This year you will get a super long range version.
People put it on Xinjiang’s country road/urban road and drive it until battery dies. On average over 65miles per hour.
That’s 890km on a single charge.
Less power, no more four wheel drive.
But probably the longest real life range in the market.
the only thing that matters at this point
Lucid air might compete at range, but certainly not in price.
@@YalokIy honestly love that car.
They made a car Geely should have made after they took over Lotus.
Yup, the new CATL battery will be great. This car is the first one out to get it
@@Eliano55 no, it really depends on where you live. i live in the country side in germany, 1 hour from Frankfurt. My WLTP 350km e-C4 does very well. Next HPC is 20mins from my home.
Love the interior, looks classic and comfy. The backseat is amazing! Thanks Thomas!
The indicators would drive me nuts 😃
Agree. For this alone i would probably not buy this car. They really need to change it!
Looks good overall, really like the different color front and rear seats, makes the interior livelier.
Im in the UK so this is one of the first times Ive heard of Zeekr. But I have to say, it is a gorgeous design. The proportions are beautiful and a panamera front and RS6 rear are two vehicles to mimic if you plan to mimic. Very well done.
Funny this is the cheapest but somehow looks the best as well.
Huh? It's ugly 🤦♂️
Cause tesla sucks ass
Huh? Audi E-tron GT…
Are you Chinese?
It's a stunner. Like Nio cars, China is making strides
I think it's one of the best offer at this price point. Just wow Geely 🤩
As soon as they start tackling the lack of sales and service network, they'll really become a serious contender to our local manufacturers. Really a nice car.
Why can't they use the Volvo network?
They want to be separate they say
They won't do jack sh... Nobody wants to support communist products. BYD supposed to be a major player in Europe by now. Nobody buys them.
Hi. I am new to cars industry, can you guys explain more further about cars network, what do you means by car’s network.? What does it involve in.?
Thanks so much.!
@@temper44 brand image is total different
They need to sort out the indicator sound, but other than that, really impressive. The front end is giving me Fiat Coupe 20v vibes :)
that is familiar sound from some older volvo like v40 or similar.
Same
Yeah 💯 agree my modern volvo makes a nice click premium sound this would suit it better
Having driven lynk co 01 (an suv hybrid baby brother of this car) for a year and having tried A6, E class and 5 series. This car is much better quality and value for many than German competitors. I hope it puts enough pressure on the market that others start offering similar price to quality ratio cars
Would be interesting to see what the long-term reliability is like. Know many people who are comfortable with their ten and fifteen-year-old BMWs.
Also curious! But the bar is not set very high considering German automakers haven't had a stellar reputation in terms of reliability in recent years.
@@bw1376 really? here nobody dares to keep neither more than 5 years. the repairs are killing. So we never trust "german" quality here.
@@spiketwo666 I've never had problems with older BMWs. Newer German cars aren't as reliable.
Chinese EVs are notorious for quickly falling apart, so good luck getting this one repaired.
A lovely looking car. I hope they bring it out in RHD at that price point, at £52k it would be a serious competitor
Still takes time for Zeekr EVs to mature, but gotta say they're on the right track. Luv your car reviews as always.
Zeekr sells very well in China, with sales of tens of thousands every month.
Thanks 🙏
Doesn't need that much mature because Zeekr also owned by Geely
Thanks! It's a great car and an amazing review!
thanks keep tuning in !
Great to include a little industry context in the review.
👏
Great looking car. Nice to see more quality EV's. Colour suits the car so well.
that indicator sound though :)
Great review Thomas as always! Really impressed with the new EVs backed by Chinese companies - Link, Nio, BYD..!
Great review!! One thing to point out, my 001 informative system has been upgraded to higher version, I think what you having now is much older version. Their system is getting better!
Hi, we’re interested in purchasing this car. Could you elaborate on how they’ve improved the infotainment?
