Zeekr 7X: electric SUV, generations, batteries and what to know
The Zeekr 7X is a mid-size electric coupe SUV launched in 2024, which will go on sale in Europe from 2025. In this article, we look at its engines, batteries, trims and what to know when hunting for a new or early used car.
7X in brief
The Zeekr 7X is the electric luxury marque Zeekr’s model from the Geely group, built on the 800V SEA platform, which also underpins the Zeekr 007 sedan. Its rivals include the Tesla Model Y, XPeng G6 and other mid-size electric SUVs.
The car made its debut in August 2024 in China, with production starting that same September. The first cars will arrive in Europe (initially the Netherlands, Sweden and Norway) in 2025. Due to this short timeframe, there aren’t many used Zeekr 7Xs around yet, so you’ll mostly be choosing between new and a few months old.
Trims and updates
The Zeekr 7X is a single generation, but it has been updated for the 2026 model year (launched in China in October 2025): front and rear elements have been revised, aerodynamics improved, engines made more powerful, and long-range versions get a 900V architecture and a larger, 103kWh battery.
In Europe, three main trims are offered: Core RWD, Long Range RWD and Privilege AWD. The European version does not have the front interactive “Stargate” screen that cars for the Chinese market do.
Engines and batteries
The rear-wheel drive (RWD) version has a single 310 kW (around 421 hp) engine, while the all-wheel drive (AWD) version has an additional 165 kW (around 224 hp) front engine, bringing the total power to 475 kW (around 646 hp). After the 2026 update, power increased further: the rear engine delivers 375 kW, and the total AWD power is around 585 kW.
The main battery is a 75 kWh LFP (lithium iron phosphate) with a claimed range of around 605 km according to the CLTC cycle; the long-range version features a 100 kWh NMC battery (up to around 780 km according to CLTC). The CLTC cycle is more optimistic than the WLTP used in Europe, so real-world range will be lower.
Like other electric vehicles, the 7X doesn't have a conventional multi-speed transmission — power is delivered through a single-speed transmission.
What to check when buying a Zeekr 7X
Since the car is new, the most important thing is to ensure it has a European warranty and was sold officially or through a reputable importer. Ask for the battery warranty terms and check if the car has the necessary ES conformity documentation.
Test the charging: how long it takes from 10 to 80 percent, and whether the car properly connects to both alternating and direct current charging stations. Check the software version and ensure updates are performed officially.
In the showroom, test the 16-inch screen, driver assistance systems, and cameras — some features depend on the market, so ask if everything works as described.
