China’s Geely Holding Group announced last week its Zeekr electric vehicle brand has agreed to develop and produce a new model for US autonomous driving company Waymo LLC (owned by Google), according to reports in China. The model will be designed and developed at Zeekr’s research and development (R&D) facility in Gothenburg, Sweden, where Geely’s Volvo Cars subsidiary is based. Waymo will add its autonomous driving technology after its takes delivery of the vehicles, ahead of their deployment in the USA.


The Chinese automaker said the new model aims to set a new benchmark for autonomous ride-hailing vehicles, with its design and layout to be very “rider-centric”. It will be based on open-source architecture and will be available with a fully configurable cabin with and without driver controls.


Waymo said in a statement these new vehicles will be a big part of its commitment to “expanding access to sustainable transportation”.

    Geely ranks second-level in China's electric vehicle market. Its market position is far less than that of Xpeng, NIO, and Li Auto listed in the US, and BYD listed in Shenzhen. The cooperation with Waymo will make Geely's technology a qualitative leap. This is very good news for this company
