The Zeekr 7X is available for order in the Netherlands, Sweden and Norway, with first customer deliveries expected in summer 2025.
Zeekr (NYSE: ZK) has rolled out the Zeekr 7X family SUV (sport utility vehicle) in Europe, its third European offering after the Zeekr 001 shooting brake and Zeekr X compact SUV.
The Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker today announced that the Zeekr 7X is available for pre-sales in Europe, with orders now being taken in the Netherlands, Sweden and Norway, and first customer deliveries expected in the summer of 2025.
The model starts at 52,990 euros ($55,710) in the Netherlands, 529,000 Swedish kronor ($48,240) in Sweden and 539,900 Norwegian kronor ($48,360) in Norway.
The Zeekr 7X was launched in China on September 20, and is Zeekr's second model for the mainstream EV market after the Zeekr 007 sedan, with deliveries beginning on September 21.
The model is offered in three variants in China, with starting prices of RMB 229,900 ($31,570), RMB 249,900 and RMB 269,900 respectively.
The higher prices in Europe are mainly due to factors including tariffs and transportation costs.
Designed by Zeekr's global design center in Gothenburg, Sweden, the Zeekr 7X utilizes the same Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA) modular vehicle architecture as the Zeekr 001 and Zeekr X.
“The Zeekr 7X will play a key role in our mission to accelerate the shift to sustainable mobility in Europe,” said Lothar Schupet, Zeekr Europe Chief Commercial Officer.
The model available in Europe measures 4,787 millimeters in length, 1,650 mm in height and has a wheelbase of 2,900 mm. For comparison, the Zeekr 7X in China measures 4,825 mm in length, 1,930 mm in width and 1,656/1,666 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,925 mm.
The Zeekr 7X is available in Europe in three variants -- Premium, Long Range, and Performance -- the first two being single-motor rear-wheel-drive models, and the last being a dual-motor four-wheel-drive model.
The Premium and Long Range models have a single 310 kW (421 PS) / 440 Nm motor on the rear axle and have an estimated range of 480 km and 615 km respectively.
The Performance model has two electric motors integrated on the front and rear axles, with a total output of 470 kW (639 PS), instantaneous torque of 710 Nm and acceleration from 0-100 km/h in 3.8 seconds.
The Premium model uses Zeekr's Golden Battery, a 75-kWh battery pack with LFP cells, while the Long Range and Performance models use a 100-kWh battery pack with NMC cells.
The car is built on an 800 V high-voltage architecture with peak charging power of up to 480 kW. Using today's common 360 kW fast chargers, the Zeekr 7X Premium can be recharged to 10-80 percent in 13 minutes, and the Long Range, Performance models in 16 minutes, according to the company.
Zeekr is actively expanding its international presence, having entered more than 40 major international markets, including Sweden, Australia, UAE, Singapore and Mexico.
In Europe, the EV maker began pre-sales of the Zeekr 001 and Zeekr X there in June 2023, with deliveries beginning last December.
To date, Zeekr has rolled out the Zeekr 001 and Zeekr X in Sweden, the Netherlands, and Germany.
The company delivered 27,011 vehicles in November, the third consecutive month of record highs, according to figures it announced on December 1. This is up 106.13 percent from 13,104 vehicles in the same period last year and up 7.83 percent from 25,049 in October.
In the January-November period, Zeekr delivered 194,933 vehicles, up 85.28 percent year-on-year. It aims to deliver 230,000 vehicles in the 2024 full year.
