Zeekr X: compact electric crossover, versions and what to know
Zeekr X — the compact electric crossover from Chinese firm Zeekr (Geely Group), launched in 2023. In this article, we take a look at its design, versions, battery and what you need to know if you're considering buying this new model.
Zeekr X in brief
Zeekr X — the smaller of Zeekr's electric cars, aimed at urban and family use. It's built on Geely Group's SEA architecture and features a bold, futuristic design with distinctive headlights and rear styling.
It's a fairly new model, so there aren't many used examples around. Some cars have come from the Chinese market, while others are officially sold in Europe, so versions and equipment can vary.
Which version to choose
Zeekr X is offered with rear-wheel drive (one motor) or all-wheel drive (two motors). The rear-wheel-drive version is simpler and more economical, while the all-wheel-drive model is more powerful and offers better grip.
When choosing, it's important to check which market the car is intended for: equipment, boot type and warranty can differ between European and Chinese versions.
Battery and drivetrain
Zeekr X uses an approximately 66 kWh battery. The rear-wheel-drive version's power output is around 270 hp, while the all-wheel-drive version exceeds 400 hp. The exact range will depend on the version, market and driving conditions, so check the manufacturer's data.
Fast charging is supported, with charging speed depending on the specific version and charger. As with other cars, it's important for electric vehicles to know which charger standards they are equipped with.
What to check when buying a Zeekr X
Check if the car is officially intended for the European market: this affects the warranty, software, charging connection, and services. Ensure the car has no unpaid taxes or other legal issues.
Request a battery condition report and check the operation of all software functions, especially since some services may be limited outside the manufacturer's market boundaries.
Test all the driver assistance systems, cameras, and screen. Since the brand is new, check where you can service the car.
