Zeekr 007 Review - If James Bond Drove Chinese, He'd Drive This
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 чер 2024
- James Bond doesn't drive a Chinese car, but if he did, he'd probably drive the Zeekr 007.
Sleek, full of tech, and stealthy quiet, the 007 offers all the qualities Bond might want in a car, at a price that even a budget-deficient MI5 could afford. It'll even outsprint all of his Aston Martins so far.
Fancy a Chinese, Bond?

Thankyou, well done again. Zeekr is coming to Norway late summer I think. Exciting.
Exciting indeed. Hoping they bring this soon. It's ace.
Love the Zeekr 007 !! Hope it would arrive to EUrope ! We need more chinese EV to get down european prices down
Pretty sure it'll come to Europe. Great brand this.
Chinese carmaker employee makes less than $1,000 euro a month. To compete, would you like to live on that life standard?
@@rbal848 Always the same excuse🤣
@@rbal848
Products and services in China are much cheaper than USA or Europe. Don't compare apples to oranges
Only problem is Chinese cars are doubling the prices in Europe , so corporate greed takes over.
Thanks for the excellent review of Zeekr 007 with great camera work. A wonderful design.
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
Is it just me, or this looks like a mini Lucid Air, especially from the back? Which I think is great! :)
Definitely some similarities.
Also looks like VW iD7 from the side profile. Overall though, it looks like it's own car.
@@BremboT Pfft, don't sully this with the name of the ID.7. That car is awful in comparison.
@@InsideChinaAutovery ugly ass car. This is beautiful tho, I only consider the Galaxy e8 and the denza gt to it in the Chinese market
@@BremboT id7 is new zeekr when make cars vw no have glu about EV ok design or quality non of Europe can't beat geely or any company like geely BYD nio li auto there are kings of the world best EV so vw is nothing vs zeekr never catch zeekr is from future technology system that in Europe still don't have or no use so please don't compare vw vs zeekr is joke vw copying zeekr not zeekr the have DNA by china zeekr and BYD never copying others the are strong in the game of design style ok id7 looks like zeekr ok
Subscribed. Nice video. Hope more competitionto drive down car price.
Thank you very much. Certainly in China that's the case already. Ridiculous prices here now.
Amazing video thanks
Glad you liked it.
I want one here in the States 😮🎉
I want one here on my driveway.
Congress will find a Chinese Spyware in the cameras😅.
@@BremboT Congress will find whatever suits their lobbying interests.
GEELY could put a POLESTAR or VOLVO badge on it. Americans don't know they are owned by the same Chinese conglomerate and all conceived in the same design studio in Sweden. Congress is so full of dummies.
Dream on.
It reminds me a Lucid Air, and I LOVE it 😍😍😍😍😍😍
For me, it's perfect. The pinnacle of cars. If it had a SUV body, it would be even more perfect and practical. If/when it comes to Europe, it will be a game changer, and I think that everybody will like the way it looks and I guess, drives 😁😁😁😁😁
Thank you very much for the test, even under the rain ❤❤❤
No problem. It was sunny most of the time I drove it then rained when it came to doing the pieces to camera. No worries, my camera has a little umbrella of its own.
Awesome car. I believe an SUV is not far off.
@@InsideChinaAuto 👏👏👏😉😉 This channel HAS to grow a lot 👍👍
You would love the zeekr 01as welll. And lucid Air is my favorite too!
@@jakilode5608 Reallly nice!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍
Can not wait till Zeekr comes to Australia! Great review thanks!
Won't be long now. This one won't be in the first batch but I'd expect it should be later.
Ah onslaught of Chinese EVs coming to Australia next twelve months, Changan Deepal, Geely Galaxy, GAC Aion, Xpeng n Zeekr
have you got any leftover for your bros in NZ, need these in NZ, too.
@@luofubo You'll almost certainly be getting them too.
Welcome back! Missed your reviews and what a great car to kick off with! Seen some of those in Shanghai and they really look quite different especially with those long thin lights! Not sure how these can be improved upon and yet the sales figures are quite average so far in China. Compared to the SU7 I would take this any day!
Good to be back (Also had the X9 last weekend).
Yeah. It's a mystery why this isn't more popular. Such a good car at a great price point.
