Mansory Debuts the Ultra-Luxury Zeekr 9X at Auto China 2026

Mansory, a renowned German tuning company, made a splash at Auto China 2026 in Beijing by revealing its first project designed specifically for the Chinese market: a dramatically modified Zeekr 9X. This marks a significant change for Mansory, which traditionally focuses on European cars. They’ve taken Geely’s large hybrid SUV and given it a much more aggressive and imposing look. The Zeekr 9X was already known for its size and luxury, earning comparisons to the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, but Mansory’s changes have transformed it into something truly striking and attention-grabbing on the road.

Online Art Auctions Hit $423.9 Million USD as Prices Soar

The way auction houses attract buyers is changing, with online platforms becoming the primary way to reach a new audience. Christie’s found that 63% of its new customers first engaged with them through online sales, and Phillips has seen even greater success. In 2025, Phillips achieved $927 million in global sales – a 10% increase – with almost 70% of all items sold through digital channels. This demonstrates that embracing new technologies is proving profitable. Phillips also launched a unique Priority Bidding system in September, offering lower fees to those who bid early. This encouraged a 275% surge in initial bids, showing how technology can significantly change the traditional auction process.