@@rs1019 They are talking about a Chinese market version and therefore most likely it is not relevant to European cars. As Thomas mentioned due to regulation/language differences the infotainment system is very different between the export version of the 001 compared to domestic Chinese version.
Story in China was that they released the 001 and early customers were highly critical of the original infotainment the car launched with. It was both a software and hardware issue, as Zeekr promised to fit the car with the advanced Qualcomm 8155 but used a cheaper chip instead. So to fix it, not only did Geely rush out an updated infotainment software system, it also upgraded the physical chip in every customer car to 8155, for free. Afterwards the upgraded infotainment got very good reviews and the 001 started selling much better in the Chinese market.
Indeed as I said the Chinese infotainment is obviously way better than the European one
Easy to see why Europe is worried. This car is very impressive!
Thanks for the review! Totally agree on screen control while moving: as it is in Model 3 - it's totally uncomfortable to use while driving. Stange that Tesla and others didn't created screen mode for driving, when primary functions comes over everything else on screen.
great idea indeed!
I don't have those issues.
Honda eN: 1 has a better interface.
You're still one of the best reviewers of vehicles, you use great framing, are careful to get good lighting and don't try to bury your accent.
It's always a pleasure to watch your videos.
I was actually looking at importing one of these to the UK until you said the base is in Sweden and I loved there for quite a long time so perhaps I should just visit some old friends and drive home 😂
I believe you can actually also click those unmarked steering wheel knobs as alternative for finger scrolling for temperature change etc.
I have shown that in the review
I actually really enjoy the exterior styling
A big tablet slapped in the middle of the dashboard. Some styling...
@@nevarran He said EXTERIOR styling.
They did something clever: do the design in Sweden and The Netherlands so you have a design that appeals to the European taste.
@@rw80 I love European cars but unfortunately I’m from the USA 🇺🇸
@@nevarran way better than tesla for sure
An excellent and detailed review! I've never heard of Zeekr yet and a great looking car for 60,000 to 68,000 Euro. Real door handles inside snd out😊.
Thanks and greatings from Santa Barbara California.
cheers m8 !
The platform will be rebadged into volvo (EX-30 and EX-90) to sell in the US next year, however uncle sam is going to make sure it is not cheaper than american alternative after tariffs though
Search, Ji Krypton 001 FR can brighten your eyes
this car price 38000💲 in China
A nice review. I like your show and the professionalism you build into this.
Highly appreciated! Please recommend our channel 😎
Cool seeing a UA-camr driving around in my neighborhood 👍
Looks like an awesome car!
Design wise this car has very good proportions and looks quite elegant . It is not easy without being too ostentatious or weird looking for new brands to be original and not being compared or accused for 'borrowing' something from well established car brands on the market. I'd say bravo Zeekr.
And as always really enjoyed presentation by Thomas.
cheers m8 !
I see a lot of "borrowing" there but ok.
Bravo, Thomas. Interesting car indeed.
Great camera work 👏🏻👏🏻
How was Sweden?
I too prefer to drive my car vs have it drive me (crazy!).
cheers m8 !
Oh always beautiful for sure !
Your point about the infotainment system is true and trying to deal with different sets of laws around the world must make it difficult for all vehicle manufacturers. The one thing I think we can be sure about though is that Chinese manufacturers will learn what works well in different regions quickly and certainly have the resources to create what customers really like. The only question is whether they wish to make changes to achieve this?
I think this is an important lesson for all vehicle manufacturers to learn. Promising updates to fix things that users find distracting, difficult or just irritating and then not producing them will make customers look elsewhere when they change their vehicle.
wow, what an excellent alternative to the other ev's out there, looks awesome and the interior lovely too.
hope this works out and here to stay
Main issue. Is that it is VERY inefficient for this type of car. No wonder they needed 100 kWh battery....
i firstly saw this car in China back at the end of 2021. and the size of the car really surprised me. they spent a year and half to polish the car to become as mature as today ( in chinese market at least :D).