Great review as always🙏. The zeekr brand is a wake up call for so many car manufacturers. Looking forward to seeing more of them in Thailand.
Thanks mate, and yes they are. Great cars that should do well if they don't mess things up.
Great review! I´ll tell my friends at Zeekr Design you liked it!
Thank you. I'll tell my wife you liked my video. (Though I made it) 😁
Awesome!
It is, such a stunner.
Awesome work, as usual...
This thing is beautiful, but can't get it out of my head that estate would just be on another level!
Oh it would, and the mock ups by Sugar Design look amazing. Hopefully they make it.
@@InsideChinaAuto yeah, estate-centered Sugar Design!
I see a lot of Lucid Air in the styling, but at a much more affordable price.
Basically that, yes. A LOT more affordable.
As an Chinese, zeekr is the best
I'm a big fan of this brand. They're going places.
Too bad they aren't selling that much.. I love then alongside Xpeng
Yes Zeekr is the future
@@faithosadebe5293 It is a shame. Doesn't make much sense, they're much better than Model 3.
@@InsideChinaAuto It's 💩
Chinese cars have style and class
This really does. Leaves me stirred but not shaken.
Sure, and no limits in terms of experimenting and/or visual/technical upgrades involving much shorter time periods to regular mainstream facelifts!
It helps a lot that they have non-Chinese designers involved as well...
When you have deal geely now the make good cars like taxi 🚖 in china check them quality engineer engine you will shock is amazing we need in Europe but Jew not allowed us I love china and strong company like geely BYD nio li auto I trust them there top of tops in the world no needs proof.
Nice review as usual ! I have not driven the 007 but have sat inside and felt the interior was compromised and felt way cheaper than the 001. I guess this is to control costs so when it comes to EU it can be sold at a reasonable price. Exterior is nice tho
Yeah, less luxurious than the 001, definitely, more plastic on the bottom surfaces, but overall nice. Bit spartan in comparison to the 001 which feels like it has some design with the grab handle on the dash. Not much liking the shift to the Tesla look.
Crazy looking
It's mad, in an awesome way.
Wow super cool
Gorgeous car this.
Looks like a Mercedes EQ beater
Haha. Is there anything that doesn't?
Thank you!
Great car
No problem. It really is.
Give us a 007 Wagon. Great review!
I really hope one is coming.
Man, that thing is absolutely sick. Would love to have one of these on a grey day where my usual Bronco isn't as comfortable to drive in.
It really is. A stunner.
good one, thanks! love geely and zeekr
You're welcome. I like them too.
This car is seriously good but competition is so intense with Xiaomi Su7, IM L6, BYD Seal, Avatr 12, Nio et5, Geelys own E8, this is up there with the best!
What a collection, eh? Some stunning cars in that list. L6 less so, that thing is fugly.
And Luxeed S7. Both are wide and long
Looks like they took some styling cues from the Lucid Air with that trunk lid and some Tesla styling cues with the auto close doors with the Model X and interior styling bits. Looks nice though, I like it.
Bit of everything in there and a lovely product at the end.
I wish these cars would cross the pond to the US 😢
Maybe ask Biden to stop the tariffs or suggest Chinese car makers set up production in the US to help American jobs (just not those at the Big Three because they're going down if these boys get in).
It does have some hints from the Lucid Air.
That rear bootlid especially.
New sub!!! A Chinese sports sedan is in my future. Made in Mexico or US plant by 2028!
Awesome, great to have you. I love when new subs announce themselves. 😊
Nice attention to detail that it is raining in the 360 view of the car on the "dash board" .. I do wonder how comfortable it is on the back seat in a scorching sunny setting..
They do like their attention to detail, but quite a few brands do this with the screen matching the weather.
James Bond Silently laughs from the grave.
Glad I could make him silently giggle.
Thanks for the review. Some excellent design innovation from Geely, especially the display on the front of the car. Chinese designers are striking out on their own path. But Zeekr uses European designers I think? Probably a collaboration between the designers and engineers.
Zeekr uses designers from more than 30 countries so there's a lot in there. I asked Stefan Sielaff myself if there was any truth to the myth that Chinese designers have no originality and he flat out refused it.
