My dual motor version gets (now in the winter) a bit more than 300km of range, doing mostly "aggressive" city driving. Though i did a highway trip a couple of weeks ago and this got better mileage (30% battery used for 150km). Turns out when you get "overpowered" EV cars, stop and go city driving can be less efficient than high speed highway driving. I've yet to charge it outside of the homecharger so can't comment on fast charging, usually charges it once a week overnight with a 7KW charger that takes about 8 hours for charging 60KWh which fits nicely in the low electricity charge time slot.
I sold a great Geely Geometric in favor of a ZEEKR X. Do you think the car has a good noise isolation at speeds of 100-120 km/h. Which model do you have single or dual engine. Thanks
@@leviyaakubov1875 I have the dual motor, though it's probably not necessary and you should consider the single motor one if you care about range. Noise insulation is good and I did not have to complain about it, even on highway. It is better than my older car (BMW 328GT).
This car and the Xiamo SU7 are the 2 cars I would buy if available in my area of the US. I own stock in Geely, from which Zeekr was spun off, as well as stock in Xiaomi. 这辆车和小米SU7是我在美国地区可用的2辆汽车。我拥有吉利（Geely）的股票，Zeekr从中脱离了股票，以及小米的库存。 I also own stock in NIO.我也在尼奥拥有库存.
The rate of progress of the Chinese automobile industry is insane. Too bad NZ would probably never see much of these on our shores... the big SUV and pickup-truck craze is far too strong.

Got to say this looks absolutely nice. Is like something fresh and original unlike today's majority offerings of messy lines, unecessary angles and edges and, worse of all, lost. And despite being a small hatchback, I am surprised how luxurious it is equipped.
Great! Where have you been….? Missed your weekly reviews and was hoping to get something from guangzhou motor show, hope we are back to the regular reviews.. keep up the good work….
Haha, apologies for that. I have a little one on the way and it's taken more of my time than hoped in the build-up, which also meant I had to miss Guangzhou as we were expecting them. Normal service is resuming.
Coming to Europe very soon but unaware if the various series will be all available. Clearly this car shows a very luxurious detailed design inside as outside. It will a tough competition to the very few European brands that will offer similar environments. Think it will be on the premium models at a much higher cost. Well done, once again and thank you very much for the detailed oriented presentation. Great job. Merci!
Thanks very much. Would be great if it goes there. If they go RHD at some point it should be possible. They're getting a lot of Chinese brands there now.
Depends which bits you're talking about. I use an Osmo 5 for some but I do a lot of handheld too. For the scenes in the intro music, I use a rail to get the beauty shots as smooth as possible.
@@InsideChinaAuto I still have to get used to it, I think you have to fully indicate (not just tap it) then it takes a second but it should show in the central screen that it's looking for a spot in the lane and if there is room it does the lane change. If there is no room it triggers the blind spot chime of robotic death (I always forget to turn that off in the settings) and cancels the lane change and indicator... so better look first and indicate only if yu know it can make it.
@jwickerszh Haha. I hope you always look first and indicate, or have you been here so long you drive like a local now? No wait, they don't look or indicate. As you were.
@@InsideChinaAuto well if it's doing it by itself I'd rather indicate and let it do it whenever it can than have it scream like an emergency broadcast system and shame me for indicating too early 😅
What a fabulous car, It has a great looking road stance & looks fantastic inside & out, Love it, I cant wait to see them over here in the UK/EU, I just wish they were here now as I've just ordered a MG ZS EV Trophy model. Legacy auto must think it's game over for them when they see the calibre of these Chinese BEV's. Great review thank you.
It's a great car, real eye catcher and full of substance. Priced right, I think this would go down a storm as it's the right kind of car for Europe. It was designed in Gothenburg so they'd know.
Excellent review. The 4 wheel version of this car and the Xiamo SU7 are the 2 cars I would buy if available in my area of the US. I need front or 4-wheel drive because of snow in my region. Third would be the Vinfast VF3 or VF6. I prefer function and reliability over glitz and acceleration. I also prefer more buttons and less touch screen usage. Charging time, bidirectional charging and driving range are also important considerationa with certain price points. BTW, I own stock in Geely, from which Zeekr was spun off, as well as stock in Xiaomi.
You're doing well with both of those then. You may even get a chance to buy some Zeekr stock too, soon. I'm looking forward to driving the SU7 when it comes. Can't say I'd recommend VinFast though based on what I've read about their cars.
Really is. Shame those outside of China don't get all the functionality yet, though Zeekr confirmed they're testing the reliability in China before other markets get the cool stuff.
Great video again. However, you slack! :) :) Where is the Farizon SuperVan Part 2 video? :) I would also love to watch videos of the newer models, like Zeekr 007, Avatr 12, Luxeed, etc.
The only issue with the suspension is with vertical movements, I've never had it feel leaning side to side but if you ever drive over a section of road sharply going up and then down (like some small bridges) it feels more squishy than other cars I drove. It feels like the car is going down further than it needs to and bounce back up a bit more as well, although it does not keep bouncing after that.
It's really Chinese/Swedish. It's designed in Sweden by a team of Europeans and people don't realize that the SEA platform from Geely was chief engineered by a Swedish ex-Saab engineer. A fair amount of Lynk and Co. and Zeekr work is done in Sweden. Yes, it's in the Geely Group and designed for the Chinese market. But it is also more Euro and international-centric in its approach. The platform is flexible so whatever is going with Smart or Volvo may yield similar numbers, but those cars may drive and feel quite different from the Zeekr. Sometimes same platform cars feel similar, sometimes they don't. Zeekr seems to be "softer" in its approach than certainly Volvo and Smart looks like it takes a Mercedes approach except for the interface.
Indeed. I've sat and interviewed Kent Bovellan about this platform and it's quite amazing. The metrics are much better than pretty much every other car they tested against. It's an impressive bit of work. If argue this car is actually designed for Europe with Chinese characteristics as cars of this size don't do too well in China, whereas Europe will lap up the smart, Volvo and Zeekr compact models as they're much more suited to our roads and personal mobility preferences.