It"s selling very well in Asia, wish it success in Europe ,too
How wouldn't it, it is superb at all levels.
@@StephanBuchinat least they have no service network sofar ... and the german customers are very conservative, buying the same Brand the entire live.
Nio has also a good product and sells extremly bad in Germany.
Don't think they will have much sucees against the ID7 as Company car.
@@josefv8708 No doubt the customer decides and this is our only hope.
How cool to see you test driven the car in Gothenburg, I realised it only after paying attention to the road hahaha.
A truly informative car review as always, and what a nice car too
- I hope you had a pleasant trip, from Lindholmen, Säve, Kungälv, Ytterby, Kärna, Tjuvkil to Marstrand ⛅
Thanks 🙏 lovely area!
@@autogefuehl 👍
I have managed to have a very close up look with the Lotus Eletre and I see many design features from that to this. Just from my quick perspective they include the seat profiles, the inside door handles, where the shape and mechanism are straight from a Lotus Emira, the soft non animal furnishings and the outer door handles. and the reclining seats in the rear. Also the entire shape is similar. Geely are a huge company whose assets include Polestar, Volvo, Lotus, Smart, LEVC (London Taxi), Geely Auto, Geometry, Proton, Lync, and of course Zeekr. Although based in the UK I am a commercial auto photographer who travels to the far east for the purposes of final rendered images and I am well versed with some of these concept vehicles from CGI stage to physical result, also incorporating CGI elements into the final brochure images.
My first impression as well after sitting in the Eletre at the fully charged show. The centre console, cup holders etc all look the same.
Very interesting job, is there any chance to work with you?
This car came out 2 years before the Lotus Electre did. So it's the Lotus Electre took elements from the Zeekr team not the other way around
@@samibeemer7619 I don't have any positions at present but could would only ever take on people with a commercial/professional background in high end studio/location photography.
@@Fldllse you are probably correct - we had the running platforms (cutaways) as well as 2 concept vehicles - I have not photographed the Zeekr but recognised the elements from that vehicle from the Eletre
Completely agree. Hate voice commands. Nice car from a new company. Great early review. Thanks.
Cheers m8!
Really like the interior - one of my favourites from an upcoming EV. My feeling is that (here in the UK at least), people are less brand loyal when it comes to purchasing an EV and judge more just on looks/tech/value etc. On that basis, I can't see why this won't do very well.
18,2kWh/100km wltp
Do they have a dealership agreement in the UK?
cannot be brand loyal as those ICE brands are like Kodak and Nokia. Fading away soon
@@spiketwo666 What ICE brands?
I really like the look of these. It’s an impressive package for the price. Still don’t know for sure if/when it’s coming to the UK.
The new version of this car has been launched in China.I think Zeeker will not keep you waiting for too long.Chinese car companies need the European market.
It's coming. Don't know when but it will happen.
Wow. China is coming thick and fast with the EVs, and some of them are awfully compelling
Literally what the Chinese are good at, why do you think everything is made there 😂
@@VaunShizbecause they don’t get paid well
Coming thick and fast 🤨🤨🤨🤨🧐🧐 (I’m sorry I had to) 😭
@@MaticTheProto that is only part 1 of the reasons.... Also some Ethical concerns.
@@itsweetened LOL wow didn't even realize :)
You gave a great explanation about this car. A lot of people in comments keep calling Volvo, Polestar and in recent reviews of the Lotus Eletre "Chinese" simply because Geely owns these brands. But these are not Chinese designed and engineered cars. They are Swedish or English designed and engineered, in terms of where the headquarters are, and are quite European in feel and content. Zeekr is designed in Sweden and some of the interior bits were designed for the Chinese market. Now, there may be some platform sharing, although Volvo makes their own platforms for their large cars, and Lotus has heavily modified the platform, but even the platform was chiefly designed by a Swedish engineer (Kent Bovillan) for Geely. He now works for Geely. So, these are European bred cars in feel and content, only the financing is Chinese and perhaps some of the drivetrain and electronics and batteries. And that's not to put down Chinese cars because I think they're capable of making fine cars. But this is to set the record straight of all the nonsense I read about how these Euro brands are Chinese.