Hi Mark been looking forward to your review of this Zeekr 007 , it has been hi on my anticipation list, really is a special car isn't it, can't wait for these to come to Australia.
How much extra for the golden battery? 🔋
Great review, Great Car ,loved the opening location that was beautiful.
Loved your review on that big people mover you just recently done too that was great what a luxurious vehicle that was..
You're a lucky man
Regards John
Hi John
Good to hear from you again. Really is a special car this one, yes. Amazing to look at, really good to drive with a very good ride. Interior is a little bland but hey ho, the other stuff makes up for it. Looked lovely down by a big lake in Kunming.
And yes, the X9 was great too.
I had a look for the price of the Golden battery and couldn't find a definitive answer on their site so I'll reach out and ask them for an answer and get back to you.
I really think Zeekr are going to be a Significant Brand their quality and engineering seems to excel others just that bit more, and I say this because I watched a recent video in America on UA-cam , and they compared the Model Y Dual motor, Xpeng G6, Zeekr X Single motor and and the Avatar 12 and I could tell by his reactions that he liked the Zeekr the Most , Very interesting I thought 🤔💭
@@johnharris4600 I'm a huge fan of their SEA platform. I had the opportunity to drive two SEA cars back to back recently, plus an XPeng G6, a Li, and a BYD on a horrific bit of road where I live. The 007 was outstanding on it, despite no air suspension, vastly showing up the XPeng and BYD.
是的好车，我刚试驾，完美
It is, right?
When did Chinese cars become so attractive?
About 2022.
I think this is one of the nicest looking electric vehicles I've seen, I really like it. No doubt you're sick of hearing it, but I do wish it had some more physical switchgear - but that's basically the way of the world these days. Cheers for the great review! Any idea if Zeekr will head to Australia?
Zeekr heading to Oz later this year my friend. This one not straight away but I'm pretty sure it will at some point.
@@InsideChinaAuto brilliant! Cheers
finally Zeekr has dropped the confusing Lynk&Co front end, which was a branding misstep. thanks for the review!
No worries. Wasn't really a misstep, it's just that they were intended to be Lynk&Co cars as they were conceived before Zeekr was even thought of, and it's a lot of effort to change all that at short notice.
Will 007 come in RHD in the future? Zeekr will do RHD for the X and 009 if I'm not mistaken
I can almost certainly say yes it will. There's been no indication at all yet but I'm certain they will.
It is a very good looking, attractive,, and low profile car.
I think many many people will love this one .
I would also buy one if it comes to HK.
It is. A lovely car and a stunner. Hope they go to HK.
👍👍👍
Nice this thing, eh?
I am Taiwanese so gorgeous car
Hopefully you'll get this in Taiwan at some point.
❤️❤️❤️
Sexy thing eh, Rob?
I really like this, any news on whether this will be coming the UK?
No news yet but I'm pretty sure Zeekr will come and there's no reason not to bring this when they do. They're going to Australia this year so UK can't be far off.
@@InsideChinaAuto Good to see some competition to Tesla on the horizon, looks like a great EV!
@@Osmosis909 Tesla is the one coming from behind these days in China.
With honorable mention to Lucid Air.
Definitely some similarities.
Looks like Lucid Air 😊
The rear especially.
Very impressive Chinese EV. Clearly sharing design cues from Tesla and Lucid. Competition is fierce and Zeekr raises the bar.
Lucid I see, but Tesla? It has a bland dashboard with just a screen, is that it?
@@InsideChinaAuto Except for some buttons, the interior could easily be mistaken as a Tesla. It is Tesla that first placed large touchscreen into cars.
@jhelotes5627 I don't think you can copy something so bland and unimaginative. What do you want everyone else to do with a big touchscreen? Cars like Mercedes were sticking big ugly stand up screens on cars long before Tesla, just not quite as big and not touchscreen in most cases.
@@InsideChinaAuto why argue over an opinion? Tesla leads and others have learned to copy them. Period. Imitation is flattery.
@jhelotes5627 That sounds more like a statement of fact than opinion. Tesla leads in very little these days, hence why they add features like ambient lighting and rear screens, because they can copy as well as the rest of them. They weren't even the first to put touchscreens in a car, that was Buick in 1986. Suppose everyone copies at some point, eh?
