Zeekr has just unveiled its first family SUV, the 7X.
Details are limited at the time of this article, but what we do know is that you’ve got two options for batteries: a 75kWh lithium-iron phosphate battery that delivers 605km of range on the CLTC cycle, or, if you’re looking for a little more juice, the 100kWh nickel manganese cobalt battery, which stretches that range to 780km.
Zeekr claims the lithium-iron phosphate version has the world’s fastest charging capability, with a 10% to 80% charge in just 10.5 minutes. Interestingly, they did not quote how fast the car at actually charge.
But don’t think all that performance is crammed into a compact body. The 7X stands at a considerable 4,825mm in length, 1,930mm in width, and 1,656mm in height. For comparison, it slots somewhere between the BMW iX3 and the full-sized iX.
Built on Zeekr’s Sustainable Experience Architecture (the same platform you’ll find under the Lotus Eletre), the 7X promises a spacious cabin.
Generous head and leg room will go along with 32 different storage compartments for all the bits and bobs that come with family life. And with a 616-litre boot, there’s space for more than just the weekly grocery run.
The tech onboard doesn’t disappoint either. A dual Nvidia Orin-X system powers the car’s smart driving assistance, which includes Lidar, high-definition cameras, and millimetre-wave radar.
That said, some of these futuristic features might not make it beyond China’s borders. As for entertainment, the 7X is packing a Qualcomm 8295 chipset, which should keep all the in-car screens snappy and responsive.
Expect the first 7X deliveries in China by the end of September 2024, with global rollouts slated to follow within the next year.