I like this car but I'd rather get the similar Polestar 4 because it's a version of this car and I like Polestar's interior better. But that's just a matter of taste. They won't be tuned the same so they'll drive differently but they're similar in many ways. And, as you said, the software is different on Volvo and Polestar. The Lotus is more money and that looks like a fine car as well. So, Geely brands are good brands, engineered and designed in Europe and taking advantage of economy of scale. Win win IMO.
Thanks for the review, it was excellent as always.
thanks keep tuning in !
You're 100% correct, but the OEM's are the ones spreading the FUD because the Chinese owned vehicles are significantly undercutting the Germans in price while offering similar or better luxury features and performance. I hear that the German OEMs are calling for the government to charge higher import taxes for Chinese vehicles because they claim that they will flood the German market with cheap vehicles and many jobs will be lost as a result.
I'm from Sweden and I understand what you are saying and yes Geely use a lot of people from European countries to design their cars but they are influenced more and more from China, however you look at it. I saw a report on the new Volvo EX30 that you want to say is a Swedish brand. That it's built 100% in China. They only made the design with Swedish people and the rest is Chinese. That doesn't make the product Swedish in my mind. Same with Zeekr. Before this car was released, there haven't been one single news/information shared in Sweden about Zeekr being a "Swedish" company, only because they have a office in Sweden and some Swedish people who work there. That doesn't make it a Swedish brand, that's why many reviews and news write about the Chinese brands that are coming to Europe. Volvo was Swedish, but for every model they produce and move out production and more and more of the original company to China, it's slowly losing it's "Swedish" brand, doesn't mather how much they still say it is Swedish, it's only for markering purpose. But that is only my opinion but I know many more who thinks the same. But otherwise it looks like a good car with good pricing, but it's not Swedish.
@@jakssdsfs I think the correct term for this may be "European designed, assembled in China".
@@jakssdsfs In fact, Volvo is quite independent within the Geely Group, and the acquisition of Volvo agreed to many conditions back then. Zeekr is because Geely cannot safely intervene in Volvo's products. Geely Group does not believe that the performance and price of the EX30 are highly competitive, especially in the Chinese market, so it has separated Lynk Co's tram and named it Zeekr.
Looks FAB. Great review. Thanks
This does look nice inside and out. I managed to post a quick short of the Lotus Eletre on my YT page, but only from outside looking into a closed showroom, would be good to see how that compares and how they’ve kept the weight down.
Did anyone else notice the “soft close” to the window of the rear door? Pretty cool!
Every frameless car door does same window needs to come down before door can open and other way when closing.
Yeah I’m used to seeing them go down a bit and then up when closing the door (having owned a few r56 mini’s) but this appeared to go inward (almost like a pressurised door).
really excited for a volvo wagon, but this might be the next best thing
Volvo should have made an EV wagon ages ago. What is taking them so long....
@@CyAn-S It's not where the money is and they're a small company. They'll make one but if most of their sales are in SUVs, especially in North America, what's the point of prioritizing a wagon?
@@CyAn-S don't worry, just give them some times to catch up. this year volvo will release first EV MPV with same platform of this 001, new EV sedan and wagon should also on the way~~ (some Chinese insider said might be next year)
@@T9Express i hope that sedan will be more efficient than this Zeekr. Because it is pretty bad
Both Volvo and Polestar and many others including Zeekr are owned by Geely a Chinese EV specialist.
I must say first. Fun to see that you came and did a testdrive in my hometown göteborg. And now about the car. I think i wait and see how its gonna work to drive and so for some years before i buy one. It looks good though.
