Zeekr 7X New Car release, orders exceeded 20,000 units a week after presales started

Zeekr 7X gets 20,000 orders:

We wonder if you have noticed that the Zeekr 7X model, unveiled at the Chengdu Auto Show on August 30, has already received over 20,000 orders in its first week. This is a pure electric mid-size SUV with a starting price of 239,900 (33,850 USD). Although it is equipped with 800V fast charging as standard, the starting price of 239,900 (33,850 USD) is not cheap, so we can’t help but ask a question about this number of orders: Is the number of orders for the Zeekr 7X that exceeded 20,000 in the first week really valuable?

Of course, although we have some doubts about the number of orders for 20,000 vehicles, it is undeniable that the Zeekr 7X has received a lot of attention on the Chinese Internet and in real life since its release. After all, as the fifth new car of the Zeekr brand, the Zeekr 7X not only adopts Zeekr’s latest Hidden Energy design language but also has a simple and elegant interior. Coupled with its large five-seat interior layout, the maximum power of 310 kW for the single-motor version, the total power of 475 kW for the dual-motor version, and the 0-100 acceleration in 3 seconds, it is indeed difficult for ordinary people not to pay attention to it.

1. Power

In terms of power, two of the three models are rear-mounted single-motor versions with a maximum power of 310 kilowatts. It is expected that the acceleration will be around 5 seconds. The top-equipped dual-motor four-wheel drive has a front motor of 165 kilowatts and a rear motor of 310 kilowatts. The combined power reaches 475 kilowatts, and the zero-to-hundred acceleration is 3 seconds, which is comparable to the power of supercars.

In addition, in terms of battery packs, the new car will be equipped with a ternary lithium battery pack with a capacity of 100.01 kWh, using the Kirin battery of CATL, with a maximum range of about 780 kilometers. In addition, it provides 75 kWh of self-developed second-generation BRIC batteries with a range of more than 600 kilometers. It is worth mentioning that the battery’s maximum charging rate can reach 5.5C. With the 800V high-voltage platform, the battery SOC value can be charged from 10% to 80% in just 10.5 minutes. Charging for about 5 minutes can increase the range by about 240 kilometers. With this charging efficiency, there will be no concerns even if the battery capacity is smaller.

2. interior

There are also many highlights in the interior space. The minimalist interior provides a full LCD instrument, 16-inch floating 3.5K central control screen, dual wireless charging in the front row, and a standard 36.21-inch AR-HUD head-up display system. The screen has a built-in 8295 chip and is equipped with a ZEEKR AI OS system. There are three color schemes to choose from: purple and white, black and gray, and pure black.

The car is 4825 mm long, 1930 mm wide, 1666 mm high, and has a wheelbase of 2925 mm. It is a standard medium-sized SUV model, but the advantages of the pure electric platform are the wheelbase and space. The new car adopts a 5-seat layout, and the rear seats provide electric slide rails that are not available in the same class. The front and rear sliding travel reaches 215 mm, which can achieve a maximum 134° reclining angle of the rear seat backrest.

  • It is equivalent to moving the second row of seats of a 6-seat SUV or MPV to the car, providing leg rests, and having a more comfortable driving experience. In addition, the rear row also provides facilities such as smart screens and electronic tables, and everything that should be there is available.

3. exterior

The exterior is built with Hidden Energy design language, with the same front face design as Zeekr 007. The front of the car is simple and rounded. The integrated smart light curtain of ZEEKR Stargate is an optional item. I recommend not to install it as it is not very useful. The clamshell hood adopts an integrated design, and the gaps on both sides are integrated with the wheel eyebrow shape, which has a strong overall integrity. The side shape is simple, with a floating top design and hidden door handles. The taillights at the rear are narrow and use SUPER RED ultra-red LED technology. After lighting up, it is expected to have a high degree of recognition. The new car provides 7 body colors to choose from, including Polar Day white, polar night black, Star Twilight Gray, dawn brown, Forest Green, Stream Stone Blue, and Cloud Orange.

The chassis suspension adopts a front double wishbone and rear multi-link independent suspension, and is equipped with air suspension and CCD electromagnetic vibration reduction system. The chassis lifting range is 70 mm, and the maximum ground clearance can reach 230 mm.

6. Conclusion

Finally, We want to say that high attention does not mean high sales. What kind of sales performance will Zeekr 7X have in the future will also be tested by time and the market. So what else do you want to say about the Zeekr 7X? How much do you think it should sell for a big sale? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area, let’s discuss it together.