@@InsideChinaAuto Excellent. Yes, it's an excellent and flexible platform and that's why Mercedes, Renault and use it. Geely has done well with identifying and hiring some Swedish and Euro engineers/designers as well as setting up a few operations in Sweden to establish a bit of a foothold there. My opinion is the CEVT brands like Zeekr and Lynk and Co. allow Geely to customize and blend Swedish and Chinese engineering/design together where Volvo and Polestar can have more of a measure of autonomy in their designs and content. Then there's the English side, London Taxi and Lotus that can be developed/expanded and maybe new brands that can come from that relationship. Geely Holding is a powerhouse.
There is no doubt that this is a high-quality and promising product. In addition to everything said here. I am happy to put an important emphasis on countries with modern domestic electricity capabilities. Geely company emphasizes on 22 kW AC home charging. This also includes the Volvo EX30 Ultra models. Smart. and ZEERK X
RWD 4-seater, mostly slow city commute drives, with lots of stops-and-gos in traffic, 420km of range on average. Lovely car, poweful and definitely eye-catching, the only miss is probably the "wobbly" feeling when braking or maneuvering aggresively.
I'll add a few things that annoy me for now: - the indicator sound is a bit too loud and high pitched I miss the subtle ticking of the BMW... Also it plays over the speakers (which should make it easy to change) but sometimes miss a beat randomly (if other notifications are playing) - the 360 view popping up when indicating is great when parking but the 3d view is useless as 8t doesn't even show you your blind spot angle (have top tap the screen to show the rear quarter view instead of the front quarter which I can already perfectly see from the driver seat, thanks) ... They should add an option to change the default angle ... And rear tinted windows by default means good luck spotting incoming ebikes ... Also I'd like an option to turn those aids popping up when the screen is over to the passenger side - could use an extra cup holder, right now you can only secure one cup. You can unfold it but the bottom won't hold a cup properly - the phone as wireless key 8s great, everytime I walk the dog the car unlocks when I pass by it ... And everytime I walk to the car with the intention of driving it doesn't 😅 I swear she does that on purpose... (No issues with the actual key fob though, it's a phone thing) - the car turns off when you leave someone in without the key (phone), sometimes it does that when you go out and get back in the passenger side (though it wakes up by using the gear selector)
Update: I was randomly looking at the sound settings while waiting at a red light and had the indicator on, turns out there is a setting for Alarm Sound level (defaults to High) which I change to Middle and that also changes the indicator sound level ... 🤯 It's much better now
Hmm, good question. You may be waiting a while. You guys are held back by your neighbours who are afraid of letting Chinese cars in so I can't say honestly.
@@InsideChinaAuto I don't know if it is "afraid to" or just posturing. If US cars are sold in China, then it seems fair that Chinese cars can be sold in the USA. But I don't define Chinese cars the way others do. I think home-grown Chinese cars are Chinese (though often enough with Euro or other collaborations). I don't consider Volvo or Polestar Chinese at all. I consider them Swedish and Lotus British, hence, they are sold in the USA and at least Volvo and Lotus have been for some time. Polestar is just an offshoot of Volvo, their sports division. But BYD, XPeng, Nio, home-grown brands like that, aren't in the USA. Yet BYD buses are. Zeekr would have to be a new brand in the USA and I would emphasize the Swedish part of it more than anything else. Like, it's a part of Saab reborn (marketing) were it ever to enter the USA. But if I were Volvo or Polestar or Lotus, I'm not sure I'd want a fellow Geely Group car competing with my offerings. And there is a lot of anti-Chinese sentiment going on in the USA and the still now outmoded notion that Chinese quality is low.
@benjaminsmith2287 I think US legacy auto knows it can't compete with what's coming out of China at the moment and lobbying is a big thing there. They probably want time to get up to speed before they have real competition as not everyone is anti-China there despite what the media would have us believe. Most just want choice, be that large or small. Volvo has some special deal in place to get around the battery rules, some kind of credit swapping, so their Chinese made cars can get in tariff-free, but I think that's down to them also having factories in the US. The Chinese brands will likely have to build there to be given a pass.
@@InsideChinaAuto There is the mess of lobbying for sure. But there's still the dismissive attitude that Chinese is inferior in quality. It was there with Korean and Japanese cars at one point. They're in for a rude awakening. More enlightened people certainly are aware of the Chinese brands capabilities and advancements. In the USA, Volvo has few made-in-China models offered. There's the S90, hardly a seller at all, and the upcoming EX30 which will change to Belgium in a few years. Polestars, however, are made in China until the Polestar 3 is introduced that's made in the USA. Chinese battery factories in joint ventures with US factories will be the first in. And that's meeting resistance. Then at some point some factories can build cars that are actually spec'd in China by BYD or another big homegrown Chinese carmaker. The process may take time, patience, and persistence.
Thanks for the review. Mostly, i am not a fan of 4 door cars in general, but this one is not to bad in design. Most car designers seem to have died in the windtunnels. I do miss the free thinking designers of the 40th thru to the 70th. After that periode cars designers are dominated by managers and fuel efficiency numbers. Affordable cars are build for the boring masses. the boring masses demand boring cars that look like the cars everyone has. So, you get 4 door practical boxes on wheels.
Very true, which is why I really liked the thought that went into this one. Certainly looks nothing like a smart or an EX30 inside or out so they've done great in terms of having their own look. It's sad when money gets in the way of good design.
For me, there has to be a camper version of a car or van. It has to be comfortable, spacious and have all the right equipment for spending a weekend away!!
This model is coming to singapore this year, together with another MPV model called 009 i think. Finally another chinese EV brand after BYD, MG and ora good cat. Wonder when Nio or xpeng or any other chinese EV brands will arrive?
Yeah, great brand Zeekr, good to have them in your country. Sure your choices will continue to grow in the years ahead. Interesting that they're going right hand drive though. Surely that unlocks the UK for them too.