Like your videos
I am so not surprised by the German inspirations of the Zeekr 001, since many German engineers went to China 😂
But jokes aside: the Zeekr 001 looks like a very promising "small station wagon" with a very sleek design and a very large battery. It is so refreshing in the sea of unending EV SUVs to see such a car come out in the market. Hope they fix the Adaptive Cruise Control for the European market, then this car is going to be a great deal.
Thank you for covering this car as well, keep up the good work!
It's a beast though. 4,970 mm long and 1,990 mm wide.
Yeah, that's 20 cm longer than my old estate car and even fatter than it's "subcompact electric SUV" replacement. Width is a big issue in UK cities -at least the one I live in
Thanks keep following!
Adaptive Cruise Control part would be aviliable at least one years later till Approval issued.
@@sucarl4270 ONE YEAR LATER? :O
Bruuuuuuuh! That's longer than completing the infotainment system of the ID3/ID4 o.O
The feedback from users for Z.001 since the last 2 years was the software isn't perfect with some bugs.. but the rest of the specs, design and features is top notch ... a sporty EV like the Mach-E.
This is the one ive been keeping an eye on, really like this car and so hope it lives up to the hype, not getting it in the UK until 25/26 but might be the one to convince me to go electric
Oh boy, that’s the bimmer, Merc and Audi killer!! Luv it looks and performance
Very nice and well proportioned car. Inside also great! Very exciting when these new contenders show the European brands how it’s done.
25:40 My issues exactly with this reinstated trend to move every function to a tablet. It is too distracting even when the functions are permanent on the screen. As a driver, you need fast access to certain functions and they have to always react in the same way. Also, make the tablet retractable and keep a clean aesthetic: most of the time, you know where to go. You are not going to need navigation software on a daily basis. Put some knobs there for radio, volume, temperature and a mini screen for information. Props to Zeekr though for keeping the instrument panel and for its design.
I used to have Tesla Model 3 and two weeks ago i bought Zeekr 001 Sport and i am happy :) This car is awesome!
Looks nice... I'd buy one when a few UX features are solved. The blinker sounded annoying and loud for some reason, would bug me. Any (realistic) plans to bring it to the US?
Thomas is simply one of the best car presenters in the World. Period.
Thanks so much my friend!
I liked the attention to details caught on video.
🙏🙏
I love the interior , Mercedes and bmw should really take lessons from zeekr , they just made e-class and 5 series really ugly like they were going for cyberpunk but gone mad 😂😂😂
or... every brand should try and make their own designs and not "take lessons". It is better that there is competition and that brands try to make their own design styles. If a Merc of BMW looked just like this Zeekr, then what is the point in anything. People like different things.
@@CyAn-S Feels like every Chinese electric car has the same basic interior design - wide centre console, minimal physical switches, narrow dash display and larger center display. This one looks very similar to the likes of BYD and Xpeng interiors
Mercedes interior is a lot nicer than this. SMH LOL
Does the Chinese pay you or something?
@@VaunShizdoes the Chinese offend you in any way? All your comments pointing to yes
Thanks for the review
great looking car, cant wait to test this out
What a great looking car, as an Audi owner for most of my adult life I am thinking they had better get their act together as the value proposition is starting to look poor. I may well consider this if it gets to the UK as I am getting a bit fed up of waiting for the A6 Etron
Geekr 001 in China it costs 31000 pounds , but because of anti dumping , they have to sell way more expensive ,
Nice review always :) SO... there is no "auto pilot" adaptive cruise type feature? did I miss that
ua-cam.com/video/_KnRO2Eq3UY/v-deo.html
Not yet adapted in Euro market yet I suppose
Thanks 🙏
Not yet available in European version, coming up
@@autogefuehl ok understood. Thx!
really love the look, the link&co sedan looked really good, shame it never got release in the EU
Thanks for the review. It was really interesting to compare a European version to the Chinese one that we have a lot nowadays here in Russia. Nice change that they’ve made is a 22 kWt charging port compared to Chinese standard GBT 7 kWt. Also you haven’t mentioned or maybe I’ve missed that the panoramic roof can change its transparency as an option. And also the doors can open automatically and close by pressing the brake pedal.
