030 strategy presents specific figures. The key is to surpass 6.5 million global sales per year, achieve 1 trillion yuan in sales (about 190 trillion won), and increase the sales ratio of new energy vehicles (green vehicles) by 75%. The figure exceeds Hyundai Motor Group's 186 trillion in sales last year.

To this end, Geely Motors is promoting a 'Full Value Chain' export strategy that transplants the entire product, service, and ecosystem abroad beyond simple vehicle exports. It plans to maximize synergy between its brands such as Volvo, Polestar, and Lotus, and further expand its influence in the European and Southeast Asian markets through cooperation with global partners such as Renault.

Vice President Yang said, "There is no shortcut to the luxury and global expansion of Chinese brands," and added, "Geographic Motors will provide high-quality, eco-friendly smart mobility experiences to users around the world through key drivers of technological innovation and quality."