Another great review I really love car this looks exactly like i want, about the last I'm in Australia 🦘. Hopefully they will come but who knows. BTW. Been what watching some Chinese driving videos I saw a lot of speed cameras , so you're there what's it really like, and are the penalties high and enforced strongly, also saw a lot of 30 and 40 km zones to , that's pretty slow. Let me know. Regards John
Hey John. Thanks for watching. About Zeekr, I do hope they get to Oz too. If they get to the UK at some point, I can't see why not Oz too. As for the cameras, they're nearly all not speed cameras. They're mostly monitoring cameras, checking plates, so if you do bad and there's a plate they can track, they can see where you went, and also monitoring for things like going straight on in a left turn lane, things like that. Speed cameras are not that prominent, and as in many countries some provinces have more than others, like Zhejiang for example. I don't think they're so strictly policed to be honest judging by how some people drive through them, and finest are not huge unless you really take the p!ss. More than 50% over is a lifetime ban I heard someone say but I'm not 100% certain. 30 and 40 is really only for small urban roads where honestly there are a LOT of road users, people and bikes and so on, so they make sense, but mostly in cities you'll find 50 or 60, sometimes 80 depending on the road so it's not bad. I make this part of my livelihood from driving so I don't push it and I've cooled off in later life too.
Hi,Thank you for such a detailed response that's really interesting I have been watching lots of UA-cam on China over the last week and I am quite amazed at diversity and culture, infrastructure, their food and so on , what i have noticed is it appears to be very clean,no graphiti, unlike Melbourne where I live . Would love to visit one day it's truly a leading country. Regards John
@@johnharris4600 Well worth a visit John. If you do come, give yourself plenty of time too. China is a lot like the States in that the landscape varies hugely from one part to another, as does the culture and food. It's a neverending discovery, that's one of the things I like about it. Far from perfect, nowhere is, but if you like wonderful food, stunning landscapes, variety of cars, super infrastructure, etc, it will surely amaze you. And you're right, graffiti is almost non-existent in China. It can be found if you look hard enough, but people generally have better stuff to do.
I still think GMs charge port is bigger. Check out Blazer EV or the Cadillac Lyriq 😅. Atleast the Zeekr seems and sounds confidence inspiring, like it may hold up for the life of the vehicle.
@cocoaiscool2709 Not sure how they'd make it look any different. I did see an AVATR 12 today though and that looks even better in person than in pictures. Stunning.
I always think how reliable these Chinese cars are? Where's Electric motor come from? This car and some other Chinese car looks fantastic, but feature of electric cars unknown because battery is very expensive part I like the Idea of battery swapping with nio.
With NIO you never have to own the battery, and if you need a bigger one, you can swap it in and out. It's a pretty good use case. The motors likely come from China, like most things, and they're pretty good at them.
Great design, beautiful car, awesome and comfortable interior.... But wait until 15K-20K miles. Or, even kilometers. That's when people start getting into the problems with Zeekr.
@@benjaminsmith2287 Drive bearing is pretty weak. Has to be replaced too often. One Zeekr owner was replacing the oil on the reduction gears in the front and rear, and after 15000 km he did find the liquid all black with a lot of metal shavings in it. Zeekr is not ready, yet for low temps. One should be very careful with the car wash as the water gets into the charging port, and you can get all kind of errors.
Not sure if this has been mentioned yet. You kept making reference to the Smart #1 to this car but I think you meant Smart #3? The Sister/Cousin vehicle to this Zeekr X and EX30 is the Smart #3, not the Smart #1.
Not true. Both the smart #1 and #3 are sisters of this car. Both sit on the SEA 2 platform, but the #3 is slightly longer than the #1 to make for the coupe roofline.
it does have 100 mm longer wheelbase than the volvo, nicer space inside, but with the EU prices being higher than the Volvo i dont think they will sell a lot of them.
Is the Volvo inferior to the Zeekr? I very much doubt it!! In fact, I think the Volvo is one of the best electric vehicles available. It’s got so many plaudits that I might have one in the future.
I can't speak to the Volvos chassis tuning, but overall I find this to be a much more considered car. The Volvo isn't innovative enough for me and the focus on sustainable materials means it doesn't feel quite as luxurious inside. This is more considered for space and how people, particularly how Chinese customers, like to use their car. This feels special, where the Volvo feels 'meh, it's alright, nice enough'.
@@InsideChinaAuto I think the Volvo feels more "special" due to its more Volvo approach of Scandinavian design, sustainable materials and such. And when I say Scandi design it's not only styling but design choices like the materials and life cycle of the whole car. And using a sound bar and the way the center armrest hides its cupholders seems fairly innovative to me. That's where the Volvo innovates. The Zeekr car tends to have more in common with expected 'premium" content whereas the Volvo is more forward looking in its much more understated approach. Yes, Zeekr may be a better approach for maybe some in the Chinese market, and that's why I think Volvo is not necessarily that appealing to the Chinese market as a marque. Volvo's main market remains the Euro market.
@benjaminsmith2287 I suppose the best part is that three cars on the same platform have very different characters and selling points, which in the end is best for the customer. They're not simply copy paste with very few differences like the C1/Aygo/107 things.
Now this would finally be the EV that i would buy. I would give up my luxurious Jaguar XJl which at 41 thousand dollars is paid off. Range is 570 miles. I would buy the Zeekr X at 50 thousand dollars and has a range of over 600 miles. But there's one thing, it's not available in the United States of America. So I'll keep my jaguar XJl. But they can keep all that computer crap which does absolutely nothing but removes the joy of driving...
@@InsideChinaAuto Oh that's great. There's only one thing, can i fully charge from absolute 0 to 100 percent in 3 to 5 minutes, the same amount of time it takes me to fully fuel a regular car? Not 20 minutes or 20 hours. But still dosent matter, not available in the United States of America..
@carlsmith5545 Not quite 3-5 minutes, but what's your car doing while you're at the office? Out having a coffee on its own? Chatting up Lambrettas down at the beach? Paragliding through the mountains? Or is it sat doing nothing like other cars?
@@InsideChinaAuto I drive my car every day. So what, and? What are you doing? It doesn't matter but, what does mater to me is, I would love to buy an EV. EVs are great! Add the ability to fully charge from absolute 0 to 100 percent in, "yes!" 3 to 5 minutes, not 20 minutes or 20 hours, the same amount of time it takes me to fully fuel a regular car and also add 500 miles of range without paying close to a hundred grand, then the EV will become even greater. Now can you actually disagree with that? You mean to tell me you wouldn't buy it? I would!! Yes, i would give up my car payment free life, i would pay a little more that the 41 thousand dollars i paid, i would give up the additional 70 miles of range and settle for the even 500 miles and take the EV....all day! Especially if it's a large full size luxurious car. Come out with a better EV with these fine qualities and improvements, now we're talkin!! Im all in. I'll go to the bank tomorrow morning. But the truth is, with no fault to you or to me, that kind of EV doesn't exsist. The good people at Tesla in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, USA told me quote, "Have patience because that day is coming." So im going to do just that. Im going to have patience and waite for the next generation EV with the hopes that these fine qualities and improvements have been applied. We will see.......
