Zeekr Malaysia and SkyPark FBO Malaysia to Elevate the Business Aviation and General Aviation Passenger Experience

Zeekr Intelligent Technology Malaysia (Zeekr Malaysia) and Skypark FBO Malaysia Sdn Bhd (SFBO) signed a Memorandum of Understanding on 9 September 2026 to enhance the passenger experience at SkyPark Business Aviation Centre (SBAC), with the Zeekr 009 providing airside transfers between the facility and aircraft.

The collaboration is aimed at improving the Business Aviation and General Aviation passenger experience, while extending Zeekr Malaysia’s presence across the lifestyle, hospitality and business sectors, the companies said. The Zeekr 009, described by the company as its flagship luxury multi-purpose vehicle, will be introduced into the business aviation environment at Subang SkyPark, which the company described as a notable step for the brand.

SFBO — Skypark FBO Malaysia, a fixed-base operator (FBO) — serves VIP travellers, private jet owners and charter flight passengers, and describes its facility as centred on privacy, efficiency and personalised service. Under the agreement, the Zeekr 009 will be used to transfer passengers between the facility and their aircraft, with the company describing the vehicle’s cabin as executive-focused.

“The Zeekr 009 was created for people who spend a significant amount of time travelling and expect comfort, connectivity, and convenience wherever they go. With its first-class comfort and executive-focused cabin, the Zeekr 009 is a natural fit for the discerning travellers and business leaders who pass through SBAC. We are proud to work with SFBO to bring together two premium environments and create a more seamless experience for passengers, while demonstrating how the Zeekr 009 represents the next generation of executive mobility.”

According to Zeekr, the 009 is designed around what the company calls its “First-Class Always” proposition, with features it says are focused on comfort, connectivity and refinement throughout the cabin. The company said these features are intended to position the Zeekr 009 for use by business and VIP travellers, beyond what it described as the conventional luxury vehicle format.

“At SkyPark, our focus has always been on providing Business Aviation & General Aviation passengers with a journey that is efficient, personalised, and comfortable from arrival through to boarding. This collaboration with Zeekr Malaysia allows us to extend that experience beyond the lounge, with the Zeekr 009 providing a refined airside transfer for our passengers as they make their way to their aircraft.”

Under the agreement, the Zeekr 009 will form part of the passenger journey for VIP travellers at SBAC, connecting the lounge at SBAC with the aircraft during airside transfers. Both companies described the partnership as extending the comfort and service level of SkyPark Business Aviation Centre from the lounge through to the aircraft.

The Zeekr 009 is available in Malaysia in three variants: Executive, Luxury and Ultra-Luxury. The Executive is a seven-seat, front-wheel-drive variant with a single electric motor producing 250kW (335hp) and 373Nm of torque, with a 0–100km/h time of 7.9 seconds and a WLTP-rated range of up to 604km. The Luxury (seven-seat) and Ultra-Luxury (six-seat) variants use a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup producing 450kW (603hp) and 693Nm of torque, with a 0–100km/h time of 4.5 seconds and a WLTP-rated range of up to 582km.

All three variants run on a 400-volt electrical architecture with a 116kWh NCM battery using Zeekr’s CTP 2.0 cell-to-pack technology, and support 150kW DC fast charging from 10 to 80 percent in around 30 minutes, or an 11kW AC charge from 0 to 100 percent in about 13.5 hours. Net selling prices range from RM304,800 for the Executive to RM359,800 for the Ultra-Luxury, with on-the-road prices without insurance ranging from RM305,995 to RM362,240 depending on variant and buyer type. The vehicle measures 5,209mm in length, 2,024mm in width and 1,812mm in height, with a 3,205mm wheelbase, and is offered in Phantom Black or Crystal White exterior colours, with Stone Grey & Polar White or Stone Black interior options.

Standard features across the range include the Sofaro First-Class Airline Seats in soft Nappa leather, with ventilation and massage functions for first- and second-row seats; a concealable 17-inch OLED roof screen with 3K resolution; a 30-speaker Yamaha surround sound system, including eight seat headrest speakers; an 8.6-litre temperature-controlled refrigerator; and Zeekr’s Magic Carpet dual-chamber air suspension system. The cabin also includes two Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295-powered processors for its intelligent cockpit system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and vehicle over-the-air software updates. Boot space ranges from 574 litres with all seats in use to a maximum of 2,979 litres with rear seats folded, while kerb weight ranges from 2,770kg for the Executive to 2,870kg for the Luxury and Ultra-Luxury variants.

Safety features include seven airbags, a 360-degree collision warning system, a reinforced battery structure, and a full suite of advanced driver-assistance systems, including automatic lane change, lane-keeping assist and adaptive cruise control. The vehicle is covered by a five-year, 150,000km vehicle warranty and an eight-year, 160,000km warranty on its high-voltage components, whichever comes first.

For business and VIP travellers passing through SkyPark Business Aviation Centre, this is a straightforward, practical upgrade: the short leg between the lounge and the aircraft is now handled by a dedicated, comfortable vehicle. For anyone flying in or out of Subang on a tight schedule, that’s one less friction point in the journey, and a more consistent, private experience from arrival at SBAC through to boarding.

It’s a modest addition rather than a transformative one, and it has no bearing on pricing or ownership terms for anyone considering a Zeekr 009 of their own — that’s a separate conversation with an authorised dealer. But for travellers who use SBAC regularly, a defined, comfortable airside transfer is a small, welcome piece of predictability in a part of business travel that doesn’t always get much attention.
