Zeekr X Incredible Performance and Range

All Zeekr X models are powered by a 66-kilowatt-hour pack with NMC chemistry. According to Zeekr, the RWD model can cover up to 348 miles (560 kilometers) between charges, while the AWD model can run up to 318 miles (512 km) on a single charge – both values calculated on China’s CLTC test cycle.

The Zeekr X comes with a dual-motor model rated at 315 kilowatts (422 horsepower) and 400 pound-feet (543 Newton-meters) of torque, allowing it to accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in just 3.7 seconds. The single-motor version is also no slouch, covering the same sprint in 5.8 seconds. The entry-level variant has a rear-mounted motor making 200 kW (268 hp).

Zeekr X Features

Not only does the Zeekr X offer impressive range and performance, but it also provides a comfortable and convenient driving experience. The car features an Integrated Power Brake (IPB) system and four-wheel independent suspension, which helps to balance comfort and performance while ensuring excellent drivability. The AWD system allows seamless automated transitions between two- and four-wheel drive depending on driving conditions.

The Zeekr X’s AWD system is also worth mentioning, as it allows for seamless automated transitions between two- and four-wheel drive depending on driving conditions. This advanced feature adds an extra layer of convenience and safety, making the Zeekr X a versatile and reliable vehicle in various weather and road conditions.

Affordable, High-Performance EV

Furthermore, the affordable price point of the Zeekr X makes it an attractive option for buyers who want to enjoy the benefits of an electric vehicle without breaking the bank. By offering an impressive range and performance at a relatively low price, Zeekr is providing an accessible entry point to the world of electric vehicles.

Not only does this help to make electric vehicles more accessible to a wider range of consumers, but it also benefits the company. By offering an affordable yet high-performing electric SUV, Zeekr is positioning itself as a strong competitor in the global electric vehicle market. With its ambitious goal of selling 2 million electric vehicles by 2025, the launch of the Zeekr X marks a significant step towards achieving this target.

Inside, the Zeekr X features a 12.9 square-foot (1.2-square-meter) panoramic double-pane glass canopy, a massive 14.6-inch floating main screen, a wireless phone charging pad, ambient lighting, and much more. These interior features add to the comfort and convenience of driving the Zeekr X.

The most notable feature of the Zeekr X, however, is its price point. The base RWD trim starts at just $27,600 (189,800 yuan), while the AWD model starts at $30,500 (209,800 yuan). This affordable price point makes the Zeekr X an attractive option for buyers who want to enjoy the benefits of an electric vehicle without breaking the bank.

The Zeekr X is part of Geely’s broader plan to become a major player in the global electric vehicle market. The company is investing heavily in research and development and has set a goal of selling 2 million electric vehicles by 2025. The launch of the Zeekr X is a significant milestone in this plan, as it marks the company’s entry into the competitive electric SUV market.

The Zeekr X is available for purchase now in China, and the company plans to expand its availability to other markets in the future. The car is being offered at a very competitive price, which is sure to make it an attractive option for many buyers.

A Game-Changing Competitor to Tesla’s Model 3?

Zeekr X seems to be a strong competitor in the electric vehicle market, particularly in terms of its affordability and impressive range and performance. The starting price of $27,600 for the base RWD model is significantly less than the starting price of the Tesla Model 3, which is around $40,000.

However, it’s worth noting that the Tesla Model 3 has a well-established reputation for quality, performance, and features, which has helped it become one of the best-selling electric vehicles globally. Tesla also has a strong network of charging stations and a loyal customer base, which could make it challenging for new entrants to compete directly.

That being said, the electric vehicle market is growing rapidly, and there is plenty of room for new players like Zeekr to establish themselves and capture a share of the market. Ultimately, only time will tell how the Zeekr X stacks up against the competition, including the Tesla Model 3.

Overall, the Zeekr X is an impressive electric SUV that offers excellent range, performance, and comfort at an affordable price. As the demand for electric vehicles continues to grow, Zeekr’s entry into the market is likely to shake up the competition and provide more accessible options for consumers looking to make the switch to electric.

  1. Anyone who is willingly buying anything from a genocidal and repressive communist country must also be a communist.

    • I don’t know where you live Mr. Smith, but where I am in North America almost everything I can buy is manufactured in that communist country. TVs, appliances, furniture, toys, auto parts – almost all consumer goods. I will your house is full of items that you have purchased from there too.
      So check your hypocritical sanctimonious attitude.

    • What is wrong with you so what if someone buys what ever from China or why communist country, you need to get off this us vs them attitude, what makes this country all that much better, or it’s capitalist Ways right its more poverty here than most countries, and it’s due to greed that is all this country is based on greed and corruption, racism and the list goes on, so drop the flag waving crap and understand this is only place we got to exist on and so this division is ignorant no one here in this world is better than the next, and to prove it you along with test of us will die off one day too, so cut all that crap why the world is so screwed up today because of narrow minded thinking like yours, so following the crowd of ignorance and think for yourself for once,

    • Right on. All American companies should pull out of China. We all should be completely against china and Russia in every way possible. F those d*cks! I am a registered democrat but not incompetent like most democrats. Just can’t support the republicans because maga is even worse.

    • Says an oblivious iphone holder.
      Every car on the road is made is primarily chinese electronics, batteries, sensors, etc. Just because it is a brand by a specific company does not mean anything. If you think your “American” car is actually American you sadly mistaking.

    • If buying from China makes you a communist, then anyone buying from Walmart, Dollar Tree, and many other stores are communist. Elon Musk has Tesla and battery companies there. I guess he is a communist too by your definition.

  2. TESLA IS A GOOD Electric brand. It will face intense computation from VW and Chinese Like Geeley. And of course Korean and Japanese manufacturers too.

  3. it’s so funny to watch how once, the most automobile country in the world, and one of the most powerful countries in the world, does not have its own car industry, does not have a SINGLE car that would be better than Japanese, German, Italian and even Chinese. If America were not so afraid of the Chinese market and would not fence off with an iron curtain from private imports, then in this country the entire General Motors would have long been lying in a coffin. Personally, I, uh, would be among the first to throw the Tesla in the trash (neither reliability nor comfort, every year in last place in the reliability ratings) and instead of it, I would buy a Chinese electric car. But the US authorities are more interested in the rights of gays and the rights of blacks instead of doing this country better. US stucked in 90th…

      • Would personally qlove to see more competition from the likes of Geeley and BYD stateside. But unless they would assemble here the tariffs would likely price the vehicles 2-3X MSRP.

  4. This article is the same as all the other garbage clickbait articles. Trash Tesla name and promote new electric vehicle, which in this case currently has no interest in entering US markets. Look up this Zeekr car and you’ll see some actual information on it.

  5. 4200 lbs and 422 hp with 400 lbs tw cannot do 0-62 in 3.7 secs , 4.2+ secs is more realistic. Also EPA range is barely 200 miles (206) but it looks nice and for that price it’s competitive.