Twice the price in Europe. No pink/burgundy color. The Smart #3 is the same but maybe even better. Perhaps not as luxurious (but not by far), I wasn't able to test the Zeekr X it since it's not available in France yet.
The first thing against this car is the interior colour schemes but then we go onto all the ridiculous features that no everyday motorist want like the sliding screen and fold back passenger seat. Zeekr would do better concentrating what the average owner wants and not what he could have.
This kind of tech goes down a storm in China where people like to spend more time in their car enjoying entertainment. They also don't much like having pets on their seats, hence the folding seats in the back. In the 5-seat version you don't get any of that fancy stuff anyway so you can just go with that one.
@@InsideChinaAuto Fair point. It's designed for its "home market." For the Euro market, the center screen does not slide from what I know. And the lux options are options. Zeekr is trying to give bang for the buck as a young brand so it makes sense to sort of load them up and also there's so much competition in China so tech may be used to distinguish cars more than in other markets.
HELLO DEAR I NEEDED YOUR HELP ALREADY HAVE ELECTRIC CAR ZEEKR X MODEL NEW 2023 BUT HAVE BIG PROBLEM THE SYSTEM COMING CHINESE LANGUAGE NOT ENGLISH SCREEN ALL LANGUAGE CHINESE I WANT CHANGE THE LANGUAGE CHINESE TO ENGLISH I I'M READY TO PAY MONEY FOR THIS PLEASE YOU CAN HELP THANK YOU SO MUCH MY PLEASURE
Would be really great car IF ONLY the battery range would be around 550 km, or higher, and not just 20-25%... Real minimum 500 km of range is my non-negotiable condition.

Nice video and a good looking car. The other part of me wanna mockingly say: "oh, face recognition, finger ptint readers etc.. Exactly what i'd been dreaming of. Is the next model wanna suck my blood or do i need to have a brain chip installed in order to access it?" 🤔 Call it progress or if someone wants call me names, feel free, but lets realize it's gone toooooo far and that's not the end of it 👎
Haha, I doubt they'll ever come for your blood, that would be over the line. I know a lot won't want facial recognition either, even though they use it to unlock their phone and they're not worried about Samsung or Apple gathering your data. In China at least, tech is popular, and people are lazy, they don't want keys and wallets, they have QR codes for that, and this is just an extension. We're all on camera somewhere.
@@InsideChinaAuto you're right. Laziness, "convenience", pre-programming, mind control/propaganda/marketing has brought us where we are now.. The saddesst part is that's not the end. Some say it's just the beginning. Let's wait and see where it leads to and how much more people find "not too much".
@@InsideChinaAuto also true the blood sucking car would be over the line. It's totally okay though the greed obsessed bandits in suits sucking our blood through stealing and trading our personal data etc.. plus probably much more we don't even dare to guess yet
@@InsideChinaAuto But is it laziness to prefer not bringing keys and wallets, which both add weight and take up physical space? I think we're looking at smaller form factors and finding digital solutions, something that's been ongoing everywhere. Most hotel keys are now cards, no longer physical keys. I think self-opening doors are gimmicky, however. Unless you have physical issues, I'm not sure they're luxury vs. gadgetry. In fact, that's the main argument. What is luxury/ enhanced functionality and what is gadgetry/gimmicky? Sometimes that's a personal definition.
Hello, happy new year! 🪐🚀🎉 Even people without brains will know this technology. Many people think that replacing the battery is useless. This is wrong. Why is this so? Here are the highlights of the battery swap station. 1. If the battery is aging, you can replace it with a new one. 2. People living in apartments have no place to charge their batteries 3. In winter, when you don’t want to get out of the car, your hands will get dirty, just like the rainy season🌧 4. Suitable for beauties who drive electric cars, whose charging cables are too heavy, or who get their hands and feet dirty. 5. People who drive long distances can choose to replace or upgrade the battery. 6. People who are in a hurry don’t have time to wait for charging 7. The benefits of battery swapping technology are so numerous that many companies are considering partnering with NIO. 8. People who want to upgrade their car batteries to higher wattage...etc. The benefits of an electric car with swappable batteries are endless, aren’t they?
My dual motor version gets (now in the winter) a bit more than 300km of range, doing mostly "aggressive" city driving. Though i did a highway trip a couple of weeks ago and this got better mileage (30% battery used for 150km).
Turns out when you get "overpowered" EV cars, stop and go city driving can be less efficient than high speed highway driving.
I've yet to charge it outside of the homecharger so can't comment on fast charging, usually charges it once a week overnight with a 7KW charger that takes about 8 hours for charging 60KWh which fits nicely in the low electricity charge time slot.
Haha, great, I was hoping you'd share some ownership experience. This is exactly what the comments section is for.
I sold a great Geely Geometric in favor of a ZEEKR X. Do you think the car has a good noise isolation at speeds of 100-120 km/h. Which model do you have single or dual engine. Thanks
@@leviyaakubov1875 I have the dual motor, though it's probably not necessary and you should consider the single motor one if you care about range.
Noise insulation is good and I did not have to complain about it, even on highway. It is better than my older car (BMW 328GT).

Plzzzz we need a full review for the iCar 03.....you are the best
Yesss❤❤❤❤
It will be the best car in 2024 by farrr ❤❤❤
It will be the first cause till now there is no one detailed full review in English so far
Defibrillator will try
Coming to Europe very soon but unaware if the various series will be all available. Clearly this car shows a very luxurious detailed design inside as outside. It will a tough competition to the very few European brands that will offer similar environments. Think it will be on the premium models at a much higher cost. Well done, once again and thank you very much for the detailed oriented presentation. Great job. Merci!