Its a nicely styled vehicle but the boot opening is far to small. I suspect that in Europe/UK auto doors will not be allowed.
I believe the auto doors are banned in Europe at least, not sure about the UK. Boot opening is fairly standard for a saloon I think. I should have measured it.
Nice car, but need adjustable back and forward headrest, and want some ffing buttons, maybe when/if my Toyota dies it will become a zeekr, but still they failed to let me try the 001, really planned to buy that one but their sales guys in Sweden is shit, so bought a VW headrest for my Toyota instead... 80euro vs the cost of a new car 🤦🙊
I don't know why more cars don't come with the front/back adjustable headrest. Cost maybe? I find my head never just sits on the headrest. Shame about the Zeekr sales guy though, that sucks.
Thank You 4 Subscribing 😃
Can't bring myself to ask it with my own face. Haha.
Got a lot of Lucid look on to it
Definitely hints in there.
Too bad we won’t get to have these cars in N.America 😢
Really is too bad.
i hope you get to test the Aito M9, luxeed s7
As do I.
New BAIC Stelato is stretch version of Luxceed, the competition is intense. Huawei is already making a profit CEO said as per cnevpost
@@ciybersal3499 I so much love the design of the STELATO S9... Looks so amazing
Simply & stunningly beautiful. Makes any and every Tesla model look absolutely boring....and dare I say uninspiring.
It is a stunner. Tesla need to up their game.
European carmakers will need to step it up when it comes to infotainment systems and battery tech! My Volvo AAOS infotainment looks sooooo outdated compared to the Chinese infotainment systems. And 13 minutes to charge from 10-80% is just friking awesome, that's half the time it takes my car to charge the same percentage with a smaller battery.
The future for electric cars is looking bright though. I love how they drive, how silent they are and I certainly don't miss the smell of the exhaust.
Great looking car but that trunk is too small for me. Looking forward to the stationwagon version of this if it ever comes.
You still on the old Google system they have with the vertical screen? That thing really sucks but their new stuff should be better. EX30 is also on the SEA platform so it should drive quite well but I haven't tried it.
@@InsideChinaAuto correct. It was just updated to Android 12 last month but nothing really changed, it's still very limited. No split screen option, no AA support (which has a lot more apps) and yeah the 9" vertical screen looks really outdated.
The best thing about it is Google Maps which works really great but Volvo hardly adds anything new or innovative.
@larsvaneynde4281 Think they'll be changing that in future. They know they're going to be the dull boys in the Geely Group if they don't up their software game.
Nice design… but a small opening, no ski gate, so how is it practical for a saloon? How flat is the floor with the seats down?
Not totally flat but it's a saloon, most don't go totally flat. Suspect they may add a ski hatch for Europe.
Absolutely agree on design, and also the missing ski hatch. I've driven my my car for over 20 years now, without, and my next shall have a ski hatch. Hope the chinese don't exclude themselves.
@ralphruzomberok6361 Suppose it kind of depends how much of the population in Europe really goes skiing or owns skis. I'd wager it's less than 5% in total. I certainly don't own any. I can fit my football in the boot but I might struggle with a go-kart.
@@InsideChinaAuto iIf not skis, then somthing else that's too long
Misty exotic landscapes, driver's chatter, muted noise of EV - it feels like good AMSR 😊
Haha. I need to open a second channel for just that.
Huge missed opportunity not to have a hatchback tailgate. That’s so disappointing other wise I really like it and was considering it
Hopefully they're bringing a wagon out at some point. Let's see.
It kinda looks nice a Lucid Air
Back end definitely has those vibes
My Score: 6/10
The car looks amazing except the following issues:
1. Lack of Instrument Cluster Cover and a Bland looking Interior
2. The Wraparound Front Headlights - unnecessary
3. The Black Section on the Frt Fenders - looks out of place
4. Unnecessary Glass Roof - a lost opportunity to reduce weight and cost
With you on the interior. Bit too Tesla across the dash. Needs more visual flair, like the X has.
6/10 I never give any Elon fake musk EV no worth most dangerous EV how many died by Elon burn battery around the world how many crashed nobody talks about cover up news so this car only worth 9/10 for that level budget money is a lot given us so go check all talk positive for test quality for that level budget is worth
@@InsideChinaAuto The new ZEEKR 001 has a stunning interior.