At the end - definitely a very good car with an fantastic price for money value.
thanks for following !
It is possible because the other brands are unashamedly overcharging people for electric cars.
This is a winner 🏆
And the great price.
Love having air suspension option at this price point.
Austria e-tron has air suspension starting at 60k
it’s a glimpse into the future of electric mobility-a harmonious fusion of style, performance, and environmental responsibility.
Servus Thomas,
Tolles kaufberatung von dir, gefällt mir sehr gut!!!!
Liebe Grüße aus Italien
Danke für das Lob!
Another great review as usual Thomas!
I think this is a very good looking EV with impressive build quality and features, especially for the money. I appreciate your explanation of the Zeekr brand, this is very helpful to know.
It's good to see a number of EV manufacturers now producing saloon/sedan models rather than yet another huge SUV. I believe there is still a great deal of interest in this model type around the world, not just in Europe. The build quality looks to be on a par with the likes of Lexus and if that is the case it may do very well indeed. I'm not sure if Zeekr 001 is going to be coming to the UK but really hope it does.
Thanks great to have you here!
Way better than any korean or french car!
great exterior and amazing interior !
"I don't like to talk to my car". Well said, Thomas. Nor do I!
👏👏
Fantastic review 🏆 This styling massively reminds me of a Porsche Cayenne for sure 😮
Thanks 🙏
The car seems decent, but what about manufacturer support, reliability, assistance etc etc
I don't think euro brands will give you 40000 dollars worth of after sales service
@@fatdoi003 you definitely got a point, i despise european EVs effort. With all the capability they have they're truly digging their own grave at the moment.
@WoTjolly in my country, when Tesla first came, their pricings were rediculous.... now they have adjusted to more acceptable level with more competitions... VW here is shrinking like a sun dried tomato.... their once invincible Golf now is nowhere to be seen
Zeekr is sister brand of Volvo. Geely may arrange support from them.
@byhyew maybe, but it's all a big IF. And with all these chinese "pop up brands" one should be very careful on buying one of those, because the chinese EV market is saturating and not every brand will survive
great review thanks!
hehe cool, you almost did a Moonwalk at 1:46 - nice car!
Big style for the money ! No doubt the demand will far outweigh the availability.
Doubt it , cars like this pop out all the time and you will never see one in the wild
The only thing big will be the depreciation.
The usability of the large LCD display appears to be poor. As Thomas pointed out some LCD based tasks require to much concentration to complete safely when driving. It is surprising that these sorts of user interface design deficiencies exist at this stage of the vehicle’s development. Applying usability design methodology would no doubt improve the driver’s satisfaction with LCDs operation. I suspect that this hasn’t been done.
To be clear “usability” is not a late stage add-on. Factors such as cognitive load, task completion time and interface navigation can be tested and improved if needed. The earlier this done in the design process, the more likely usability flaws can be identified. Driver preferences can also to tested as part of the overall interface design. Thanks Thomas for a thoughtful review of this very appealing EV.
Highly appreciated!
Awesome looker. Nice to see that there are still some great automotive stylists out there. Are you listening BMW?
Excellent review. Fun to watch too. Could use some some information on screen when telling about numbers.
thanks! we do that for example for the length
Many cars compete at that given length. When comparing similar length cars, interior space and luggage room become a critical factor, at least to me. Call it a shooting brake, but how far does it fall behind the Lucid Air 100% sedan? If the Air were designed by the same people to compete at a lower price point, I bet the packaging would have been just as good. No 670 hp motors, but 250 hp motors. Plenty strong and much cheaper to produce, carrying on to converters, wiring, cooling cell type opportunities to save. Low price is tempting, but you won't get the Porsche ownership experience, of course. At the budget, it looks nice for sure. The VW ID.7 which seems very average to me, won't be cheap.
