ZEEKR appoints Carro as latest authorised dealer in Malaysia, reflecting strong commitment to enhance customer accessibility in the premium EV sector
- Partnership plans include 4 new Zeekr showrooms and 3 Carro Care workshops to support retail and maintenance efforts
- Carro’s robust ecosystem to provide financing, insurance, body & paint, and maintenance services for new Zeekr car purchases
- Malaysia is the second market for Carro to expand to Brand New cars, with the 009 and X models available for bookings on carro.co/zeekr
Kuala Lumpur, 16 June 2024 – Zeekr, the world’s leading premium new energy vehicle group, has appointed Carro as its latest authorised dealer in Malaysia. Both companies signed a Memorandum of Understanding at Carro’s flagship store in Puchong, Malaysia on 16 June 2025.
Zeekr is committed to driving the future of transportation with cutting-edge technology, and this latest appointment reflects its strong commitment in ensuring customers are able to easily access and own an Electric Vehicle (EV).
“The positive response we have received from the Malaysian market over the past few months reflects the growing appreciation for Zeekr’s premium electric vehicles,” says Alex Bao, Managing Director of Zeekr Southeast Asia. “This momentum reinforces our commitment to expanding our presence in Malaysia, and our partnership with Carro represents a significant milestone in that direction – enhancing both our sales network and after-sales capabilities to better support our customers. This collaboration also aligns with our broader business strategy as we prepare for the introduction of our next important model, the Zeekr 7X.“
Carro is Asia Pacific’s largest online automotive marketplace and Malaysia’s most trusted used car platform. This collaboration marks yet another significant milestone for the automotive unicorn, as they expand to Brand New car sales in another market. Earlier in March 2025, Carro in Singapore started selling parallel-imported cars, which are supported by in-house warranties and aftersales services by Carro Care, as well as in-house financing by Genie Financial Services.
“This is a really exciting step for us, as we offer even more automotive options to our customers in Malaysia,” says Fong Hon Sum, CEO of International Marketplace at Carro. “We’re seeing a growing market in Malaysia for hybrid and electric vehicles, with developing infrastructure and tax exemptions in place, and we’re ready to provide these services to Malaysians who are keen to make the switch to EVs. Our expertise within the EV sector has us well-placed to handle inspections, repairs, and maintenance, and we’re so excited to have Zeekr as our partner.”
Zeekr car owners can look forward to greater accessibility and convenience within the EV sector in the long run, as they look forward to the standard dealer warranty, plus access to a full suite of end-to-end Carro services, including financing, aftersales and insurance services with Genie Financial Services, Carro Care and Coverro, respectively.
There are currently 3 showrooms, known as Zeekr Space, located in Petaling Jaya and IOI Mall Puchong. There are also plans to open up 4 new Zeekr Space showrooms (in Juru Autocity, Klang Valley and Seremban) and 3 new authorised Carro Care workshops, in partnership with Carro.
Zeekr set foot in Malaysia in December 2024, marking its debut with two models: the 009 MPV and the X model SUV. These two premium vehicles are celebrated for their EV technologies, spaciousness and exceptional user experience.