@@honesty_-no9he Much more interesting to look at than this one inside, that's for sure.
7:20 you finally mention Tesla
Not that they deserve it.
No mention of safety ratings, crash and roll tests.
Would you like me to demonstrate them in the video? Not sure Zeekr would lend me a car again. As it stands there are no crash test ratings for this car but given all other SEA platform cars tested by EuroNCAP (smart #1 and #3, Zeekr X and Zeekr 001) all got 5 stars, I'd expect the same here.
Zeekr 007 Lucid Air
Definitely a very slippery thing much like the Air is.
Will be a ccs2 for EU or all gb/t??
CCS2 for Europe.
What the other guy said. It'll be whatever you need in your market I would guess.
What is the range and can you charge at the supercharger network
Range is 688km with RWD and the 75kWh battery, 616 with the dual motor and 75kWh battery, and 660km with the dual motor Performance edition with the 100kWh battery. With the 100kWh battery on the single motor version they claim 870km, but bear in mind all those numbers are on CLTC so reduce by 20-25%.
As for the supercharging network, they should be OK to charge on those open to other brands but I can't confirm that. I've never used the supercharger network so not sure what plug they use in China.
@@InsideChinaAuto With all the Teslas in China I would assume that all the cars there would e compatible with NACS.
Tesla is King!
@MrCountrycuz In the rest of the world maybe but in China they're nowhere near the best electric cars out there.
I truly hope our politicians in Canada will not be absolute clowns and prioritize American corporations/billionaires over every day citizens. We need these Chinese EVs without tarifs. I’d buy a Xiaomi SU7 Performance or maybe a Zeeker 007 Performance or Nio ET5 😭
You'd be wise to do so. All lovely cars.
You shouldn't expect more from Trudeau.
I think if they should stick with the signature headlights like 001 or X rather than this hidden LEDs inside the cover!
It'll be interesting to see where they go next with this idea.
@@InsideChinaAuto this just looks like every other concept cars with no identity! Brand identity is important. If BMW looses its kidney grille, it's no longer BMW! Customers will turn away!
@thehuonpine Well BMW has only gone and made its kidney grille the most hideous thing on the market right now, leaving anybody who doesn't have an ego the size of Gibraltar turn away in disgust.
MACH-E has no door handles we have that in the UK.
Does that go for the buttons too? Last year when they launched the X at Shanghai they offered one with handles because in Europe you need them. Maybe the UK doesn't have that problem.
@@InsideChinaAuto Well actually I do believe FORD should offer door handles for TAXIS.. Customers should not have to figure out how to enter a cab. They have door handles on the NISSAN ARIYA to avoid the EV weird factor. MACH-E entry is fine for private owners. It makes sense no to insist on any that could be a turn-off. In the USA German cars like E-TRON are not allowed to offer cameras instead of wing mirrors.
It's capable of 60kW DC charge sharing😮😮😮🤯🤯??? Is that what he said?
That's what he said.
Is there a dealer who can export to europe? (EU certificate?)
I can put you in touch with one if you're serious about it. The import stuff is the challenge.
@@InsideChinaAuto would be great!
@@sandroegelhofer1817 Send over an email (channel info page). Let's see what we can do.
Well, the Zeekr is more a Swedish EV
They have over 30 nationalities in their design team.
Design yes but the engineering is done in China.
@@honesty_-no9he That is not true.
Almost 1000 ppl are working in Gothenburg with Zeekr EVs. The team consists of enginers, developers and designers from many countries.
They work together with colleagus in Ningbo and Shanghai, but the main work is located in Gothenburg
I think I'd be terrified of a car which, by your account, incorporates [or will] at least 35 electronic features. BTW, I'm no Luddite and do appreciate your presentation formatting and love of the auto - [now, why did I sell my go-anywhere, totally reliable and super-comfortable Renault 16TS?]
government mandate, you need those electronics to reach 5 star ncap.
Wake up and see the light buddy!
Well I mean I love my original Mini which had a grand total of 6 switches inside, but this is clearly a car for the 21st century. I'm not sure the Mini was for anything after the 18th century.
