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.”

The Zeekr 009 was launched in Malaysia in December 2024 as part of Zeekr’s entry into the local market, and is sold in three variants: Executive, Luxury and Ultra Luxury, currently priced from roughly RM304,800 to RM359,800. The Executive is a single-motor, front-wheel-drive variant producing 335hp, with a 0–100km/h time of 7.9 seconds, while the Luxury and Ultra Luxury use a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup producing more than 600hp, with a 0–100km/h time of 4.5 seconds.

All three share a 116kWh battery, with a WLTP-rated range of up to 604km on the Executive and 582km on the higher variants. The vehicle supports DC fast charging of up to 150kW, with a 10-to-80-percent charge taking around 30 minutes, and is offered in six- or seven-seat configurations depending on variant. The Executive variant is covered by a five-year, 150,000km vehicle warranty and an eight-year, 160,000km battery warranty. Zeekr’s line-up also includes the Zeekr 009 Grand, a higher-specification four-seat variant that opened for booking in Malaysia in June 2026, priced from around RM600,000.

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. The vehicle is fitted with what Zeekr calls Sofaro First-Class Airline Seats, upholstered in soft Nappa leather with ventilation and massage functions. The cabin also includes a 17-inch 3K OLED roof screen. Zeekr said the vehicle’s Intelligent Magic Carpet system and dual-chamber air suspension are intended to improve ride comfort.

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.

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.