Glad you like it, and hope these end up in France very soon, as I'm sure they will.
Another great review. Thank you. I also hope it comes to Thailand.
Thanks very much. Would be great if it goes there. If they go RHD at some point it should be possible. They're getting a lot of Chinese brands there now.
die Chinesen sind unglaublich schnell in der Entwicklung. Man kommt aus dem Staunen nicht raus .☺
The speed has been something incredible to witness. They're very fast learners.
Beautiful car! Hopefully it comes to Thailandd
Can I ask what gimbal do you use to shoot your videos?🙏
Depends which bits you're talking about. I use an Osmo 5 for some but I do a lot of handheld too. For the scenes in the intro music, I use a rail to get the beauty shots as smooth as possible.
17:50 it does not overtake automatically but if you do indicate (manually) it then does change lanes automatically.
Ah, it wasn't doing that during my test but good to know that it does.
@@InsideChinaAuto I still have to get used to it, I think you have to fully indicate (not just tap it) then it takes a second but it should show in the central screen that it's looking for a spot in the lane and if there is room it does the lane change.
If there is no room it triggers the blind spot chime of robotic death (I always forget to turn that off in the settings) and cancels the lane change and indicator... so better look first and indicate only if yu know it can make it.
@jwickerszh Haha. I hope you always look first and indicate, or have you been here so long you drive like a local now? No wait, they don't look or indicate. As you were.
@@InsideChinaAuto well if it's doing it by itself I'd rather indicate and let it do it whenever it can than have it scream like an emergency broadcast system and shame me for indicating too early 😅
@@jwickerszh Indeed. The buzzers are a bit over the top at times.
Amazing rate of progress in China
Amazing funding
They make some brilliant cars here now. The progress is relentless.
Bever forget Tiananmen Square massacre
@@ohsnapsonbro4260 What about it?
@@alexpang5054 just posting it so Chinese people who pay this fool get scared.
What a fabulous car, It has a great looking road stance & looks fantastic inside & out, Love it, I cant wait to see them over here in the UK/EU, I just wish they were here now as I've just ordered a MG ZS EV Trophy model.
Legacy auto must think it's game over for them when they see the calibre of these Chinese BEV's.
Great review thank you.
It's a great car, real eye catcher and full of substance. Priced right, I think this would go down a storm as it's the right kind of car for Europe. It was designed in Gothenburg so they'd know.
Thank you
No problem.
I like the Aion Y (Plus). Very comfortable and spacious.
I like the AION Y too, it's massive inside and costs almost nothing.
Interior design really is exquisite and clean 🫧
It is, a real step up on the EX30 in my opinion which is spartan in comparison.

Excellent review. The 4 wheel version of this car and the Xiamo SU7 are the 2 cars I would buy if available in my area of the US. I need front or 4-wheel drive because of snow in my region. Third would be the Vinfast VF3 or VF6. I prefer function and reliability over glitz and acceleration. I also prefer more buttons and less touch screen usage. Charging time, bidirectional charging and driving range are also important considerationa with certain price points. BTW, I own stock in Geely, from which Zeekr was spun off, as well as stock in Xiaomi.
You're doing well with both of those then. You may even get a chance to buy some Zeekr stock too, soon. I'm looking forward to driving the SU7 when it comes. Can't say I'd recommend VinFast though based on what I've read about their cars.
That interior is so very beautiful ❤️
Really is. Shame those outside of China don't get all the functionality yet, though Zeekr confirmed they're testing the reliability in China before other markets get the cool stuff.
Great video again. However, you slack! :) :) Where is the Farizon SuperVan Part 2 video? :) I would also love to watch videos of the newer models, like Zeekr 007, Avatr 12, Luxeed, etc.
Haha, chasing all of those I assure you. The Supervan drive is coming this month so will have a video by about Christmas.
The only issue with the suspension is with vertical movements, I've never had it feel leaning side to side but if you ever drive over a section of road sharply going up and then down (like some small bridges) it feels more squishy than other cars I drove. It feels like the car is going down further than it needs to and bounce back up a bit more as well, although it does not keep bouncing after that.
Definitely gives that feeling, more so than the smart #1 did from memory.
It's really Chinese/Swedish. It's designed in Sweden by a team of Europeans and people don't realize that the SEA platform from Geely was chief engineered by a Swedish ex-Saab engineer. A fair amount of Lynk and Co. and Zeekr work is done in Sweden. Yes, it's in the Geely Group and designed for the Chinese market. But it is also more Euro and international-centric in its approach.
The platform is flexible so whatever is going with Smart or Volvo may yield similar numbers, but those cars may drive and feel quite different from the Zeekr. Sometimes same platform cars feel similar, sometimes they don't. Zeekr seems to be "softer" in its approach than certainly Volvo and Smart looks like it takes a Mercedes approach except for the interface.
Indeed. I've sat and interviewed Kent Bovellan about this platform and it's quite amazing. The metrics are much better than pretty much every other car they tested against. It's an impressive bit of work.
If argue this car is actually designed for Europe with Chinese characteristics as cars of this size don't do too well in China, whereas Europe will lap up the smart, Volvo and Zeekr compact models as they're much more suited to our roads and personal mobility preferences.
@@InsideChinaAuto Excellent. Yes, it's an excellent and flexible platform and that's why Mercedes, Renault and use it. Geely has done well with identifying and hiring some Swedish and Euro engineers/designers as well as setting up a few operations in Sweden to establish a bit of a foothold there. My opinion is the CEVT brands like Zeekr and Lynk and Co. allow Geely to customize and blend Swedish and Chinese engineering/design together where Volvo and Polestar can have more of a measure of autonomy in their designs and content. Then there's the English side, London Taxi and Lotus that can be developed/expanded and maybe new brands that can come from that relationship. Geely Holding is a powerhouse.
Thank you!
You're very welcome.
A comparison with the Deepal S7 will be interesting especially with the release of the S7i 620 Max new version.
Still trying to get a Deepal because they look pretty good. Will keep trying.
There is no doubt that this is a high-quality and promising product. In addition to everything said here. I am happy to put an important emphasis on countries with modern domestic electricity capabilities. Geely company emphasizes on 22 kW AC home charging. This also includes the Volvo EX30 Ultra models. Smart. and ZEERK X
22kW at home is good stuff.
