    Having test driven both the volvo EX 30 and the Zeekr X , it was really no competition ,the Zeekr wins hands down with a lot more "premium" interior and all the extra's you get as standard that are paid options on the EX 30( it would have been nearlt 10.000 euro"s more expensive then the Zeekr) and than the things you cannot even get on an EX 30 (like the head up display!) how a brand like Volvo (and Tesla) who are alwways big on safety , can think that having to do everything on a central display and call that safe is beyond me , i drive a Zeekr X AWD now and i'm not regretting that choice .. :)

    • @travellover3373
      @travellover3373 22 дні тому

      Do you use the heads up display in controlling radio volume, channel, navigation and others? I can't believe a company like Zeeker which is known for quality and safety doesn't incorporate all these things on the heads up display.

  • @jansenwilder1335

    The Zeekr X white interior is heavenly.. so classic.. tired of those typical black or dark grey interior.

    I saw the Zeekr 001 & X in the shanghai dealer showroom.. built quality is premium. Gorgeous designer , didnt test drive it.. but I would say the Zeekr X main challenge is the Xpeng G6 .

    I agree, the Zeekr X is a nicer car than the Atto 3 but you will be paying $15k more for it in Australia (based on XC30 price of $60k) For a lot of people this price gap will be to much to even consider the Zeekr X.

  • @timfehlberg9051
    @timfehlberg9051 20 днів тому

    I love the digital door handles but they definitely need some other way to open them manually. Especially in case of emergencies. Maybe the button still works as a manual unlock if something happens to the power function?

  • @stache64
    @stache64 21 день тому

    You don't use the heads up display for that but the info is displayed on the smaller screen in front of you ,you can switch wathever you want to control by pressing the bigger switch on the right side of the steering wheeel and then changing radio channel /volume or temp and ventilation settings with the right side "joystick" button.
    i haven't played around with the navigation that much but it will provide navigation information in the head up display.

    Test drove the EX30. It’s ok but I don’t love it. Looks to boxy for my liking. The Zeekr X looks a lot better.
    I wish both of them had faster charging and/or larger battery.

    Today I had a test drive of the Zeeker model X.
    In its own right, looks quite good, inside and out but parked next to the 001, it looks very down market.
    Drove the single motor, put it into sport mode and it’s more than plenty fast. Felt nice and nimble around town, never got a chance to try it on the highway.
    Single foot pedal only had two settings, either too soft/little effect or too hard. Neither mode felt natural like the Tesla.
    Biggest drawback was lack of luggage space. The frunk would maximum fit the charging cable, naught more. The rear luggage extremely shallow and wouldn’t fit my mum’s walker or a kids pushchair, maybe a stroller but then no room for groceries.
    Summary, I feel it was too compromised luggage space wise but also not the premium quality of the 001, ie ok but quite bland. Drive it like a ‘normal’ car but without the ease of a smooth single pedal EV.
    I wouldn’t consider this model.

    I'm convinced these companies don't want to sell volume. They want to sell luxury so they can keep the profits up. I just want a car with a battery and I hate luxury. These cars should be $40000 by now. I'd love a Tesla, but I just don't want leather seats heated seats electric slow moving adjustable seats. Crap crap crap.