3:11 *Lucid
Very much Lucid vibes at the rear
Lets hope Zeekr doesn't end up like Fisker hitting bankruptcy.
Not likely. They're owned by Geely and they're doing very well so very little chance of getting binned anytime soon.
@@InsideChinaAuto They also own Polestar their share price has bottomed from lack of interest in the brand.
@stuartthrupp7133 Well yeah but they had one car for about 2 years and it's a massive flop in China because it's expensive and too small in the back. With the 3 and 4 they'll have a better chance, but they need to convince people with their product. Zeekr already have that.
It looks like a Saab model had Saab still remained in business.
That'll be the Swedish influence. Love the 9-5.
I miss Saab. Great automobiles.
Now if only a Tesla looks like this it would be perfect. 😅
I will buy one if it is available in Hawaii. ❤❤❤❤❤
Good luck. That's a US state.
Given how down right dangerous Chinese self drive systems are I would have appreciated a recording of the self driving modes in action rather than "it works don't worry about it".
Interesting, the exact same comment posted 1 minute apart from two different accounts. Either way, I don't record video of highway lane centering programs, nobody would watch, so I only include when sharing urban autonomous driving videos and it wasn't enabled on my car so no dice.
50,000 + in Europe then
Probably. I'd have it over an EQE any day of the week.
Car is fantastic, wouldn't mind to get one. My complain is your filming, at least try to make your shots grading look more similar (I get that its filmed with at least 3 different cameras, but you cant look red, yellow and car blue and gray in same video, it's just annoying to watch). Try to film in same profiles, same wb, colpr it to look more similar and its gonna be 5x better video! Sorry about this but I had to 😢
The problem is the cameras don't all have the same colour profile so when editing in Premiere Pro the picture you see is nothing like the output, so I did go back and forward quite a bit trying to remove how pink it made me look but obviously not enough. The bright sun and then rain halfway through the day didn't help either. I'll get a cameraman one day who knows what he's doing because it's just me at the moment.
@@InsideChinaAuto well for a start use LOG files for filming..drone and action cam should be lot easier to sync with main camera that way.
@@b2unoo7 Thanks for the advice
Now I understand why Elon is betting all on FSD or nothing, those cars are well made
Geely really build cars very nicely.
From what I saw in China social media, Huawei have a brilliant self driving module which are installed in a number of EV such as Aito cars. From the numerous reviews in UA-cam, I think it’s probably a better system than FSD.
It is easily to be cheated by Chinese carmakers on those "futuristic" features. How many safety features have been talked about?
I don't talk much about safety features anymore because most cars get the whole range as standard by law. Every car on this platform has gotten 5 stars in EuroNCAP including its big brother the 001. Trust me, you won't have any safety issues with this brand, I mean the chassis was designed by a Swedish ex-Volvo engineer and they know what they're on about.
Lucid air replica 😅
The back definitely has some clear resemblance.
The clam shell is a copy of the Lucid EV. Not liking it. Everything else is really awesome.
The bootlid is certainly very similar to the Air.
Looks like a squished lucid air, just with much worse packaging all around
For about 1/5th of the price or less. I'll take this one thanks.
BBC and CNN previously accused China of excessive carbon emissions.Now China has become the world's largest producer of solar energy equipment and new energy vehicles.At this time, the United States began to say that China has overcapacity in new energy vehicles and solar energy equipment.But only 6 trillion tax revenue.There is a debt gap of 30 trillion, but at the same time, it is necessary Give Ukraine 60 billion dollars for the war.US would rather give tax income money to other countries than improve domestic infrastructure construction.
Truth is, nobody wants to commit, they like lining their pockets and their friends' pockets, so the rest of the world won't reach the goals they set because they're not serious about them.
Lucid has no future.
Not unless they can sell a car as good as the Air for this price.
Instead of going on and on about power domes that don't exist, you should've drawn attention to the seamless door body-window transition. Also, it doesn't matter that you're avoiding talking about Lucid Air. It's a complete rip-off with some minor changes here and there.