RWD 4-seater, mostly slow city commute drives, with lots of stops-and-gos in traffic, 420km of range on average.
Lovely car, poweful and definitely eye-catching, the only miss is probably the "wobbly" feeling when braking or maneuvering aggresively.
It's great, I love it. A little stiffer suspension would finish it off nicely.
WOW! Its got everything! Including a frig! 😂😂🤩🤩😘
Not only that but one you can take out the car!
One zeeker X for me :)
Finland soon (I'm guessing?)
I'll add a few things that annoy me for now:
- the indicator sound is a bit too loud and high pitched I miss the subtle ticking of the BMW... Also it plays over the speakers (which should make it easy to change) but sometimes miss a beat randomly (if other notifications are playing)
- the 360 view popping up when indicating is great when parking but the 3d view is useless as 8t doesn't even show you your blind spot angle (have top tap the screen to show the rear quarter view instead of the front quarter which I can already perfectly see from the driver seat, thanks) ... They should add an option to change the default angle ... And rear tinted windows by default means good luck spotting incoming ebikes ... Also I'd like an option to turn those aids popping up when the screen is over to the passenger side
- could use an extra cup holder, right now you can only secure one cup. You can unfold it but the bottom won't hold a cup properly
- the phone as wireless key 8s great, everytime I walk the dog the car unlocks when I pass by it ... And everytime I walk to the car with the intention of driving it doesn't 😅 I swear she does that on purpose... (No issues with the actual key fob though, it's a phone thing)
- the car turns off when you leave someone in without the key (phone), sometimes it does that when you go out and get back in the passenger side (though it wakes up by using the gear selector)
Update: I was randomly looking at the sound settings while waiting at a red light and had the indicator on, turns out there is a setting for Alarm Sound level (defaults to High) which I change to Middle and that also changes the indicator sound level ... 🤯
It's much better now
while I wouldn't go with that color pallete on the interior but it looks incredible
Agreed. Maybe the green for me, or the white and blue more likely
So when will it be in Canada Zeekr?
Hmm, good question. You may be waiting a while. You guys are held back by your neighbours who are afraid of letting Chinese cars in so I can't say honestly.
@@InsideChinaAuto I don't know if it is "afraid to" or just posturing. If US cars are sold in China, then it seems fair that Chinese cars can be sold in the USA. But I don't define Chinese cars the way others do. I think home-grown Chinese cars are Chinese (though often enough with Euro or other collaborations). I don't consider Volvo or Polestar Chinese at all. I consider them Swedish and Lotus British, hence, they are sold in the USA and at least Volvo and Lotus have been for some time. Polestar is just an offshoot of Volvo, their sports division. But BYD, XPeng, Nio, home-grown brands like that, aren't in the USA. Yet BYD buses are. Zeekr would have to be a new brand in the USA and I would emphasize the Swedish part of it more than anything else. Like, it's a part of Saab reborn (marketing) were it ever to enter the USA. But if I were Volvo or Polestar or Lotus, I'm not sure I'd want a fellow Geely Group car competing with my offerings. And there is a lot of anti-Chinese sentiment going on in the USA and the still now outmoded notion that Chinese quality is low.
@benjaminsmith2287 I think US legacy auto knows it can't compete with what's coming out of China at the moment and lobbying is a big thing there. They probably want time to get up to speed before they have real competition as not everyone is anti-China there despite what the media would have us believe. Most just want choice, be that large or small. Volvo has some special deal in place to get around the battery rules, some kind of credit swapping, so their Chinese made cars can get in tariff-free, but I think that's down to them also having factories in the US. The Chinese brands will likely have to build there to be given a pass.
@@InsideChinaAuto There is the mess of lobbying for sure. But there's still the dismissive attitude that Chinese is inferior in quality. It was there with Korean and Japanese cars at one point. They're in for a rude awakening. More enlightened people certainly are aware of the Chinese brands capabilities and advancements.
In the USA, Volvo has few made-in-China models offered. There's the S90, hardly a seller at all, and the upcoming EX30 which will change to Belgium in a few years. Polestars, however, are made in China until the Polestar 3 is introduced that's made in the USA.
Chinese battery factories in joint ventures with US factories will be the first in. And that's meeting resistance. Then at some point some factories can build cars that are actually spec'd in China by BYD or another big homegrown Chinese carmaker. The process may take time, patience, and persistence.
Thanks for the review. Mostly, i am not a fan of 4 door cars in general, but this one is not to bad in design.
Most car designers seem to have died in the windtunnels.
I do miss the free thinking designers of the 40th thru to the 70th.
After that periode cars designers are dominated by managers and fuel efficiency numbers.
Affordable cars are build for the boring masses. the boring masses demand boring cars that look like the cars everyone has. So, you get 4 door practical boxes on wheels.
Very true, which is why I really liked the thought that went into this one. Certainly looks nothing like a smart or an EX30 inside or out so they've done great in terms of having their own look. It's sad when money gets in the way of good design.
For me, there has to be a camper version of a car or van. It has to be comfortable, spacious and have all the right equipment for spending a weekend away!!
We do need more estate versions of electric cars.
This model is coming to singapore this year, together with another MPV model called 009 i think. Finally another chinese EV brand after BYD, MG and ora good cat. Wonder when Nio or xpeng or any other chinese EV brands will arrive?
Yeah, great brand Zeekr, good to have them in your country. Sure your choices will continue to grow in the years ahead. Interesting that they're going right hand drive though. Surely that unlocks the UK for them too.
@@InsideChinaAuto u are right! It did.... Just got to know that this year smart #1, GAC Aion and Neta are also coming to Singapore
Another great review I really love car this looks exactly like i want, about the last I'm in Australia 🦘.
Hopefully they will come but who knows.
BTW. Been what watching some Chinese driving videos I saw a lot of speed cameras , so you're there what's it really like, and are the penalties high and enforced strongly, also saw a lot of 30 and 40 km zones to , that's pretty slow. Let me know.
Regards John
Hey John. Thanks for watching. About Zeekr, I do hope they get to Oz too. If they get to the UK at some point, I can't see why not Oz too.
