China's Geely Holding Group posted its highest-ever results after cumulative sales in the first three quarters of this year surpassed 3 million units. Growth in sales of new energy vehicles, including electric and hybrid models, and the expansion of major brands such as Zeekr and Geely Auto in overseas markets supported the group's growth.

Geely Holding Group said on the 21st that total group sales from January to September this year reached 3,002,640 units. Sales of new energy vehicles rose 12.6% year over year to 1,792,617 units, accounting for 59.7% of total sales.

After delivering 178,370 units in the first half, it delivered an additional 110,034 units in the third quarter alone, bringing its cumulative deliveries this year to more than 900,000 units.

The 7X, a midsize electric sport utility vehicle (SUV) set to launch in South Korea, is also continuing to grow. Zeekr said cumulative production of the 7X surpassed 200,000 units since its launch last September.

Geely Auto achieved its highest-ever sales, selling 2,235,481 units from January to September, up 3% year over year. Sales of new energy vehicles rose 14% to 1,326,364 units, accounting for 59.3% of total sales.

Growth in overseas markets was also notable. Geely Auto's overseas sales from January to September surged 169% year over year to 797,670 units. Overseas sales in September totaled 106,685 units, exceeding 100,000 units a month for the fourth consecutive month.

Premium brand Lynk & Co sold 196,117 units through the third quarter. New energy vehicles accounted for 71.5% of that total. Lynk & Co expanded sales of its flagship model, the Lynk & Co 900, to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Egypt, Qatar, and Vietnam, among other markets. It also began selling the Lynk & Co 08 in Kazakhstan. Since its launch in September 2023, global deliveries of the model have surpassed 200,000 units. More recently, the brand unveiled the Lynk & Co 07 GT at the 2026 Paris Motor Show, stepping up its push into the European market.

Geely Holding Group plans to continue its growth strategy, focusing on electrification and expanding its global business. "Achieving sales of more than 3 million units in the first nine months of this year is an important milestone, but scaling up is not an end in itself," said Andy An, CEO of Geely Holding Group. "We will draw on advanced technology and localized operational capabilities to help each brand meet the needs of customers around the world and achieve sustained growth."

As it marks its 40th anniversary this year, Geely Holding Group is strengthening its research and development, technology, and engineering capabilities to enhance the independent competitiveness of its brands and advance the development of an eco-friendly, intelligent mobility ecosystem.
