The Zeekr 9X has recently hit another major milestone.
As the technical partner for the Zeekr 9X’s Naim Hall of Fame audio system, AAC Technologies is honored to witness this flagship model consistently setting new benchmarks in market performance and brand reputation. Public data reveals that in March 2026, monthly sales of the Zeekr 9X surpassed 10,000 units. It has led the sales and reputation rankings for large SUVs priced above RMB 500,000 for five consecutive months, and ranked first in cumulative sales across all vehicle categories priced above RMB 500,000 during the same period. In other word, one in every three vehicles priced above RMB 500,000 in the Chinese market is a Zeekr 9X. For a Chinese SUV brand targeting the high-end luxury segment, this achievement demonstrates Zeekr’s formidable product competitiveness and a growing appreciation of the brand among premium consumers.
Meanwhile, in the “10-CAR AUDIO SYSTEM SHOOTOUT” hosted by the professional media outlet AutoLab, the Zeekr 9X secured the top overall score and ranked first in the professional blind listening test. The Zeekr 9X not only enjoys market popularity but also excels in acoustic performance, further underscoring its strength in delivering premium cabin experience.

In the Zeekr 9X project, the Naim team participated in the entire development process from system architecture to final sound tuning, dedicating over 2,000 hours to in-car acoustic refinement across 18 months. AAC Technologies, sharing Naim’s audio philosophy, developed tailored core solutions, including “M-type” titanium dome tweeters, 40-channel amplifiers, and front-cabin subwoofers with CDD technology, and collaborated with partners to complete the full audio system.
The Zeekr 9X’s Naim Hall of Fame audio system employs a 9.2.4.8 immersive architecture. With 40 independent channels, it powers 32 speakers and 8 seat exciters. The deep synergy between hardware, algorithms, tuning, and cabin layout collectively defines the system’s exceptional acoustic performance. The success of the Zeekr 9X illustrates that competition in the premium new energy vehicle segment is evolving beyond specifications and features toward a battle for superior holistic experience. Audio is becoming an increasingly pivotal element of the premium cabin experience.
Going ahead, AAC Technologies looks forward to continuing its partnership with Zeekr and Naim. On future projects such as the Zeekr 8X, it will leverage advanced acoustic technologies and system synergy to jointly create even more immersive and high-quality listening experience for users.