As for the cameras, they're nearly all not speed cameras. They're mostly monitoring cameras, checking plates, so if you do bad and there's a plate they can track, they can see where you went, and also monitoring for things like going straight on in a left turn lane, things like that. Speed cameras are not that prominent, and as in many countries some provinces have more than others, like Zhejiang for example. I don't think they're so strictly policed to be honest judging by how some people drive through them, and finest are not huge unless you really take the p!ss. More than 50% over is a lifetime ban I heard someone say but I'm not 100% certain. 30 and 40 is really only for small urban roads where honestly there are a LOT of road users, people and bikes and so on, so they make sense, but mostly in cities you'll find 50 or 60, sometimes 80 depending on the road so it's not bad. I make this part of my livelihood from driving so I don't push it and I've cooled off in later life too.
Hi,Thank you for such a detailed response that's really interesting I have been watching lots of UA-cam on China over the last week and I am quite amazed at diversity and culture, infrastructure, their food and so on , what i have noticed is it appears to be very clean,no graphiti, unlike Melbourne where I live .
Would love to visit one day it's truly a leading country.
Regards John
@@johnharris4600 Well worth a visit John. If you do come, give yourself plenty of time too. China is a lot like the States in that the landscape varies hugely from one part to another, as does the culture and food. It's a neverending discovery, that's one of the things I like about it. Far from perfect, nowhere is, but if you like wonderful food, stunning landscapes, variety of cars, super infrastructure, etc, it will surely amaze you. And you're right, graffiti is almost non-existent in China. It can be found if you look hard enough, but people generally have better stuff to do.
So True 😂
Looking forward to your next review.
EV Heaven over there, Lucky you 😊
Hope it will come to Canada one day
Hope so for you too.
I still think GMs charge port is bigger. Check out Blazer EV or the Cadillac Lyriq 😅. Atleast the Zeekr seems and sounds confidence inspiring, like it may hold up for the life of the vehicle.
Should do. Geely Group stuff tends to be very well made.
I'm confused if Zeekr is doing ADAS with Mobileye or Nvidia
All Geely brands confuse me. This one keeps it very basic though, no proper fancy stuff on this.
after seeing the Zeekr 007 I wish they’d still keep borrowing design from lynk and co
Haha. I'll wait to see the 007 in person but do far I think it's decent.
@@InsideChinaAutoit does look beautiful but it just look like a generic sedan
@cocoaiscool2709 Not sure how they'd make it look any different. I did see an AVATR 12 today though and that looks even better in person than in pictures. Stunning.
Unfortunately we in Australia won’t be getting Zeekr X…..any Zeekr at all actually. We instead will be getting the inferior Volvo EX 30.
I hope that changes at some point. I do think this is overall a much nicer car than the EX30.
Same in Canada. Inferior and pricer 😢
@@InsideChinaAuto It has!!:)
Zeeker now on sale in Australia
Great video. Great car. Want one
Thank you. The car is the real star here.
I always think how reliable these Chinese cars are? Where's Electric motor come from?
This car and some other Chinese car looks fantastic, but feature of electric cars unknown because battery is very expensive part I like the Idea of battery swapping with nio.
With NIO you never have to own the battery, and if you need a bigger one, you can swap it in and out. It's a pretty good use case. The motors likely come from China, like most things, and they're pretty good at them.
I think positive
Thanks 😊
Great design, beautiful car, awesome and comfortable interior.... But wait until 15K-20K miles. Or, even kilometers. That's when people start getting into the problems with Zeekr.
What kind of problems?
Will keep an eye out for that.
@@benjaminsmith2287 Drive bearing is pretty weak. Has to be replaced too often. One Zeekr owner was replacing the oil on the reduction gears in the front and rear, and after 15000 km he did find the liquid all black with a lot of metal shavings in it. Zeekr is not ready, yet for low temps. One should be very careful with the car wash as the water gets into the charging port, and you can get all kind of errors.
Would be nice to see all the other paint colors. Maybe an idea for your future videos. Cheers 🎨
Not always easy as they don't have them all in store, but I could try to show images maybe.
Not sure if this has been mentioned yet. You kept making reference to the Smart #1 to this car but I think you meant Smart #3? The Sister/Cousin vehicle to this Zeekr X and EX30 is the Smart #3, not the Smart #1.
Not true. Both the smart #1 and #3 are sisters of this car. Both sit on the SEA 2 platform, but the #3 is slightly longer than the #1 to make for the coupe roofline.
it does have 100 mm longer wheelbase than the volvo, nicer space inside, but with the EU prices being higher than the Volvo i dont think they will sell a lot of them.
What are the EU prices? I haven't seen them announced yet.
Is the Volvo inferior to the Zeekr? I very much doubt it!! In fact, I think the Volvo is one of the best electric vehicles available. It’s got so many plaudits that I might have one in the future.
I can't speak to the Volvos chassis tuning, but overall I find this to be a much more considered car. The Volvo isn't innovative enough for me and the focus on sustainable materials means it doesn't feel quite as luxurious inside. This is more considered for space and how people, particularly how Chinese customers, like to use their car. This feels special, where the Volvo feels 'meh, it's alright, nice enough'.
@@InsideChinaAuto I think the Volvo feels more "special" due to its more Volvo approach of Scandinavian design, sustainable materials and such. And when I say Scandi design it's not only styling but design choices like the materials and life cycle of the whole car. And using a sound bar and the way the center armrest hides its cupholders seems fairly innovative to me. That's where the Volvo innovates. The Zeekr car tends to have more in common with expected 'premium" content whereas the Volvo is more forward looking in its much more understated approach. Yes, Zeekr may be a better approach for maybe some in the Chinese market, and that's why I think Volvo is not necessarily that appealing to the Chinese market as a marque. Volvo's main market remains the Euro market.
@benjaminsmith2287 I suppose the best part is that three cars on the same platform have very different characters and selling points, which in the end is best for the customer. They're not simply copy paste with very few differences like the C1/Aygo/107 things.
Nice car, but I feel BYD’s seagull is better value!
Seagull is much smaller and way less techy and luxurious, though neither of those things are reasons not to buy one. I bloody love the Seagull.