539L cargo space for a car that side is more like a Panamera than like at Mercedes E-Class Estate, BMW 5 touring, VW Passat (shorter car), etc. Looks nice, though.
VW ID3 seems good enough in Europe, but which prize in China is less than 20K Euros currently, so you can image what a competitive Chinese Car selling market.
@@sucarl4270 ID3 is the EV Golf, but it's not driven by people on the budget of a basic Golf, I think. And of course, it's an EV do you can't get an ID3 Kombi. EV drivers can't get utility unless they pay double only for 2 and 3 car families.
As an owner of the Zeeker 001 in China, I have driven this car for 12,000km and I must say that I am thoroughly impressed. Having previously owned Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi cars, I can confidently say that the Zeeker 001 is just as good, if not better. While there have been some software-related issues, I find it hard to fault this car in any other aspect. The spacious interior, sturdy chassis, luxurious interior, and affordable price make it an excellent choice for anyone looking for a great car.
Thanks for the feedback!
China is an authoritarian regime. Don't promote this crap.

@@Adlata Cool story bro. We've heard it all before... China = evil.
@@Adlata低能儿lol
Damn, this looks really nice!
Brilliant review..very informative ...
Great review, I like how these Chinese EV auto still consider chassis , suspension and design to be best done by the Germans/ European engineers who are specialized. And do it best and making affordable
What an incredible experience by Thomas!
thanks my friend !
@@autogefuehl You are very welcome my friend!
I work as a mailman where you are shooting this video in gothenburg. I must have missed you, no way!!!!!😅
Hehe 😎
Great looking car for an EV .
Nice color pretty good range and battery .
Great interior color combo blue beige.
Well ,60 K still isn't cheap ,I think a car manufacturer who can offer an EV at 30 K will capture the whole EV
market .
Then it will be a no contest !
Wow! Great looking car!
Great review (as usual)! I couldn't think of a better EV in the price range. This is what will be coming from China at increasingly speed. It's hard to imagine how does the story doesn't end pretty bad for some mid-range European car manufacturers.
Thanks! Please recommend our channel :-)
this is what we need, european EVs are super expensive, just take skoda for example, almost 70k euro for enyak, and still not full spec
Car looks great, must say the shoulder support looks a bit narrow for me personally though.
Great looking car and seems good VFM to me too.
you tell everything being neutral car is of any country this is the best thing. Great keep it up👍🏼
cheers please recommend !
I like the lighter interiors and the clean console. The only negative is the high floors typical in all EV to accommodate the batteries.
Big screens are great when in use but can be distracting when not needed. Since the screen is so big, I just wish more manufactures would utilize that entire screen real estate for the backup camera view. My only negative is those seats with the integrated head rests. One more thing is that all cubbies and cup holders need to have covers. Otherwise, they collect lint and dust and look like mini trash bins. The cup holders just need that cap that presses down when in use.
Are door closing automatically? Chinese version has the door that closes automatically .
The all new zeekr 001 is ready in China at this moment, wish you can get a chance to try and review it soon in the future. Heard that the new 001 can charge from 10 to 80% within 11.5 minutes.
...Squircle....😂👏👏👏
In the future…. Squircle bs
Thomas, you may want to visit China big cities like Beijing or Shanghai, you will see much more EV cars here, we have new EV cars to the market every 2-3 months
Sounds like a nightmare, just like everything else about that totalitarian technocratic hellhole
Great review thx😀
Thanks 🙏
interior is on another level, looks so good.
The price is in ID7 category.
But look and feel of material in the cabin is far far away ( from vw's awful ID style) VW must be crying
if ID7 can replace passat like ID3 replace golf, ID7 is not better than ZEEKR 001 I can say. when MQB EVO design decided, VW got lost.