I've never had the pleasure of seeing a Lucid Air in person so I did go remind myself how it looks. Can't deny, the shape of the boot in particular and the two-tone roof are both very similar. I think this is much smaller in real life, but both very graceful looking cars. I might have to ask them about that similarity.
does lucid have that fancy outside screen which can show messages? this EV does 0-100 in 2.8 seconds and has a range of 870km. All that for under 50k USD. Lucid hardly sells cars because their products are overpriced. Zeekr on the other hand sells about 20k units per month.
@@cwdjdsd-36321cs blah blah blah. They ripped off Lucid's design and you know it. Pointing to the minor tweaks they could be bothered to make doesn't absolve them of that crime - makes you look like a salty loser
@@biggeststeppa1 lmao who's the loser here, not me for sure. Lucid hardly sells any cars and is on the verge of bankruptcy. Zeekr is owned by geely who owns Volvo,polestar, lotus,Smart and many other brands. Their EVs leave competitors like Tesla in the dust when it comes to performance and technology.
@@biggeststeppa1 Most Chinese EVs are designed by former European designers. Who cares Even if they look like European cars. Foreign automakers are losing to Chinese EV companies in china which is the biggest vehicle market. They are even buying EV platforms and tech from Chinese EV companies.
With this, we have reached the ideal condition of a car, but the annoying and ugly thing that distorts the design and appearance of any car especially an electric car, which is the front vehicle number plate.
Yes, a statutory legal topic, but we really want to push this topic forward to remove it (like some united states of America). Great review with a wonderful camera though.
Glad you liked the review. Indeed, would be nice to remove number plates and just have maybe some kind of digital handshake, or simply just rear plates and cameras facing that direction.
@@InsideChinaAuto Thank you for your response. Yes, for example, just look at the front of the BYD Han, Avatr 11, Xiaomi SU7, Nio and so many car brands, and with this big chinese vehicle plates !! I don't believe how such astonishing arts that would be distorted and ruined by this plate.But I am sure that Chinese innovations can bring technical solutions.
These people did a great job at copying tesla but I still think I’m safer in a tesla than this cheaper copy of a model 3.
Haha, you Tesla stans, you do make me laugh. If this is a copy of anything, it's a Lucid Air. Tesla design has nothing on this. This is also a far superior chassis in every way.
Very accident friendly car 😂😂😂
That light panel will cost a pretty penny to replace.
...a cheap chinese copy of Lucid.. like so many other cars they try to copy
this car kick porsche and tesla ass on the circuit tho
Cheap (insert country) copy of every other criticism of Chinese cars.
Lmao zeekr cars are designed in Sweden and this does 0-100 in 2.8 seconds and has a range of 870km. All that for under 50k USD. Plus who cares about lucid, a company that's hardly making cars 😂
Also many Chinese EVs are designed by former European designers. Does that mean they like to copy their own design ideas 😂
Why is the interior of every Chinese BEV essentially the same, and in a bad way the same?! The Chinese have no imagination? Those dinky little instrument after-thought computer-screen panels in front of the driver plus those iPads-glued-to-dashboard infotainment screens with no physical buttons/switches are horrible & too influenced by brain-dead-design Tesla … ditto with the receding/missing door handles
Don't think I can agree with that. You only need to look at the Zeekr X to see that they can do cool interiors too, but I agree that the tablet screen thing isn't exactly being done in a unique way on the whole. It's an EV thing in general, put it all on the screen, and then what do you do with it? Design only really comes from buttons and if you don't have any, what do you do? This one is too Tesla, you're right, but with nicer details.
Still, you could have the abortion that is a Mercedes interior with disco decor inside and Windows 95 graphics on your screen.
The door handles are obviously for aero which is important in an electric car, though I like those on the Polestar 2.
For your information zeekr cars are designed by geely's design team in Sweden. So this was designed by Europeans
This likely means the best practice has been reached in EV car era.
Lucid design 😂
Back end is super similar.
It’s more like the zeekr George Lazenby. It’s about as ugly as every other car today.
Might be one you have to see in person. Beats a Beemer (but what doesn't these days?)
Given how down right dangerous Chinese self drive systems are I would have appreciated a recording of the self driving modes in action rather than "it works don't worry about it".
Interesting, the exact same comment posted 1 minute apart from two different accounts. Either way, I don't record video of highway lane centering programs, nobody would watch, so I only include when sharing urban autonomous driving videos and it wasn't enabled on my car so no dice.