中国目前是全世界车评人的天堂，新车太多了🎉🎉🎉
Tell me about it. It's impossible to keep up
Now this would finally be the EV that i would buy. I would give up my luxurious Jaguar XJl which at 41 thousand dollars is paid off. Range is 570 miles. I would buy the Zeekr X at 50 thousand dollars and has a range of over 600 miles. But there's one thing, it's not available in the United States of America. So I'll keep my jaguar XJl. But they can keep all that computer crap which does absolutely nothing but removes the joy of driving...
Don't worry. You can get the 5-seat version and avoid all the bits you don't want.
@@InsideChinaAuto Oh that's great. There's only one thing, can i fully charge from absolute 0 to 100 percent in 3 to 5 minutes, the same amount of time it takes me to fully fuel a regular car? Not 20 minutes or 20 hours. But still dosent matter, not available in the United States of America..
@carlsmith5545 Not quite 3-5 minutes, but what's your car doing while you're at the office? Out having a coffee on its own? Chatting up Lambrettas down at the beach? Paragliding through the mountains? Or is it sat doing nothing like other cars?
@@InsideChinaAuto I drive my car every day. So what, and? What are you doing? It doesn't matter but, what does mater to me is, I would love to buy an EV. EVs are great! Add the ability to fully charge from absolute 0 to 100 percent in, "yes!" 3 to 5 minutes, not 20 minutes or 20 hours, the same amount of time it takes me to fully fuel a regular car and also add 500 miles of range without paying close to a hundred grand, then the EV will become even greater. Now can you actually disagree with that? You mean to tell me you wouldn't buy it? I would!! Yes, i would give up my car payment free life, i would pay a little more that the 41 thousand dollars i paid, i would give up the additional 70 miles of range and settle for the even 500 miles and take the EV....all day! Especially if it's a large full size luxurious car. Come out with a better EV with these fine qualities and improvements, now we're talkin!! Im all in. I'll go to the bank tomorrow morning. But the truth is, with no fault to you or to me, that kind of EV doesn't exsist. The good people at Tesla in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, USA told me quote, "Have patience because that day is coming." So im going to do just that. Im going to have patience and waite for the next generation EV with the hopes that these fine qualities and improvements have been applied. We will see.......
@@carlsmith5545 It's true, that day is coming, and if you do battery swap with NIO, that day could even be today.
Twice the price in Europe. No pink/burgundy color.
The Smart #3 is the same but maybe even better. Perhaps not as luxurious (but not by far), I wasn't able to test the Zeekr X it since it's not available in France yet.
That's a shame. They should bring the full selection to Europe.
Keeps locking up on replay
Seems you have a UA-cam issue. Nobody else has reported it.
I think its good, but i think the suspension and the software will be much more inferior than tesla.
Tesla is much tighter than this on suspension, that's for sure, this is more about comfort. I'd probably trust Tesla on the software too just now.
The first thing against this car is the interior colour schemes but then we go onto all the ridiculous features that no everyday motorist want like the sliding screen and fold back passenger seat. Zeekr would do better concentrating what the average owner wants and not what he could have.
This kind of tech goes down a storm in China where people like to spend more time in their car enjoying entertainment. They also don't much like having pets on their seats, hence the folding seats in the back. In the 5-seat version you don't get any of that fancy stuff anyway so you can just go with that one.
@@InsideChinaAuto Fair point. It's designed for its "home market." For the Euro market, the center screen does not slide from what I know. And the lux options are options. Zeekr is trying to give bang for the buck as a young brand so it makes sense to sort of load them up and also there's so much competition in China so tech may be used to distinguish cars more than in other markets.

I suppose you're aware that leather makes up only 3% of the value of the cow and is a by-product, of which 50% gets burned every year for excess. I understand the concern and the choice, but leather is not nearly half the issue. Nobody rears cattle for leather alone.
Many cars are still, especially luxury cars.

Hi Mark
Hi Andy. How'd you like it?
Nice video and a good looking car. The other part of me wanna mockingly say: "oh, face recognition, finger ptint readers etc.. Exactly what i'd been dreaming of. Is the next model wanna suck my blood or do i need to have a brain chip installed in order to access it?" 🤔 Call it progress or if someone wants call me names, feel free, but lets realize it's gone toooooo far and that's not the end of it 👎
Haha, I doubt they'll ever come for your blood, that would be over the line. I know a lot won't want facial recognition either, even though they use it to unlock their phone and they're not worried about Samsung or Apple gathering your data. In China at least, tech is popular, and people are lazy, they don't want keys and wallets, they have QR codes for that, and this is just an extension. We're all on camera somewhere.
@@InsideChinaAuto you're right. Laziness, "convenience", pre-programming, mind control/propaganda/marketing has brought us where we are now.. The saddesst part is that's not the end. Some say it's just the beginning. Let's wait and see where it leads to and how much more people find "not too much".
@@InsideChinaAuto also true the blood sucking car would be over the line. It's totally okay though the greed obsessed bandits in suits sucking our blood through stealing and trading our personal data etc.. plus probably much more we don't even dare to guess yet
@@InsideChinaAuto But is it laziness to prefer not bringing keys and wallets, which both add weight and take up physical space? I think we're looking at smaller form factors and finding digital solutions, something that's been ongoing everywhere. Most hotel keys are now cards, no longer physical keys.
I think self-opening doors are gimmicky, however. Unless you have physical issues, I'm not sure they're luxury vs. gadgetry. In fact, that's the main argument. What is luxury/ enhanced functionality and what is gadgetry/gimmicky? Sometimes that's a personal definition.
Hello, happy new year! 🪐🚀🎉
Even people without brains will know this technology.
Many people think that replacing the battery is useless. This is wrong. Why is this so?
Here are the highlights of the battery swap station.
1. If the battery is aging, you can replace it with a new one.
2. People living in apartments have no place to charge their batteries
3. In winter, when you don’t want to get out of the car, your hands will get dirty, just like the rainy season🌧
4. Suitable for beauties who drive electric cars, whose charging cables are too heavy, or who get their hands and feet dirty.
5. People who drive long distances can choose to replace or upgrade the battery.
6. People who are in a hurry don’t have time to wait for charging
7. The benefits of battery swapping technology are so numerous that many companies are considering partnering with NIO.
